[PMID: 38785302 PMCID: PMC11132858 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2355354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Serum magnesium levels exceeding 0.9 mmol/L are associated with increased survival rates in patients with CKD. This retrospective study aimed to identify risk factors for cardio-cerebrovascular events among patients receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and to examine their correlations with serum magnesium levels. Sociodemographic data, clinical physiological and biochemical indexes, and cardio-cerebrovascular event data were collected from 189 patients undergoing CAPD. Risk factors associated with cardio-cerebrovascular events were identified by univariate binary logistic regression analysis. Correlations between the risk factors and serum magnesium levels were determined by correlation analysis. Univariate regression analysis identified age, C-reactive protein (CRP), red cell volume distribution width standard deviation, red cell volume distribution width corpuscular volume, serum albumin, serum potassium, serum sodium, serum chlorine, serum magnesium, and serum uric acid as risk factors for cardio-cerebrovascular events. Among them, serum magnesium ≤0.8 mmol/L had the highest odds ratio (3.996). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that serum magnesium was an independent risk factor, while serum UA (<440 μmol/L) was an independent protective factor for cardio-cerebrovascular events. The incidence of cardio-cerebrovascular events differed significantly among patients with different grades of serum magnesium (χ2 = 12.023, p = 0.002), with the highest incidence observed in patients with a serum magnesium concentration <0.8 mmol/L. High serum magnesium levels were correlated with high levels of serum albumin (r = 0.399, p < 0.001), serum potassium (r = 0.423, p < 0.001), and serum uric acid (r = 0.411, p < 0.001), and low levels of CRP (r = -0.279, p < 0.001). In conclusion, low serum magnesium may predict cardio-cerebrovascular events in patients receiving CAPD.

Cardiovascular and All-Cause Mortality Is Affected by Serum Magnesium and Diet Pattern in a Cohort of Dialysis Patients. J Clin Med 2024; 13:4024. [PMID: 39064068 PMCID: PMC11277800 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13144024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2024] [Revised: 07/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Hypomagnesaemia is associated with an increased overall mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis (CKD-5D). Mediterranean-style diet (MD), having a high magnesium content, can serve as a form of dietary magnesium supplementation. We examined whether there is a potential link between increased Mediterranean Diet score (MDS) and elevated serum magnesium (sMg) to assess its impact on reducing mortality risk in CKD-5D patients. Methods: In this multi-center prospective observational study, 117 CKD-5D patients (66 on hemodialysis and 51 on peritoneal dialysis) with a mean age of 62 ± 15 years were studied for a median follow-up period of 68 months. After baseline assessment, including measurement of sMg and MDS, all patients were followed up for cardiovascular (CV) and all-cause mortality. Results: Forty deaths occurred, 58% of which were cardiovascular. Patients who were above the median value of sMg (2.2 mg/dL) had a 66% reduction in CV (crude HR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.11-0.70), and 49% reduction in all-cause (crude HR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.27-0.96) mortality, even after adjustment for age, malnutrition inflammation score, left ventricular mass index, peripheral vascular disease and diabetes. Similar results were obtained when sMg was analyzed as a continuous variable. sMg was associated directly with MDS (r = 0.230; p = 0.012). Conclusions: Higher sMg levels are strongly and independently associated with reduced CV and all-cause mortality in CKD-5D patients. A strong correlation exists between MDS and sMg. Elevated sMg levels, achieved through MD adherence, can significantly reduce CV mortality, implicating MD as a mediator of the association between sMg and CV mortality.