Özet

OBJECTIVE Low serum paraoxonase (PON) activity is thought to be a risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. The present study was designed to evaluate PON1 activity and its relationship with preatherosclerotic markers such as lipid peroxidation and insulin resistance in hyperthyroid patients before and after propylthiouracil (PTU) treatment and in subjects with iatrogenic subclinical hyperthyroidism.
