Background: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of thiol-disulfide homeostasis in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
Methods: Between January 2018 and October 2018, a total of 51 patients (43 males, 8 females; mean age 61.8±8.7 years; range, 38 to 78 years) who underwent isolated on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting were included. Thiol-disulfide homeostasis parameters were studied in the preoperative period (T1), 30 min after the removal of cross-clamp (T2), and postoperative sixth h (T3). Hemodynamic parameters such as atrial fibrillation and inotropic support requirement of the patients were evaluated in the postoperative period.
Results: There were significant differences in the measured thiol-disulfide homeostasis parameters at different time points of surgery (p<0.001). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that T2-disulfide/native thiol ratio was an independent predictor of the development of postoperative atrial fibrillation (p=0.042). There were positive and significant correlations between the T2-disulfide levels and cross-clamp time (r:0.307, p=0.029).
Conclusion: Thiol-disulfide homeostasis in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting changes toward to disulfide. Disulfide levels increase in parallel with prolonged ischemia time. Decreased native thiol and increased disulfide levels during ischemic period may be predictive of postoperative atrial fibrillation.

Objective: The aim is to contrast the serum levels of thiol-disulfide homeostasis and ischemic modified albumin between patients with leiomyoma and healthy individuals and to assess the impact of oxidative stress on the etiopathogenesis of leiomyoma.
Methods: In this prospective case-control study, a total of 154 participants were included, consisting of 77 cases diagnosed with leiomyoma and 77 healthy individuals without leiomyoma. The demographic characteristics and ultrasonographic findings of the participants were recorded, and parameters such as albumin, ischemia-modified albumin, and thiol-disulfide homeostasis were evaluated.

Background: This study was designed to assess if thiol-disulfide homeostasis could be used as diagnostic biomarker in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in a laboratory animal model.
Methods: The study was carried out with a total of 28 female albino rats in 4 groups: group 1 (control group) included rats that were not exposed to noise or any study treatment; in group 2, following noise exposure, rats received 2 mg of dexamethasone per kilogram of body weight via the intramuscular route for 5 days; in Group 3, rats were exposed to noise and received a saline solution for 5 days, in a volume (0.15 cc) matched to that of dexamethasone administered in group 2; and in group 4, rats were exposed to noise, and blood samples were collected during the early phase to assess thiol-disulfide homeostasis without administering any treatment.

Purpose: Pregnancy induces significant metabolic, immunological, and endocrinological changes to support fetal growth. The 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is standard for gestational diabetes screening, but concerns exist about its potential to induce oxidative stress, affecting both maternal and fetal health. The aim of the study is examining changes in oxidative stress markers and thiol/disulfide homeostasis in pregnant women to evaluate these concerns.

Background/aims: Crohn's disease (CD) is a major subtype of chronic relapsing inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders. In this study, we assessed the possible contributions of serum oxidative/nitrosative stress and dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis to CD pathogenesis.
Materials And Methods: Patients with active CD (A-CD) at onset (n = 38), CD patients in the remission (R-CD) (n = 38), and healthy controls (n = 38) were prospectively included in this study.

Introduction: It has been indicated that the thiol-disulfide homeostasis plays a role in the pathogenesis of COVID-19 infection. We assessed the impact on the thiol-disulfide homeostasis at 15-day intervals until 60 days, implicated in the pathogenesis of COVID-19, and its clinical relevance in disease progression.
Methods: In this study, 43 COVID-19 patients (18 females and 25 males) were categorized based on symptom severity, age group, and body mass index.
