“…up to 1-year follow-up of the patients. Other authors from our country [7][8][9][10][11] have already focused mainly on epidemiological studies with special reference to the risk factors of CHD, whereas published data regarding clinical features and hospital outcome of Iranian patients with AMI are scanty. Following the patients to determine the course of the disease after discharge from hospital is a unique aspect to this study, not reported previously by investigators from our country.…”

Although our patients were younger than myocardial infarction patients in developed countries, they had a higher rate of in-hospital mortality than those of the international statistics. This may be due, in part, to the lower rate of administration of primary reperfusion strategies in our center, namely primary percutaneous coronary intervention and thrombolytic therapy, which have proved to be effective in reducing the mortality from myocardial infarction in the west. Wider application of primary percutaneous coronary intervention, in particular, is recommended.

“…A concomitant increase in peroxidation products was also found in the control group, confirming that coenzyme Q 10 (as well as retinol) is essential for antioxidant activity by ␣-tocopherol to attenuate plasma peroxidation. 28 Curcuma treatment (CU group) significantly buffered such impaired oxidant/antioxidant unbalance, leading to levels of TBARS similar to baseline levels and to less reduced coenzyme Q 10 levels. Moreover, similar (for 10 days) or higher plasma levels of ␣-tocopherol (20 and 30 days), compared with baseline levels, were found.…”

“…Most studies on the relationship between physical activity and oxidative stress focus on the influence of exercise on oxidative stress and only a few studies emphasise the relationship between occupational or household work and oxidative stress 20,21 . Some studies have shown that physical activity from occupational work makes up a large portion of total physical activity.…”

Objective: To investigate the relationship between different types and levels of physical activity and cardiovascular disease risk factors, including oxidative stress, blood lipids and insulin resistance, in a healthy female population in China. Method: Healthy women ðn ¼ 761Þ aged 35 to 65 years participated in this study. The habitual physical activity was evaluated by self-administered questionnaire (MOSPA). The dietary intakes of nutrients were calculated from 3-day recall records. Anthropometric data of each subject were measured, fasting blood samples were taken, and erythrocytes and serum were prepared for the measurement of erythrocyte superoxide dismutase activity, serum malondialdehyde, total antioxidant capacity, insulin, glucose and lipids (total cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein AI (apo A) and apolipoprotein B (apo B)) concentrations. Results: Low level of physical activity was related to a lower concentration of serum apo B, and higher energy expenditure from household physical activity had a reverse relationship with serum apo B and triglyceride levels. In the group with moderate occupational energy expenditure, the concentration of serum triglycerides was lower, but that of high-density lipoprotein was higher. Moderate energy expenditure (less than 1700 kcal day 21) from leisure-time physical activity was positively related to total antioxidant capacity and insulin sensitivity. However, heavy occupational physical activity may be not beneficial for the cardiovascular system. Conclusion: This study indicates that leisure-time, moderate occupational and household physical activity levels decreased risk factors for cardiovascular disease.
