Background: Magnesium, ranks on number four for its abundancy in the body. It is known as “the forgotten electrolyte” in the literature. It is second most abundant intracellular cation. Altered magnesium level is frequently encountered electrolyte imbalance in critically ill patients. It increases ICU related morbidity and mortality. Identification and prompt management of magnesium disorder helps in reducing ICU related mortality. Material and methods: we performed a prospective interventional study in which we collected data from intensive care unit of liaquat national hospital. We included only those patients who were having critical illness. We then measured serum magnesium level in all patients and reported the findings. Results: A total of 107 patients from the Medical ICU were included in this study .56 were females (52%) and 51(47.7%) were males. The mean age was 59.6 years. We found that 63.3 % of patients had deranged levels of magnesium. 47.7 % of patients had hypermagnesemia whereas 15.9% of patients had hypomagnesemia. Conclusion: Dysmagenesemia is significantly common in critically ill patient.

“…In contrast, the incidence of hypermagnesemia was similar to previous studies [ 8 ], i.e., more uncommon than hypomagnesemia. Hypermagnesemia is described to be extremely rare in patients without renal disease [ 18 , 19 ]. Moreover, hypermagnesemia is commonly caused by administering Mg-containing medication orally or intravenously [ 3 ].…”

Background. Magnesium (Mg) disorders are common among hospitalized patients and are linked to poor health outcomes. We aimed to determine the incidence of dysmagnesemia among medically hospitalized patients and to identify factors that are associated with dysmagnesemia. Methods. A prospective cohort study was conducted at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital (SQUH) from April 1st, 2022, to October 31st, 2022, and involved hospitalized adult patients (≥18 years) under the care of the general internal medicine unit. The patients’ serum total magnesium (Mg) concentrations were categorized as hypomagnesemia (≤0.69 mmol/L), hypermagnesemia (≥1.01 mmol/L), or dysmagnesemia, which encompassed either hypomagnesemia or hypermagnesemia. Results. Of the 304 patients evaluated, dysmagnesemia was observed in 22.0%, which comprised of 17.4% with hypomagnesemia and 4.6% with hypermagnesemia. Statistically significant associations were identified between hypermagnesemia and chronic kidney disease (CKD) ( p = 0.05) and elevated creatinine levels ( p < 0.01) and lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ( p < 0.01). Hypomagnesemia was linked to lower ionized calcium ( p = 0.03) and admission due to infectious diseases ( p = 0.02). However, ordered regression analysis did not find any significant associations with the different magnesium groups. Conclusion. Dysmagnesemia was prevalent among hospitalized patients and was associated with different factors; however, ordered regression analysis did not find any association with the different magnesium group, probably due to the limited number of included individuals.

Purpose The relationship between dysmagnesemia and all-cause mortality probability in individuals with acute kidney injury (AKI) have not been investigated. In this study, we evaluated the correlation of varying magnesium levels with mortality in older adults undergoing AKI. Patients and methods Older adults receiving treatment at the Chinese PLA General Hospital between 2007 and 2018 were retrospectively recruited. All-cause mortality was evaluated at four preset magnesium concentrations: <0.8, 0.8–0.9, 0.9–1.0, and ≥ 1.0 mmol/L. Using multivariable-adjusted Cox assessment, the all-cause mortality risk was approximated by setting the reference magnesium concentration at 0.8–0.9 mmol/L. Results Totally 744 participants were enrolled, whose median age was 88 years, with most of them being male (94.2%). Among them, 184 patients were assigned into the < 0.8 mmol/L group, 156 into the 0.8–0.9 mmol/L group, 206 into the 0.9–1.0 mmol/L group, and 198 into the ≥ 1.0 mmol/L group. After 28 days, the mortality rates in the four strata were 26.6, 17.9, 17.5, and 37.4%, respectively. The corresponding mortalities after 90 days were 42.4, 23.7, 26.7, and 45.5%, respectively. Compared with patients who had magnesium levels of 0.8–0.9 mmol/L, those with magnesium levels < 0.8 mmol/L (P = 0.048), and ≥ 1.0 mmol/L (P < 0.001) exhibited higher 28-day mortalities. Significant correlations also showed that patients with magnesium levels < 0.8 mmol/L (P = 0.017) and ≥ 1.0 mmol/L (P < 0.001) were significantly related to the increased 90-day mortality. Conclusion Magnesium levels outside the interval of 0.8–1.0 mmol/L were related to the higher risks of 28- and 90-day mortalities among older adults with AKI.
