“In addition, there was a significant correlation between TAS and age at onset (Pearson correlation coefficient [R] 0.17, p<0.0001), cup/disc ratio ( R : -0.13, p=0.004), and number of anti-glaucoma medications (R: -0.16, p=0.001).”
“The supplementation of L-arginine led to substantial increase in NO concentration and TAS level in these patients, suggesting its indirect antioxidative effect.”

“ L-arginine plus antioxidant vitamins compared with antioxidant vitamins alone resulted in a significant effect (P=0.004; absolute risk reduction 0.09, 0.05 to 0.14).”
“Supplementation with L-arginine plus antioxidant vitamins needs to be evaluated in a low risk population to determine the generalisability of the protective effect, and the relative contributions of L-arginine and antioxidant vitamins to the observed effects of the combined treatment need to be determined.”
“The incidence of pre-eclampsia was reduced significantly (χ2=19.41; P<0.001) in women randomised to L-arginine plus antioxidant vitamins compared with placebo (absolute risk reduction 0.17 (95% confidence interval 0.12 to 0.21).”
“Co-infusion of the antioxidant vitamin C on top of L-arginine induced a more pronounced increase in RPF in patients with chronic glomerular disease than in control subjects (21.7+/-17 vs 10.9+/-22%; P=0.036).”
“This study indicates that the addition of Arg to the diet at 2.7-3.7% can improve the growth, survival, antioxidant capacity , immunity and disease resistance in juvenile Chinese mitten crab.”
“The mRNA expressions of several anti-oxidant enzymes including SOD, CAT and GSHPx were also significantly increased after L-Arg supplementation, which accelerated the clearance of reactive oxygen species.”
