Abstract
The lower ADMA levels observed in patients with BD might be related to the degradation of ADMA by dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase in response to ischemia and could act as a defensive mechanism during the acute or quiescent phases. In patients with BD experiencing severe clinical conditions or with a longer time course for the disease, higher ADMA levels may suggest a poor prognosis.
