enhanced oxidative stress in diabetes mellitus may contribute to the pathogenesis of diaetic complications. in this article, the stress oxidative generation has been studied in experimental diabetes by ferric reducing ability of plasma assay, a sensitive and simple method, and by other oxidative damage markers. the ferric reducing ability of plasma values as a total antioxidant capacity were si...

Background: The most important cause of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with inflammation and oxidative stress. Probiotics are microorganisms that are believed to be beneficial to human and animals. Probiotics reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in some cases. Therefore, this study determined the effects of probiotics mixture on the biomarkers of oxidative stres...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD), especially heart failure (HF) as its common final pathway, is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Furthermore, oxidative and inflammatory processes represent fundamental underlying mechanisms for the development and progression of HF. Of interest, in recent years the development of markers with diagnostic and prognostic value for this pathology ...

background: the aim of this study was to investigate the role of oxidative stress in the pathology of ovine dicrocoeliasis. methods : during dec 2013 - oct 2014, seventy-two sheep (1-3 years) with liver dicrocoeliasis along with 47 healthy sheep were selected from animals admitted for slaughtering at slaughterhouse located in neyshabour, razavi khorasan province, iran. results : in comparison t...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between oxidative stress markers and cognitive functions and domains of psychosocial functioning in bipolar disorder. METHODS Oxidative stress markers, cognitive functions, and domains of psychosocial functioning were evaluated in 51 patients with bipolar disorder who were in remission. Correlation analyses between these parameters were ...

Although oxidative stress is thought to play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory airway diseases, its assessment in clinical practice remains elusive. In recent years, it has been conceptualized that oxidative stress markers in sputum should be employed to monitor oxidative processes in patients with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or cystic fibrosis (CF). I...

background: it has been reported that ischemia-reperfusion is associated with augmentation of oxidative stress and its specific and sensitive markers. oxidative stress may cause atrial fibrillation (af) which is a common consequence after cardiac surgery. dietary supplementation with antioxidants might lower the incidence of af following coronary artery bypass graft (cabg) surgery. materials an...