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to establish a prediction model in peritoneal dialysis patients to estimate the risk of technique failure and guide clinical practice. METHODS Clinical and laboratory data of 424 adult peritoneal dialysis patients were retrospectively collected. The risk prediction models were built using univariate Cox regression, best subsets approach and LASSO Cox regression. Final nomogram was constructed based on the best model selected by the area under the curve. RESULTS After comparing three models, the nomogram was built using the LASSO Cox regression model. This model included variables consisting of hypertension and peritonitis, serum creatinine, low-density lipoprotein, fibrinogen and thrombin time, and low red blood cell count, serum albumin, triglyceride and prothrombin activity. The predictive model constructed performed well using receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve value, C-index and calibration curve. CONCLUSION This study developed and verified a new prediction instrument for the risk of technique failure among peritoneal dialysis patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) represents one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular mortality in dialysis patients. Low serum magnesium Mg is related with increased mortality in general and dialysis population. Aim of our study was to evaluate the association of Mg with LVH and cardiac geometry in dialysis patients. METHODS Hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients from nine nephrology departments were included. Echocardiographic LVH was defined by LV mass index > 95 g/m2 in women and > 115 g/m2 in men. Four LV geometric patterns were defined: normal, concentric remodeling, eccentric LVH and concentric LVH. Demographic and laboratory data were collected. RESULTS 133 patients (68 HD, 65 PD) with a median age of 63 years (IQR 52-74) were studied. Mg correlated positively with creatinine, HDL and negatively with CRP levels and BMI. There were no significant differences in Mg between the modality groups. 80 patients presented LVH (43 HD and 37 PD patients). Patients with LVH were older (median age 68 vs 55 years, p < 0.001), with higher BMI (median 26.9 vs 24.7 kg/m2, p = 0.009), had a history of PVD or CAD (55% vs 30.2%, p = 0.003), had higher pulse pressure (median 60 vs 50, p = 0.017), MIS score (median 5 vs 4, p = 0.011), lower albumin (median 3.5 vs 3.8 g/dl, p = 0.011) and Mg levels (median 2.1 vs 2.4 mg/dl, p < 0.001). In univariate analysis age, CVD comorbidities, pulse pressure, CRP, BMI, albumin, Mg, MIS and use of b-blockers or calcium blockers were LVH predictors. In multivariate analysis, Mg was an independent predictor of LVH, adjusted for age, MIS and b-blockers. Considering LV geometry, lower Mg levels were mainly correlated with concentric LVH. CONCLUSION Low serum magnesium levels seem to be an independent factor for LVH in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients.

Abstract
OBJECTS This study aimed to determine the relationship between magnesium and PTH levels in peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients. METHODS This cross-sectional study was performed on HD and PD patients in Kerman, Iran. After recording demographic and clinical data, the pre-dialysis levels of hemoglobin, 25-hydroxy vitamin D, ferritin, creatinine, calcium, phosphorus, albumin, PTH, and magnesium were measured for all patients. The P value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Magnesium levels in PD patients were significantly higher than in HD patients (P < 0.001). The median PTH level in PD patients was significantly lower than in HD patients (P = 0.046). The correlation between PTH and serum magnesium levels was not significant in PD or HD patients. In the regression model, dialysis modality (PD or HD) was the only significant variable in determining serum magnesium levels (P = 0.005). CONCLUSION Magnesium is a neglected ion in peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis patients. In dialysis centers that use a dialysate with standard magnesium concentration (0.5 mmol/L in HD and 0.75 mmol/L in PD), special attention is necessary to hypomagnesia and its complications because magnesium levels in PD patients were significantly higher than in HD patients. As the correlation between magnesium and PTH levels in both PD and HD patients were not significant, the association of high magnesium levels with low PTH in PD patients should be considered in terms of increasing the potential for adynamic bone disease. It seems that ordering serum magnesium in the routine tests of dialysis patients is necessary.

