Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Levels and Its Correlation to Cerebral Blood Flow in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia.


ABSTRACT: Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) level may play a role in the pathogenesis of cerebrovascular stroke in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA). To assess the plasma level of ADMA in children with SCA and its correlation to cerebral blood flow. This is a cross sectional study was carried out on 30 children with homozygous SCA under follow up in the Out Patients Clinic, Pediatric Department at Tanta University Hospital and 30 healthy children as a control group. Both groups had undergone the following investigations: Complete blood count, lactate dehydrogenase enzyme, and plasma level of ADMA by a commercial ADMA ELISA Kit. Trans-cranial Doppler were done for both groups. ADMA plasma level was significantly higher in-patient group in comparison to the control group (p?
