Why the study?
Do elevated baseline plasma ADMA concentrations predict 30-day adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery?
Do elevated baseline plasma ADMA concentrations predict 30-day adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery?
Elevated baseline plasma ADMA concentrations independently predict a higher risk of 30-day peri- and postoperative adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery.
May refine perioperative CV risk stratification in noncardiac surgery; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