Abstract
Background Malnutrition-inflammation-atherosclerosis (MIA) syndrome is caused by the inflammatory cytokines in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, and MIA complex-related factors may be associated with hypomagnesemia and mortality. However, the association between serum magnesium level and mortality for dialysis patients is still not clear. Additionally, no meta-analysis has investigated the impact of serum magnesium on peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis, separately. Methods We searched published studies in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Collaboration Central Register of Controlled Clinical Trials, and Cochrane Systematic Reviews through April 2022. Studies associated with serum magnesium and all-cause mortality or cardiovascular (CV) mortality in ESRD on kidney replacement therapy (KRT) patients were included. A hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) was used to report the outcomes. Results Twenty-one studies involving 55,232 patients were included. Overall, there was a significant association between hypomagnesemia and all-cause mortality for dialysis patients (HR: 1.67, 95% CI [1.412-2.00], p < 0.001; certainty of evidence: moderate) using a mixed unadjusted and adjusted HR for analysis. There was also a significantly increased risk of CV mortality for individuals with hypomagnesemia compared with the non-hypomagnesemia group (HR 1.56, 95% CI [1.08-2.25], p < 0.001; certainty of evidence: moderate). In addition, a subgroup analysis demonstrated that hypomagnesemia was associated with a high risk of both all-cause mortality and CV mortality (all-cause mortality, HR:1.80, 95% CI [1.48-2.19]; CV mortality, HR:1.84, 95% CI [1.10-3.07]) in hemodialysis (HD) patients, but not in participants receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD; all-cause mortality, HR:1.26, 95% CI [0.84-1.91]; CV mortality, HR:0.66, 95% CI [0.22-2.00]). The systematic review protocol was prespecified and registered in PROSPERO [CRD42021256187]. Conclusions Hypomagnesemia may be a significant risk factor for all-cause mortality and CV mortality in KRT patients, especially in those receiving hemodialysis. However, because of the limited certainty of evidence, more studies are required to investigate this association.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Magnesium (Mg) disturbances are related to cardiac, bone, and renal patient mortality. In this study, we compared biochemical markers in hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients and explored the influencing factors of serum Mg in stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD5) patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS All 598 patients with CKD5 from three medical centers in South China were recruited into this prospective cohort study from March 1, 2018, to January 31, 2021. Our study recorded the clinical characteristics and laboratory data of the patients. RESULTS Hemodialysis patients (0.99 ± 0.19 mmol/L) had a higher mean serum Mg level than PD patients (0.86 ± 0.20 mmol/L; p < 0.01). Regression analysis showed that only corrected calcium (Ca), phosphate (P), Ca/Mg, Ca × P, albumin (Alb), total protein and creatine (Cr) predicted Mg levels in CKD5 patients (p < 0.01). Ca/Mg predicts hypomagnesemia with 78% sensitivity and 85% specificity in CKD5 patients. The AUC value corresponding to Ca/Mg was 0.88. CONCLUSIONS This multicenter study in southern China showed that for all CKD5 patients, corrected Ca and Alb had a significant positive effect on serum Mg, while Ca/Mg had a significant negative effect on serum Mg. In 123 HD patients, Ca × P was positively associated with Mg while Ca/Mg and P were negatively associated with Mg. In 398 PD patients, Ca × P, Alb, and total protein were positively associated with Mg while Ca/Mg and P were negatively associated with Mg. In 77 non-dialysis patients, corrected Ca, Cr, and total protein were positively associated with Mg while Ca/Mg was negatively associated with Mg. Furthermore, Ca/Mg might be another useful technique to monitor blood Mg levels in CKD5 patients. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION ChiCTR1800014557.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some studies have found that hypomagnesemia is associated with vascular calcification, atherosclerosis, and cardiovascular disease, which may lead to increased mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) who need to maintain hemodialysis (HD). However, the conclusion of these studies remain controversial. METHODS Relevant literature was retrieved from the database of Cochrane library, PubMed, EMBASE, and CNKI until December 2020, without any language restrictions. The data was analyzed using the Stata 12.0 software. RESULTS A total of 31 studies were included, involving 205436 participants. The results showed that after multivariable adjusted, hypomagnesemia was significant associated with the risk of all-cause mortality in patients with CKD and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) (hazard ratios [HR] 1.955; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.511-2.528; P = .000; hypomagnesemia vs normal magnesium or hypermagnesemia). In contrast, in patients with CKD and ESRD, hypermagnesemia was negatively correlated with all-cause mortality (HR 0.873; 95% CI 0.793-0.960; P = .005) (per unit increase). Moreover, in the adjusted model, it was observed that hypermagnesemia was significantly associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular death (HR 0.598; 95% CI 0.094-1.102, P = .020). In addition, subgroup analysis found that hypomagnesemia was closely related to the increase of all-cause mortality in HD patients (HR 1.799; 95% CI 1.375-2.354; P = .000) (hypomagnesemia vs normal magnesium or hypermagnesemia). CONCLUSION Our results show that hypomagnesemia is significantly associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in maintenance HD patients. Further studies should be conducted to evaluate the benefits of magnesium correction in maintenance dialysis patients with hypomagnesemia.