Journal ArticleDOI

Is depression associated with increased oxidative stress? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: It is found that oxidative stress, as measured by 8-OHdG and F2-isoprostanes, is increased in depression, and larger-scale studies are needed to extend the evidence on oxidative stress in depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myeloperoxidase: A Useful Biomarker for Cardiovascular Disease Risk Stratification?

TL;DR: Increasing evidence suggests that MPO is causally linked to atherosclerosis and its measurement may improve CVD risk estimation, and before MPO can be used in routine clinical practice, standardization of sampling and laboratory procedures is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased lysophosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylcholine ratio in cerebrospinal fluid in Alzheimer's disease.

TL;DR: The lower lyso-PC/PC ratio in CSF of patients with AD may reflect alterations in the metabolism of choline-containing phospholipids in the brain in AD, and suggests that PC species containing linoleic acid or arachidonic acid are equally involved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two consecutive high-fat meals affect endothelial-dependent vasodilation, oxidative stress and cellular microparticles in healthy men

TL;DR: In healthy males, after two consecutive fat‐rich meals, mild elevations in plasma glucose and triacylglycerol were paralleled by impaired FMD, increased markers of oxidative stress and circulating MPs, in particular, after the second meal, which may have consequences for subjects with postprandial dysmetabolism, including those with Type 2 diabetes.
