- Abstract
The article discusses the results of a study on the link between adiposity measures and oxidative stress biomarkers glutathione (GSH), GSH peroxidase (GSH-PX), vitamin C, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) among police officers in Buffalo, New York. GSH was associated with waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio. GSH-PX was associated with body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-height ratio. No relationships were found between TEAC, TBARS and oxidative stress score with any measure.
