[Evaluation of oxidative stress and homocysteine level in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a case-control study]

ABSTRACT

Background and Aim: Along with the development of cardiac diagnostic procedures, new risk factors, such as homocysteine role in cardiovascular disease, have been proposed. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the levels of homocysteine and total antioxidant capacity in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared with the control group
