ACTA REUMATOLOGICA PORTUGUESA, vol.39, no.4, pp.316-321, 2014 (SCI-Expanded)
Objective. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory, autosomal recessive, inherited disease characterized by recurrent self-limiting attacks of serosal surfaces. The imbalance of oxidants/antioxidants may play a role in such attacks. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between serum paraoxonase (PON1) activity PON1 phenotype, and other parameters in patients with FMF and healthy controls.
