Table 1.
Characteristics of subjects.
Figure 1.
Concentrations of inflammatory makers (A, B) and adiponectin (C).
*Values were significantly different between the case and control groups; p<0.05. hs-CRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein; IL-6, interleukin-6.
Figure 2.
Concentrations of lipid peroxidation marker (A) and antioxidant enzymes activities (B to D).
*Values were significantly different between the case and control groups; p<0.05. CAT, catalase activity; GPx, glutathione peroxidase; MDA, malondialdehyde; SOD, superoxide dismutase.
