Lower serum magnesium is associated with vascular calcification in peritoneal dialysis patients: a cross sectional study. BMC Nephrology 2017 "...Conclusions In conclusion, our results support the assertion that Mg may inhibit vascular calcification, a condition that is highly prevalent in the dialysis population and is associated with increased mortality [2, 3, 4]. If our results can be duplicated in large observational studies with repeated serum Mg and vascular calcification measurements, interventions, such as Mg supplementation in hypomagnesemic patients, the use of Mg based phosphate binders, or the use of PD solutions with a higher Mg concentration and their effect on vascular calcification warrant testing in the PD population. Such interventions would be easy to administer and would carry minimal side effects..." full paper: https://bmcnephrol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12882-017-0549-yCoronary artery calcification (CAC) is highly prevalent among dialysis patients and is associated with increased cardiovascular and all cause mortality. Magnesium (Mg) inhibits vascular calcification in animal and in-vitro studies but whether the same effect occurs in humans is uncertain. A single c...
