Özet

Background: Magnesium (Mg) is key in diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and cardiovascular disease. Methods: This is a retrospective cross-sectional study including 103 kidney transplant recipients. Patients aged under 18 years, patients treated with Mg supplementation, antihyperlipidemic agents, or diuretics, and patients with active infection or malignancy were not enrolled. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to median serum Mg level. The atherogenic index of plasma was calculated by a logarithmic transformation of the number acquired by dividing the molar concentrations of serum triglyceride by high-density lipoprotein value. Results: The mean serum Mg level was 1.91 ± 0.28 mg/dL. Six patients (5.8%) had hypomagnesemia (Mg <1.5 mg/dL), and 2 (1.9%) had hypermagnesemia (Mg >2.6 mg/dL). Serum Mg level was negatively correlated with body mass index, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and tacrolimus trough level and positively correlated with levels of phosphorus, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C). There was no correlation between serum Mg and triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, atherogenic index of plasma, and cyclosporin A trough level. Patients with Mg >1.87 mg/dL had lower eGFR, tacrolimus, and cyclosporin A trough level and higher total cholesterol and LDL-C compared to those with Mg ?1.87 mg/dL. In adjusted ordinal analysis, eGFR (hazard ratio (HR): 0.981, 95% CI 0.964-0.999, P = .036) and total cholesterol (HR: 1.015, 95% CI 1.004-1.027, P = .008) were independently associated with serum Mg. In multivariate linear regression analysis, serum Mg level was independently associated with LDL-C (? = .296, t = 3.079, P = .003) and total cholesterol (? = .295, t = 3.075, P = .003). Conclusion: Serum Mg level may have an important impact on dyslipidemia in kidney transplant recipients. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
