The Effect of Cardiac Rehabilitation on Oxidative DNA Damage and Inflammation in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
TC Erciyes University
70 participants
May 15, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The objective of this study was to determine the levels of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), an indicator of oxidative stress, and to demonstrate oxidative DNA damage in cardiac rehabilitation treatment in patients with coronary artery disease. Additionally, proinflammatory cytokines TNFα, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels were measured to evaluate the significance of cardiac rehabilitation treatment in patients with coronary artery disease and to assess the correlation between cytokine levels and 8-OHdG levels.
