Evaluation of Circulating Biochemical Markers and Antioxidant Capacity

It is concluded that patients suffering from essential hypertension exhibit that biological system is under the oxidative stress where MDA shows indirect correlation with anti-oxidants particularly with SOD (r=-0.573 ) and catalase (r=-0.633 ) representing that anti-oxidants are involved in reducing the stress of biological system during hypertension. Moreover, indirect correlation between MDA and Vitamin D (r=-0.663 ) reflecting that biological system is also facing the malfunctioning of immune system during essential hypertension.