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) is a pivotal and very complex component of healthy aging in the cardiovascular-muscle-bone triad. Low Mg levels and low Mg intake are common in the general aging population and are associated with poorer outcomes than higher levels, including vascular calcification, endothelial dysfunction, osteoporosis, or muscle dysfunction/sarcopenia. While Mg supplementation appears to reverse these processes and benefit the triad, more randomized clinical trials are needed. These will allow improvement of preventive and curative strategies and propose guidelines regarding the pharmaceutical forms and the dosages and durations of treatment in order to optimize and adapt Mg prescription for healthy aging and for older vulnerable persons with comorbidities.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cognitive impairment (CI) is common in patients with CKD or diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the relevance between DM and CI in diabetic patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) has not been clearly established. This study aimed to explore the role of DM in CI, the association of glycemic control with CI, and clinical outcomes of CI in diabetic PD patients. METHODS Continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) patients followed up in our PD center between 2014 and 2016 were enrolled. The participants were followed until an endpoint was reached or December 2017. Demographic data and clinical characteristics were collected, and laboratory parameters were measured. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) was used to evaluate global cognitive function, and a score of <26 was considered to indicate CI. A propensity score matching according to age, gender, and mean arterial pressure was conducted between the DM and non-DM groups. RESULTS A total of 913 CAPD patients were enrolled, of whom 186 (20.4%) had diabetes. After appropriate matching, 175 patients in the DM group and 270 patients in the non-DM group were included. Patients with diabetes had a higher prevalence of CI and lower scores for visuospatial/executive function, naming, language, delayed recall, and orientation. Higher HbA1c (odds ratio [OR], 1.547; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.013-2.362) and cardiovascular disease (CVD; OR, 2.926; 95% CI, 1.139-7.516) significantly correlated with a risk of CI in diabetic patients. During a median of 26.0 (interquartile range 13.5-35.6) months of follow-up, diabetic patients with CI demonstrated a significantly lower survival rate than those without CI, and CI was an independent risk factor for mortality after adjustment (hazard ratio, 7.224; 95% CI, 1.694-30.806). However, they did not show worse technique survival or higher peritonitis rate than patients without CI. CONCLUSIONS HbA1c and CVD are independent risk factors for CI in diabetic patients undergoing CAPD, and CI is independently associated with a higher risk of mortality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular mortality is significantly increased in kidney failure with replacement therapy (KFRT) patients, which is partly mediated by enhanced vascular calcification. Magnesium appears to have anticalcifying capabilities, and hypomagnesemia has been associated with increased mortality in KFRT patients. Ionized magnesium represents the biologically and physiologically active form. As serum ionized magnesium (Mgion ) is difficult to assess in clinical routine estimating equations derived from routinely assessed laboratory parameters could facilitate medical treatment. METHODS We developed equations to estimate serum Mgion using linear regression analysis in 191 hemodialysis (HD) patients. Reference test was measured ionized magnesium (Mgion ). As index tests, we chose estimated Mgion using total magnesium (Mgtot ) and other laboratory and demographic variable candidates. Equations were internally validated, using 749 subsequent Mgion measurements. FINDINGS The median patient age was 65 years, 67.5% of the patients were male. Median (interquartile range [IQR]) measured Mgion was 0.64 [0.57, 0.72] mmol/L, 11 (6%) patients were hypo- (i.e., <0.45 mmol/L) and 127 (66%) were hypermagnesemic (>0.60 mmol/L). The final equation at the end of the development process included Mgtot , serum ionized, and total calcium concentrations. In the validation dataset, bias (i.e., median difference between measured and estimated Mgion , -0.017 [-0.020, -0.014] mmol/L) and precision (i.e., IQR of bias 0.043 [0.039, 0.047] mmol/L) were small, 90% [88, 93] of estimated values were ±10% of measured values. The equation detected normomagnesemia with overall good diagnostic accuracy (area under the receiver-operating curve 0.91 [0.89, 0.93]). DISCUSSION Mgion can be estimated from equations containing routinely assessed laboratory variables with high accuracy and good overall performance. These equations might simplify the assessment of ionized magnesium levels in the individual hemodialysis patients and help the treating physician to guide the overall treatment.

