CI, confidence interval; MDS, magnesium depletion score; OR, odds ratio; P-value, probability value.

The relationship between MDS and depression was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis.

Model 1: Covariates were not adjusted. Model 2: Adjusted for gender, age, and race as covariates. Model 3: Further adjusted for marital status, education level, household monthly income, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, and average magnesium intake based on Model 2.
