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) ...
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 ...
Relationship between bone resorption, oxidative stress and inflammation in severe COPD exacerbation
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Background: The natural course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is complicated by the development of systemic consequences and co-morbidities. Increasing evidence indicates that COPD and osteoporosis are ...

Pulmonary function, oxidative stress and inflammatory markers in severe COPD exacerbation
(W B Saunders Co Ltd, London, 2011)
Background: Oxidative stress and inflammation play an important role in the pathogenesis of chronic: obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Objective: Pulmonary function, oxidative stress parameters and inflammatory markers ...
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 ...
A hazardous link between malnutrition, inflammation and oxidative stress in renal patients
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
Background: Atherosclerosis is the main cause of mortality in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Design and methods: Malnutrition, inflammation and diminished paraoxonase activity were used to calculate the sum of ...
Pro-oxidants and antioxidants in retinopathy of prematurity [Pro-oksidansi i antioksidansi u prematurnoj retinopatiji]
(Sestre Milosrdnice Univ Hospital, Zagreb, 2018)
Premature infants are susceptible to oxidative stress that causes neonatal disease such as retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Oxidative stress is an imbalance between the production of pro-oxidants and the ability of the ...
Proxidant antioxidant balance in supplemented elite female volleyball athletes during a six week training period
(Edizioni Minerva Medica, Turin, 2011)
Aim. The objectives of this study were: 1) to evaluate pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance (PAB) associations with the commonly measured parameters of oxidative stress and antioxidative defence in elite female volleyball ...
