Lower albumin levels (<4.3 g/dL) were similarly associated with a higher risk of MEB (OR: 0.22, 95% CI: 0.10–0.48, p < 0.001), as were lower Ca (OR: 0.44, 95% CI: 0.20–0.94, p = 0.034) and lower Mg levels (OR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.08–1.11, p = 0.070), although the latter relationship was only borderline significant. This evidence concerns the gene ALB and muscle-eye-brain disease.
