Serum free thiols predict cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in the general population: a prospective cohort study

Abstract Background Serum free thiols (R-SH, sulfhydryl groups) reliably reflect systemic oxidative stress. Since serum free thiols are rapidly oxidized by reactive species, systemic oxidative stress is generally associated with reduced serum free thiol levels. Free thiols associate with favorable d...
