Key result
Adults with metabolic risk factors had significantly higher hsCRP (4783.1 vs 1640.5) and lower serum GSH (3.17 vs 4.79) compared to those without risk factors, indicating greater oxidative stress.
Why the study?
Risk factors of metabolic syndrome are associated with increased inflammation, prompting an evaluation of the correlation between oxidative stress and metabolic risk factors in apparently healthy adults.
Are metabolic risk factors associated with increased oxidative stress markers (hsCRP and GSH) in apparently healthy adults?

Are metabolic risk factors associated with increased oxidative stress markers (hsCRP and GSH) in apparently healthy adults?
Pal et al. (2022) conducted a cross-sectional in Metabolic risk factors (n=120). Metabolic risk factors vs. No metabolic risk factors was evaluated on Serum levels of hsCRP and GSH. Adults with metabolic risk factors had significantly higher hsCRP (4783.1 vs 1640.5) and lower serum GSH (3.17 vs 4.79) compared to those without risk factors, indicating greater oxidative stress.
