This study shows that there is a change in the oxidative stress and antioxidant defences in patients with CTS. Increased TOS and OSI and decreased TAS might be stimulate fibrosis through disturbed signaling pattern in the tenosynovium and median nerve. These processes might play a role in occurrence and progression of CTS.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
