Dietary magnesium intake and rheumatoid arthritis patients' all-cause mortality: evidence from the NHANES database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disease with all-cause mortality increasing globally. Dietary magnesium (Mg), an anti-inflammatory nutrient, has been proven to be associated with the all-cause mortality. The association of dietary Mg intake and all-cause mortality in RA patients remains unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the association between dietary Mg intake and all-cause mortality in RA patients.

Methods

RA patients were extracted from the NHANES 1999-2018, and followed for survival through December 31, 2019. Dietary Mg intake data were obtained from 24-h dietary recall interview. The association between dietary Mg intake and RA patients' all-cause mortality was explored based on weighted univariate and multivariate Cox pro
