Hypomagnesemia is a Risk Factor for Acute Kidney Injury in Patients Admitted With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: A Retrospective Observational Study

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is prevalent in patients hospitalized with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and is correlated with worse cardiovascular outcomes. Hypomagnesemia has been found to be associated with an elevated risk of AKI in various patient populations. Nonetheless, the relationship between hypomagnesemia and AKI incidence in patients with STEMI has not been fully elucidated. The study aims to investigate the association between admission serum magnesium levels and the development of AKI in patients with STEMI.
