Being a metabolic disorder, it can occur from incorrect digestibility, reduced magnesium absorption (primary deficiency) or associated metabolic factors that reduce Mg intake (secondary deficiency). The disease occurs in ruminants and is responsible for important economic losses in beef herds in Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>A recent study by the Instituto Nacional de Tecnolog\u00eda Agropecuaria (INTA), in partnership with the Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata, analyzed the retrospective of the last 20 years, reviewing the cases of clinical hypomagnesemia in beef cattle registered at the INTA Veterinary Diagnostic Service. Balcarce, Argentina.

Anamnestic, epidemiological, clinical, and biochemical information were used to confirm the etiologic diagnosis. Blood Mg levels were tested using atomic absorption spectroscopy (Perkin Elmer AAnalyst 700, CT, USA), and climate information was obtained from the INTA Balcarce meteorological center.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5947\" style=\"width: 691px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5947\" class=\"wp-image-5947 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/pressreleases.scielo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/img-3.jpg\" alt=\"Vertical horizontal photo.
