ABSTRACT
Oxidative Modification of Blood Serum Proteins due to free radical stress has been studies in 65 patients Diabetes Mellitus [DM] and Myocardial Infarction [MI]. It has been shown that both DM and MI patients have increased level of Oxidatively Modified Human Serum Proteins [OMHSP] as compared to healthy persons. Diabetic patients had a significantly higher level and slower dynamic of OMHSP that non-diabetic patients did during 14 days after the onset of Acute MI. The data suggest that oxidative modification of proteins may be a possible factor contributing to the poorer outcome of MI in diabetic patients. The study was conducted in Cardiology and Medical units of Allama Iqbal Medical College /Jinnah Hospital Lahore during 2001-2002
