Shimohata H, et al. - Researchers examined the link between serum magnesium levels and mortality in 83 non-diabetic hemodialysis patients over a longer follow-up period (120 months) in this retrospective, observational study. Two groups of patients were defined: having serum magnesium ≥2.5 mg/dL (Mg ≥2.5 mg/dL group) and serum magnesium <2.5 mg/dL (Mg <2.5 mg/dL group). Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards analysis were carried out. They also undertook single and multiple regression analysis at baseline to find out the link between serum magnesium and clinical parameters. Findings revealed a link between higher serum magnesium levels and improved survival in non-diabetic hemodialysis patients.