Hypomagnesemia Is a Risk Factor for Cardiovascular Disease- and Noncardiovascular Disease-Related Mortality in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients. Blood Purif 2021; 51:23-30. [PMID: 33882494 DOI: 10.1159/000514148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Recent research has shown that hypomagnesemia is associated with increased all-cause mortality in hemodialysis patients. However, the relationship between the long-term prognosis of peritoneal dialysis (PD) and the study is not yet clear. This study will analyze the effects of hypomagnesemia on all-cause, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and non-CVD mortality in PD patients. METHOD In a retrospective cohort study, 1,004 samples were selected from 7 PD centers in China. Based on the baseline blood magnesium level at the beginning of stable dialysis, all patients were classified into blood magnesium <0.7 mmol/L group, 0.7-1.2 mmol/L group, and >1.2 mmol/L group (the end event was death). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the difference in cumulative survival rate; the Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the risk factors of all-cause, CVD, and non-CVD death causes. RESULTS Cox multiple regression analysis results (reference comparison of 0.7-1.2 mmol/L group): patients with serum magnesium <0.7 mmol/L have a higher risk ratio of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.580, 95% CI: 1.222-2.042, p = 0.001), and it is also obvious after correction by multiple models (HR = 1.578, 95% CI: 1.196-2.083, p = 0.001). Subgroup analysis of the causes of death was as follows: CVD risk (HR = 1.628, 95% CI: 1.114-2.379, p = 0.012) and non-CVD risk (HR = 1.521, 95% CI: 1.011-2.288, p = 0.044). Further analysis of the causes of infection-related death in non-CVD is also significant (HR = 1.919, 95% CI: 1.131-3.1257, p = 0.016). On the other hand, the serum magnesium>1.2 mmol/L group had lower all-cause mortality after correction (HR = 0.687, 95% CI: 0.480-0.985, p = 0.041), and subgroup analysis of the cause of death had no statistical significance (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Hypomagnesemia (serum magnesium <0.7 mmol/L) during stable dialysis in PD patients is a risk factor for CVD- and non-CVD-related mortality, especially infection-related death causes.

Prognostic Value of Serum Magnesium in Mortality Risk among Patients on Hemodialysis: A Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies. KIDNEY DISEASES 2021; 7:24-33. [PMID: 33614731 PMCID: PMC7879293 DOI: 10.1159/000510513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2020] [Accepted: 07/26/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Background Previous studies have reported that serum magnesium (Mg) deficiency is involved in the development of heart failure, particularly in patients with end-stage kidney disease. The association between serum Mg levels and mortality risk in patients receiving hemodialysis is controversial. We aimed to estimate the prognostic value of serum Mg concentration on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in patients receiving hemodialysis. Methods We did a systematic literature search in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science to identify eligible studies that reported the prognostic value of serum Mg levels in mortality risk among patients on hemodialysis. We performed a meta-analysis by pooling and analyzing hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results We identified 13 observational studies with an overall sample of 42,967 hemodialysis patients. Higher all-cause mortality (adjusted HR 1.58 [95% CI: 1.31–1.91]) and higher cardiovascular mortality (adjusted HR 3.08 [95% CI: 1.27–7.50]) were found in patients with lower serum Mg levels after multivariable adjustment. There was marked heterogeneity (I<sup>2</sup> = 79.6%, p < 0.001) that was partly explained by differences in age stratification and study area. In addition, subgroup analysis showed that a serum Mg concentration of ≤1.1 mmol/L might be the vigilant cutoff value. Conclusion A lower serum Mg level was associated with higher all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in patients receiving hemodialysis.

