High-Normal Serum Magnesium and Hypermagnesemia Are Associated With Increased 30-Day In-Hospital Mortality: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Background: Magnesium, the fourth most abundant mineral nutrient in our body, plays a critical role in regulating ion channels and energy generation, intracardiac conduction, and myocardial contraction. In this study, we assessed the association of admission serum magnesium level with all-cause in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods: Clinical data were extracted from the eICU Collaborative Research Database (eICU-CRD). Only the data for the first intensive care unit (ICU) admission of each patient were used, and baseline data were extracted within 24 h after ICU admission. Logistic regression, Cox regression, and subgroup analyses were conducted to determine the relationship between admission serum magnesium level and
