Increased risk of osteoporosis in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis
BACKGROUND We evaluated the risk of osteoporosis in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) using a nationwide population-based dataset. METHODS In a cohort study of 986,713 individuals, we selected 2,493 PBC patients who were aged 18 years or older and had been diagnosed with PBC, based on the International Classification of Disease (ICD-9-CM) codes 571.6, during 20002010. The control ...
متن کاملComparison of Prooxidant-antioxidant Balance Method with Crocin Method for Determination of Total Prooxidant-antioxidant Capacity
Objective(s) Comparison of prooxidant-antioxidant balance (PAB) assay with crocin assay. Materials and Methods Twenty eight serum samples were chosen, PAB and the total antioxidant capacity were measured by PAB assay and crocin, respectively, and the correlation of both assays, along with their correlation with other clinical and biochemical parameters, were determined. Results A significa...
متن کاملSerum total antioxidant capacity in patients with multiple sclerosis.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). It is characterized by loss of myelin, the fatty tissue that surrounds and protects nerve fibres allowing them to conduct electrical impulses. Recent data indicate that oxidative stress (OS) plays a major role in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). The aim of this study was to estimate level ...
متن کاملAntioxidant Status in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome as Measured by the Stable Free Radical Diphenylpicrylhydrazyl Assay
Objective: Oxidative stress is involved in the pathophysiology of diabetes and cardiovascular complications of metabolic syndrome. The main objective of this study was to evaluate total antioxidant status by diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH)-scavenging activity in patients developed metabolic syndrome (MetS). Materials and Methods: Forty-four patients with MetS diagnosed on the basis of adult tre...
متن کاملAntioxidant Levels in the Saliva of Patients with Cirrhosis Compared with Patients Post-Transplantation
The aim of this study was to compare antioxidant levels of saliva in patients with cirrhosis and liver transplantation. This study was carried out on 45 subjects referred to the Gastroenterohepatology Clinic of Dicle University Medical Faculty. These subjects were composed of cirrhosis, transplanted patients, and control group with no liver problems. The saliva samples were taken in the morning...
