Association between low magnesium status and new-onset dementia in the general population: a propensity score-matched cohort study

Background Low magnesium status has been linked to cerebrovascular conditions that overlap with pathways implicated in dementia, yet prior studies have relied on single magnesium measurements obtained in earlier population-based cohorts. Whether repeatedly documented low magnesium status is associated with incident dementia in real-world clinical populations is unclear. Methods This retrospective propensity score-matched cohort study used data from the TriNetX Global Collaborative Network (2016–
