Metformin is used to reduce hyperglycemia that induces energetic stress and leads to reduction in gluconeogenesis. Also, metformin inhibits complex I in oxidative phosphorylation, thereby decreasing cellular ATP levels. ...

Aim. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) levels in patients presenting to the emergency department with acute abdominal pain and its use in differentiating ...

Background: To examine the effects of honey on oxidative stress and apoptosis in experimental obstructivejaundice model.Method: Thirty rats were divided into 3 groups: group I, sham-operated; group II, ligation and divisionof ...

Objective: To determine the effects of subclinical hypothyroidism on oxidative stress in children. Study Design: A cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Paediatrics, Paediatric Endocrinology, ...

Objective: Cardiovascular diseases are the most common and important comorbidities in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Literature indicates that there may be a relationship between diagonal earlobe ...

Introduction: The role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of hyperemesis gravidarum (HEG) has been demonstrated in a lot of studies. The present study aimed to compare the ischaemia-modified albumin (IMA) serum levels ...

Objective: To evaluate the value of maternal serum advanced glycation end products (AGEs) level at 11–13 weeks’ gestation for the prediction of preterm labor and or preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). Materials ...

Objective: To investigate the effects of CRT (cathode ray tube)-monitor-emitted radiation on the oxidant/antioxidant status in kidney, liver, heart, brain tissues of rats and to observe the histo pathological findings of ...

Ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI) is a dual process with local damage due to hypoxia during ischemia and additional local and systemic injury due to inflammation and oxidative damage during reperfusion. Vascular endothelial ...

Background: Propolis is a natural product collected by honey bees from various plant sources. We aimed to determine the possible effects of propolis on oxidative stress and hepatocyte apoptosis in experimental obstructive ...
