The study found that both low and high magnesium concentrations were independently associated with an increased risk of the primary outcome, a composite of cardiovascular death or heart failure events. This suggests that maintaining optimal serum magnesium levels may be important in managing patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction.</p> <h3> Transcript</h3> <div style=”background-color: #f8f9fa; padding: 20px; border-radius: 5px; line-height: 1.6;”> <p><em>Today’s date is September 01, 2025.
