Summary: Magnesium (Mg2+) deficiency is often underestimated in Western countries, especially in obese individuals with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Proper intake of Mg2+ can help improve metabolic syndrome by regulating gene expression, proteomic profile, and impacting intestinal microbiota and vitamin metabolism.

Summary: Magnesium is an essential nutrient for maintaining vital physiological functions, and its deficiency may lead to metabolic disorders associated with obesity. High magnesium intake through diet and/or supplementation can prevent chronic metabolic complications by limiting adipose tissue accumulation and improving glucose and insulin metabolism. However, more randomized controlled trials are needed to evaluate magnesium supplementation strategies.

Summary: This study examined the association and dose-response relationship between dietary magnesium intake and Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and its components. Results showed a significant association between dietary magnesium intake and MetS and its components, with a significant decrease in risk when magnesium intake was below 280 mg/day.

Summary: This study found that pre-diagnostic consumption of calcium and magnesium was unrelated to ovarian cancer survival, while a higher calcium-to-magnesium intake ratio was strongly associated with worse survival among ovarian cancer patients.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the relationship between metabolic control, vitamin D status, and the AA/EPA ratio in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The study found that the AA/EPA ratio has an impact on insulin demand and vitamin D levels in T1D children. Additionally, the composition of the diet may affect the severity of T1D onset.

Summary: This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the association between dietary calcium intake and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The results showed an inverse relationship between dietary calcium intake and T2DM risk in a dose-response manner, with a significant reduction in risk observed when calcium intake increased to around 750 mg/day. However, the inverse association between calcium intake and T2DM/hyperglycemia was only found in females in cross-sectional studies.

Summary: The Ca/Mg ratio is a valuable predictor for screening CAD, especially in diabetes. The cutoff value of Ca/Mg ratio in the diabetic population is 2.55, with CAD prevalence below the cutoff at 18.5% and above the cutoff at 46.9%.

Summary: Irrigation water quality is crucial for plant growth, crop production, and public health. This study evaluates the suitability of irrigation water in the Koga region of Ethiopia for crops intended for human consumption. The results indicate that the water samples do not meet the safe limits set by FAO, WHO, EU, and other nations, suggesting that consuming crops and vegetables without proper preparation is not recommended.

Summary: This study evaluated the relationship between polyphenol and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) consumption and metabolic and inflammatory markers in patients with type 2 diabetes. The results showed that high intake of flavonoids, omega-3 PUFAs, and stilbenes had a positive effect on fasting glucose and glycated hemoglobin, but did not affect other cardiometabolic markers.

Summary: Magnesium intake is insufficient in adolescents, with males and black individuals consuming less than females and white individuals. Lower magnesium intake is associated with higher CRP levels and lower muscle mass.

Summary: The risk of inadequate calcium intake is a global issue. Our simulation exercise showed that increasing calcium levels in drinking water can improve calcium intake, especially in adults. However, the impact is lower for adolescents and older adults.

Summary: This study re-evaluated the prevailing hypothesis that metabolic syndrome components are central to all cases of T2DM. Results showed that a significant proportion of T2DM cases did not display any components of metabolic syndrome, indicating the existence of a second, unrelated pathophysiology.

Summary: This study found that a higher intake of dietary minerals, including calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, iron, manganese, and zinc, was associated with a lower odds of preeclampsia in Chinese pregnant women. In addition, a reverse J-shaped relationship between dietary minerals intake and preeclampsia risk was observed.

Summary: The study suggests that higher total magnesium intake may reduce the risk of significant fibrosis, especially among those with lower daily calcium intake. There were no clear associations between calcium intake and significant fibrosis. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.
