Serum samples were collected from 57 women with preeclamptic pregnancies and 30 women with normal pregnancies during the third trimester. ADMA levels were measured with the ELISA method. ADMA levels in preeclamptic pregnancies were significantly higher when compared with normal pregnancies (2.35 ± 3.20 nmol/l versus 0.35 ± 0.10 nmol/l; p < .05). ADMA levels show a significant positive correlation with systolic and diastolic pressure, urea, and creatinine but a negative correlation with proteinuria. ADMA levels have a significant strong correlation with PE. ADMA levels are significantly higher in preeclamptic pregnancy compared with normal pregnancy. ## Keywords - Asymmetric dimethylarginine - Preeclampsia - Medicine - Creatinine - Internal medicine - Proteinuria - Endocrinology - Pregnancy - Obstetrics - Arginine - Chemistry - Kidney - Biology - Biochemistry - Genetics - Amino acid --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
