Serum magnesium levels and the risk of acute kidney injury in ICU patients with acute pancreatitis: A MIMIC-IV cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This cohort study investigated the relationship between serum magnesium levels and the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP).

Methods

We analyzed data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database, focusing on adult AP patients (≥18 years old) with ICU stays longer than 24 h. Univariable logistic regression was used to identify key covariates. Both univariate and multivariable logistic regression models were used to evaluate the link between serum magnesium levels and AKI occurrence. A restricted cubic spline (RCS) was used to visualize the associations, and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.

Results

During hospitalization, 455 (69.1%) participants exp
