Objective:
We evaluated the levels of ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) and its association with body mass index (BMI) in patients who are obese.
Design And Methods:
Fasting glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, malondialdehyde, and IMA levels were assessed in 148 subjects.
Results:
IMA, malondialdehyde, and fasting glucose levels were significantly higher while the HDL cholesterol levels were lower in obese population.
Conclusions:
IMA levels increase in overweight and obese subjects.
