Our aim was to determine the relationship between renal reabsorption-related magnesium depletion score (MDS) and sleep quality. Adults aged ≥20 years participated in the NHANES survey to generate our data. We used weighted logistic regression to examine the association between MDS and sleep quality and performed trend tests to analyze for the presence of a dose-response relationship. A total of 20,585 participants were included, with a mean age of 48.8 years and 50.7 % female. After adjusting for all covariates, we found a graded dose-response relationship between MDS and sleep trouble as well as sleep disorder. Further analyses revealed a significant positive association between MDS and sleep apnea (OR = 3.01; 95 % CI 1.37-6.62), but no association with restless legs, insomnia or insufficient sleep. In addition, middle-aged, male, obese, low magnesium intake, and depressed patients were more prone to sleep trouble and sleep disorder; interestingly, MDS was positively associated with excessive sleep in subjects ≥60 years and without depression. We found a significant association between MDS and sleep quality, particularly sleep apnea, but adequate magnesium intake may be beneficial in mitigating this association. MDS may be associated with excessive sleep in older adults, but not with insufficient sleep or insomnia.
Selene is wоrking оn а clinicаl triаl using a crоss-over design. Half of the participants are consuming high amounts of cruciferous vegetables for the first 4 weeks of the study, while the other half eat their regular diet. The participants will 'switch' group assignments for the second 4 weeks of the study, but there is a one week _______ in between these two 4-week sessions in which the participants must all completely avoid cruciferous vegetables so that what happened during the first 4 weeks doesn't influence the second 4 weeks.
