Abstract

Objective: Oxidative stress has been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders related with obesity. The aim of the study was to investigate the association of oxidative stress and paraoxonase activities with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as well as metabolic syndrome.
