Abstract

Background: Oxidative stress may induce brain injury. Thiols are one of the most important antioxidant agents, and thiol/ disulphide (SH/SS) homeo stasis is a novel oxidative stress marker. The goal of the study was to investigate the relationship of thiol levels and SH/SS homeostasis with head trauma in pediatric patients.
