Özet

Background Given that the endogenous nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, asymmetric dimethylarginine, can decrease nitric oxide bioavailability and lead to atherosclerosis, its concentration can be a good predictor for coronary artery disease. In this study, we investigated the relationship of plasma asymmetric dimethylarginine concentration with lesion distribution and severity at coronary artery angiography.
