Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between aging, dialysis duration, and the control of calcium, phosphorus, and iPTH levels in hemodialysis patients, highlighting that aging is a significant issue in this group.
- Conducted on 3,025 hemodialysis patients in China, the research found that those with poor control of calcium and phosphorus levels, especially those undergoing dialysis for longer periods, showed a disparity between chronological age and biological age.
- The results suggest that improper metabolic control can accelerate aging in hemodialysis patients, indicating the need for further research on the importance of regulating these minerals to potentially slow down the aging process.

Article Synopsis
- Serum magnesium (Mg) levels are linked to various health issues like insulin resistance and inflammation, and this study aims to explore how Mg relates to allostatic load (AL) in hemodialysis patients.
- Conducted in Anhui Province, China, the research involved 3,025 hemodialysis patients, ultimately including 1,222 in the analysis, revealing that 23.4% had high AL levels.
- Findings indicate that lower serum Mg is associated with higher odds of high AL, suggesting that maintaining higher Mg levels could lower health risks for these patients, warranting further research.
