Association of paraoxonase 1 and oxidative stress with acute kidney injury in premature asphyxiated neonates
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2017)
Objectives: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is defined as a decrease in glomerular filtration rate with an increase in serum creatinine (sCr). Perinatal asphyxia (PNA) may be etiological factor for AKI with oxidative stress also ...
Insight into the oxidative stress induced by lead and/or cadmium in blood, liver and kidneys
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2015)
Besides being important occupational hazards, lead and cadmium are nowadays metals of great environmental concern. Both metals, without any physiological functions, can induce serious adverse health effects in various ...
The usefulness of advanced lipid and oxidative stress testing for diagnosis and management of low HDL-cholesterol phenotype: A case report
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Objective: Plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level is a strong inverse predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) development. Tangier disease, a consequence of mutations in the ATP binding cassette ...
Polychlorinated biphenyls as oxidative stress inducers in liver of subacutely exposed rats: Implication for dose-dependence toxicity and benchmark dose concept
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2015)
Hepatotoxicity is one of the well-documented adverse health effects of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs)persistent organic pollutants widely present in the environment. Although previous studies suggest possible role of ...
Older age and HDL-cholesterol as independent predictors of liver fibrosis assessed by BARD score
(Edizioni Minerva Medica, Turin, 2019)
BACKGROUND: It is known that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and in particular non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, can progress to advanced fibrosis. However, pathophysiological mechanisms implicated in this evolution ...
Long-term effects of chromium on morphological and immunological parameters of Wistar rats
(Elsevier, 2019)
Abstract
Hexavalent chromium raises high concern because of its wide industrial applications and reported toxicity. Long-term (135 days) oral exposure of Wistar rats to chromium in the form of K2Cr2O7 (exposed group~20 mg/kg/day) ...

Effect of astaxanthin supplementation on muscle damage and oxidative stress markers in elite young soccer players
(Edizioni Minerva Medica, Turin, 2012)
Aim. The purpose of the current study was to examine the effect of Astaxanthin (Asx) supplementation on muscle enzymes as indirect markers of muscle damage, oxidative stress markers and antioxidant response in elite young ...
The Association of Serum Iron-Binding Proteins and the Antioxidant Parameter Levels in Age-Related Macular Degeneration
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2018)
Purpose: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of the irreversible central visual loss among the elderly in the developed countries. Iron is considered a potent generator of the oxidative damage whose ...
Hyperlipidemia, oxidative stress, and intima media thickness in children with chronic kidney disease
(Springer, New York, 2013)
The roles of dyslipidemia and oxidative stress in the early phases of atherosclerosis were tested in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Intima media thickness of common carotid arteries (cIMT) is used as a measure ...
