AI Article Synopsis
- Magnesium is the second most common cation inside cells and is necessary for around 300 vital enzymatic reactions.
- It plays a key role in producing and using ATP, which is essential for energy processes in the body.
- Deficiency in magnesium can arise from various health issues or medical treatments and can worsen problems like hypertension, heart arrhythmias, and immune function.
Article Abstract
Magnesium is the second most abundant intracellular cation in the human body and serves as an obligate cofactor in approximately 300 essential enzymatic cellular reactions. Magnesium is crucial for the generation and use of adenosine triphosphate and is required for oxidative phosphorylation. A wide variety of internal and external stresses have been found to increase a person's requirement for dietary magnesium. Magnesium deficiency may develop during a variety of pathological states, or it may have an iatrogenic basis. Magnesium deficiency complicates the management of hypertension and cardiac arrhythmias, affects the clinical behavior of neuromuscular blocking drugs, and may impair immune function.

Division of Epidemiology, Vanderbilt Epidemiology Center, Department of Medicine, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, TN 37203, USA.
Unlabelled: Metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has been associated with increased risks of all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. Identification of modifiable risk factors that may contribute to higher risks of mortality could facilitate targeted and intensive intervention strategies in this population. This study aims to examine whether the magnesium depletion score (MDS) is associated with all-cause and CVD mortality among individuals with MASLD or metabolic and alcohol associated liver disease (MetALD).

However, a reliable biomarker of mild Mg deficiency due to low Mg intake has not yet been identified. We speculate that metabolomics will be effective for biomarker discovery because Mg can affect various metabolic processes in the body.

Objectives: The annual growth in the population of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients is accompanied by a trend towards younger age groups among new cases. Despite the escalating mortality risk observed in MHD patients, there remains a dearth of research focused on young and middle-aged individuals in this cohort, leading to a deficiency in specialized predictive instruments for this demographic. This research seeks to explore the critical determinants impacting mortality risk in young and middle-aged MHD patients and to construct a prediction model accordingly.
