Elevated Asymmetric Dimethylarginine in Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Preliminary Report

Background: Adult survivors of childhood malignancy are predisposed to late cardiovascular (CV) complications. Our aim was to estimate plasma levels of the endogenous nitric oxide formation inhibitor asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), in long-term survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia...
