Association between magnesium depletion score and prostate cancer.

ABSTRACT: The Magnesium Depletion Score (MDS) is a practical tool used to assess magnesium deficiency. Studies have indicated that MDS is associated with various urological conditions, such as kidney stones and the prognosis of chronic kidney disease. However, the relationship between MDS and prostate cancer (PCa) remains unclear. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the association between MDS and PCa. This study conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 16,043 participants from the 2005-2018 NHANES database. Subgroup analysis, restricted cubic splines (RCS), and multivariable logistic regression were employed to examine the association between MDS and the prevalence of PCa. A total of 16,043 participants were included in this study, of whom 511 had PCa. After adjusting for all variables using m
