PURPOSE: The aim of the study is to show the relationship between oxidative stress and ectopic pregnancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 62 patients, 31 in the ectopic pregnancy group (study group) and 31 in the first-trimester pregnanc…

Objective: This preliminary study aims to use "dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis" with the new Erel method to evaluate the effect of oxidative stress in patients with endometrioma. Material and Method: The study group consisted of 40 case…

Objective: To evaluate the role of oxidative stress in endometriosis patients by determining dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis and ischemia modified albumin (IMA) levels. Patients and Methods: This prospective case-controlled study was co…

Dynamic thiol-disulfide homeostasis (TDH) is a new area has begun to attract more scrutiny. Dynamic TDH is reversal of thiol oxidation in proteins and represents the status of thiols (-SH) and disulfides (-S-S-). Organic compounds containin…

OBJECTIVE: We searched thiol/disulphide homeostasis and ischemia modified albumin (IMA) in patients with and without endometrial polyp (EP) to evaluate whether there is an association between serum oxidative stress markers and EPs. METHODS…

BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress has been proposed as a potential trigger in the etiopathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome-related infertility. Thiol/disulphide homeostasis, a recently identified oxidative stress marker, is one of the antio…

BACKGROUND: There is increasing evidence that oxidative stress may play a role in the pathophysiology of endometriosis. Serum paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) associated enzyme that prevents oxidative modification o…
