“…On the other hand, the level of sodium was not varied significantly between the two groups regarding the level of serum magnesium, and although the mean level of hemoglobin was lower among AMI patients with low serum magnesium levels, there was no significant difference. Therefore, we did not find any association between the level of serum magnesium and hemoglobin and sodium level, and this was in contrast to the previous study [ 9 ].…”

“…A study conducted on 465 consecutive AMI patients complicated with malignant ventricular arrhythmia categorized patients into two groups based on the serum magnesium level. More patients who reported a serum magnesium level of ≤2.3 mg/dL significantly experienced dyslipidemia, higher level of hemoglobin, and lower serum sodium and tended to administrate beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), calcium channel blockers, and statin after admission [ 9 ]. These findings showed agreement and contrast with our findings; in agreement with our findings, we found that a higher proportion of AMI patients were suffering from dyslipidemia; however, the significance level was not definite (P=0.05).…”

“…Notably, we observed increased rates of myocardial LGE—potential markers of minor myocardial infarction—in participants with high serum magnesium levels. It has been shown that in patients with acute coronary syndrome, there is a higher magnesium leakage from the infarcted myocardium leading to increased magnesium levels, with subsequent development of malignant ventricular arrhythmia and increased in-hospital deaths [ 47 , 48 ]. However, this cannot explain our findings since participants were not in an acute condition.…”

“… 1 , 2 Malignant VA is one of the most common cause of death in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). 3 , 4 Early revascularization can significantly improve the prognosis of AMI patients. 5 , 6 However, VA may still occur due to reperfusion myocardial injury or no-reflow.…”

“… 7–9 Thus, early assessment of VA risk in AMI patients can help clinicians to take active prevention and treatment measures, thus reducing the risk of in-hospital death and improving the prognosis. 4 , 10–12 In this study, we aimed to explore independent predictors of VA in AMI patients during hospitalization, and use them to develop a clinical prediction model.…”