The association between circulating magnesium and clinically relevant outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Clin Nutr 2020; 40:3133-3147. [PMID: 33419615 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2020.12.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2020] [Revised: 12/05/2020] [Accepted: 12/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Despite modern treatment, risk for cardiovascular disease and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is unacceptably high. Observational studies have shown associations of magnesium with risk for several clinical outcomes in CKD of variable magnitude. The aim of this review is to provide a systematic overview and meta-analysis of longitudinal studies assessing the association of plasma magnesium concentration with clinically relevant outcomes in adult patients with chronic kidney disease, with a minimal follow-up of 6 months. Primary outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, cardiovascular events, sudden death and hospitalisation. METHODS The electronic databases PubMed, Embase and The Cochrane Library were searched using terms relating to plasma magnesium and CKD patients, and two authors independently selected eligible studies. Study quality was assessed according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Results of studies with a comparable magnesium exposure and outcome measure, were pooled using a random-effects meta-regression analysis. RESULTS The search yielded 6156 records of which 33 studies, involving 348,059 patients, met the eligibility criteria. Finally, 22 studies could be included in the meta-analysis. Higher magnesium was associated with a lower risk for all-cause mortality (HR 0.90 [0.87-0.94] per 0.1 mmol/L increase of magnesium) and cardiovascular mortality and events (HR 0.85 [0.77-0.94] per 0.1 mmol/L). CONCLUSIONS Magnesium concentration is inversely associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality and events. Therefore, increasing magnesium may improve risk in patients with chronic kidney disease. This meta-analysis forms a firm base for future prospective trials to test whether increasing plasma magnesium, indeed has beneficial effects on clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Hypomagnesemia is commonly observed in heart failure, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases. Low serum magnesium (Mg) is a predictor for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality and treating Mg deficiency may help prevent cardiovascular disease. In this review, we discuss the possible mechanisms by which Mg deficiency plays detrimental roles in cardiovascular diseases and review the results of clinical trials of Mg supplementation for heart failure, arrhythmias and other cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Background The relationship between magnesium and mortality in hemodialysis patients has been evaluated in several prospective studies, but few have assessed the risk of all-cause mortality in elderly hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between magnesium levels and the risk of cardiovascular and overall mortality in elderly maintenance hemodialysis patients. Methods This was a retrospective study, and patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were screened for eligibility at a single dialysis center between July and December 2016. Patients were divided into two groups based on their magnesium levels: a low magnesium level group and a high magnesium level group. Associations between magnesium level and risk of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality were analyzed with a Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results In total, 413 patients were included with a median follow-up period of 12 months. We found that compared to patients with high magnesium levels, those with low magnesium levels had significantly lower levels of hemoglobin, urea, creatinine, uric acid, phosphate, potassium, chloride, albumin, and spKt/V (p < 0.05 for each parameter). There was a strong correlation between the baseline mean serum magnesium concentration 1 year prior and the concentration 1 year later (r<sup>2</sup> = 0.519, p < 0.001). After adjustment for confounding factors, multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis showed hypomagnesemia to be an independent predictor of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in chronic hemodialysis patients. Furthermore, subgroup analysis was performed, revealing that serum magnesium levels were still strongly associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in patients older than 60 years, with HR values of 0.020 (95% CI 0.001-0.415) and 0.010 (95% CI 0.000-0.491), respectively. In addition, there were still significant associations between the serum magnesium level and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in elderly dialysis patients at the 6-month follow-up visit. Conclusion Our study indicates that lower serum magnesium levels are strongly associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients, especially in the short term and in those who are elderly. Factors affecting serum magnesium concentrations in hemodialysis patients should be investigated, and correcting hypomagnesemia may benefit elderly hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
Introduction Recently, although there are many reports showing that serum magnesium concentration is a predictor of mortality in dialysis patients, the observation periods of those reports were of short duration, typically around 12 months. Thus, we investigated this relationship over a longer follow-up period. Methods This retrospective, observational study included a total of 83 non-diabetic hemodialysis patients. The follow-up period was 120 months. Patients were divided into two groups, those with serum magnesium ≥2.5 mg/dL (Mg ≥2.5 mg/dL group) and serum magnesium <2.5 mg/dL (Mg <2.5 mg/dL group), and Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards analysis were conducted. In addition to the above analysis, single and multiple regression analysis were performed at baseline to reveal the relationship between serum magnesium and clinical parameters. Findings During the follow-up period, 31 out of 83 patients died. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a significantly higher incidence of death in the Mg <2.5 mg/dL group (log-rank test 4.951, P = 0.026). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis showed a 62% decreased risk of mortality in the Mg ≥2.5 mg/dL group compared to the Mg <2.5 mg/dL group after adjustment for several confounding factors. Simple correlation coefficient analysis showed positive correlations of serum magnesium levels with serum creatinine, phosphorus, high-density lipoprotein, ankle-brachial index and KT/V, and a negative correlation with age. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the ankle-brachial index was the only parameter that had a positive and significant correlation with the serum magnesium level. Conclusion Our study demonstrated that higher serum magnesium levels were associated with improved survival in non-diabetic hemodialysis patients.

