Association of magnesium deficiency scores with risk of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis in adults: a cross-sectional population-based study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe magnesium depletion score (MDS) is a scoring system developed to predict magnesium deficiency based on pathophysiological factors that affect renal reabsorption. The relationship between systemic magnesium status and arthritis is unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine the association between the MDS and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) as well as osteoarthritis (OA).
methodsThis study was conducted through a cross-sectional survey of 20,513 adults aged ≥ 20 years who participated in NHANES from 2007 to 2018. The four dimensions of the MDS included diuretics, proton pump inhibitors, glomerular filtration rate, and excessive alcohol consumption. Univariate and multivariable-weighted logistic regression were used to assess the associations between MDS and RA/OA, and a test for trend was performed to analyze the presence of a dose-response relationship. Subgroup analyses and interaction tests were performed according to confounders.
resultsAfter adjustment for all covariates, we found a graded dose-response relationship between MDS and RA or OA. When MDS was considered as a continuous variable, each onefold increase in MDS was associated with a 1.21-fold increase in the odds of having RA (OR = 1.21, 1.10, 1.33) and a 1.12-fold increase in the odds of having OA (OR = 1.12, 1.04, 1.21). There was an interaction of sex in the effect of MDS on RA (P
conclusionsOur study identified significant dose-response associations between MDS and both RA and OA. More biological mechanisms are needed in the future to validate and clarify the results of this study.
