Symmetric dimethylarginine is a stronger predictor of mortality risk than asymmetric dimethylarginine among older people with kidney disease

Abstract: Background Circulating asymmetric dimethylarginine and symmetric dimethylarginine are increased in patients with kidney disease. Symmetric dimethylarginine is considered a good marker of glomerular filtration rate, while asymmetric dimethylarginine is a marker of cardiovascular risk. However, a link between symmetric dimethylarginine and all-cause mortality has been reported. In the present study, we evaluated both dimethylarginines as risk and glomerular filtration rate markers in a cohort of elderly white in… Show more

“…43 A study by Patel et al (2019) also showed that SDMA is a stronger predictor for mortality risk in patients with CKD than ADMA. 53 SDMA can stimulate ROS production, which induces proinflammatory effects in patients with CKD. 54 In another study, it was found that in acute inflammation, ADMA but not SDMA is decreased.…”
