Does novel Biomarker of Oxidative Stress be Associated With Risk of Death in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease?
A high burden of oxidative stress, quantified by the plasma aminothiols, cystine, glutathione, and their ratio, is associated with mortality in patients with coronary artery disease, a finding that is independent of and additive to the inflammatory burden. Importantly, these data support the emerging role of nonfree radical biology in driving clinically important oxidative stress.
In this study the percentage of SIE prescriptions would be higher than expected by general paediatricians, with no differences in the cases proposed between them and the paediatricians with better knowledge of allergology. Despite these results, it is important to insist on conducting education programmes and disseminating them to facilitate physicians' recognition and treatment of anaphylactic reactions.
