Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study Comparative StudyThe plasma 8-OHdG levels and oxidative stress following cholecystectomy: a randomised multicentre study of patients with minilaparotomy cholecystectomy versus laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of 8-OHdG (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine) detecting oxidative stress response following cholecystectomy in a randomised multicentre study of patients with minilaparotomy cholecystectomy (MC) versus laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). ⋯ Our results suggest that the oxidative stress marker 8-OHdG concentrations following surgery in MC versus LC patients were quite similar. A new finding with possible clinical relevance is a correlation between the individual plasma values of the 8-OHdG versus anti-inflammatory interleukin IL-10 and 8-OHdG versus IL-1β (proinflammatory) in the MC and LC patients suggesting that inflammation and oxidative stress are related.
