Objective The connection of oxidative stress with dyslipidemia creates a newly-emerging
atherosclerosis risk factor involved in acute ischemic stroke development. This study
analyzed the influence of oxidative stress on structural changes of high-density lipoprotein
(HDL) particles connected with modification in protective paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity.
Methods This study used 185 patients with acute ischemic stroke and 185 apparently
healthy controls. Oxidative stress status, PON1 status, lipids and high-sensitivity C-reactive …