[PMID: 30813254 PMCID: PMC6412491 DOI: 10.3390/nu11020455] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2019] [Revised: 02/17/2019] [Accepted: 02/19/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Magnesium is essential for many physiological functions in the human body. Its homeostasis involves dietary intake, absorption, uptake and release from bone, swifts between the intra- and extracellular compartment, and renal excretion. Renal excretion is mainly responsible for regulation of magnesium balance. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), for a long time the general policy has been limiting magnesium intake. However, this may not be appropriate for many patients. The reference ranges for magnesium are not necessarily optimal concentrations, and risks for insufficient magnesium intake exist in patients with CKD. In recent years, many observational studies have shown that higher (in the high range of “normal” or slightly above) magnesium concentrations are associated with better survival in CKD cohorts. This review gives an overview of epidemiological associations between magnesium and overall and cardiovascular survival in patients with CKD. In addition, potential mechanisms explaining the protective role of magnesium in clinical cardiovascular outcomes are described by reviewing evidence from in vitro studies, animal studies, and human intervention studies with non-clinical endpoints. This includes the role of magnesium in cardiac arrhythmia, heart failure, arterial calcification, and endothelial dysfunction. Possible future implications will be addressed, which will need prospective clinical trials with relevant clinical endpoints before these can be adopted in clinical practice.

Lower Plasma Magnesium, Measured by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, is Associated with Increased Risk of Developing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Women: Results from a Dutch Prospective Cohort Study. J Clin Med 2019; 8:jcm8020169. [PMID: 30717286 PMCID: PMC6406570 DOI: 10.3390/jcm8020169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2019] [Revised: 01/27/2019] [Accepted: 01/29/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Low circulating magnesium (Mg) is associated with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We aimed to study the performance of a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based assay that quantifies ionized Mg in EDTA plasma samples and prospectively investigate the association of Mg with the risk of T2DM. Methods: The analytic performance of an NMR-based assay for measuring plasma Mg was evaluated. We studied 5747 subjects free of T2DM at baseline in the Prevention of Renal and Vascular End-stage Disease (PREVEND) study. Results: Passing–Bablok regression analysis, comparing NMR-measured ionized Mg with total Mg measured by the Roche colorimetric assay, produced a correlation of r = 0.90, with a slope of 1.08 (95% CI: 1.00–1.13) and an intercept of 0.02 (95% CI: −0.02–0.08). During a median follow-up period of 11.2 (IQR: 7.7–12.0) years, 289 (5.0%) participants developed T2DM. The association of NMR-measured ionized Mg with T2DM risk was modified by sex (Pinteraction = 0.007). In women, we found an inverse association between Mg and the risk of developing T2DM, independent of adjustment for potential confounders (HR: 1.80; 95% CI: 1.20–2.70). In men, we found no association between Mg and the risk of developing T2DM (HR: 0.90; 95%: 0.67–1.21). Conclusion: Lower NMR-measured plasma ionized Mg was independently associated with a higher risk of developing T2DM in women, but not in men.
