“…Moreover, paraoxonase activity was negatively correlated with the extent and severity of CAD. In a previous study with Turkish population, serum paraoxonase activity of patients with coronary heart disease was found to be lower than control subjects but the difference was not statistically significant (17). However, their study group was relatively small (51 controls and 57 patients) and the patients were not precisely defined whereas a fairly larger group (110 controls and 131 patients) with angiographically documented coronary artery status was enrolled in our study.…”

“…Cross-sectional [27] and case-control studies [28,29] have not consistently shown an association between paraoxonase activity and various end-points of CHD, although two case-control studies yielded a positive association [26,30]. However, the smaller numbers of subjects involved in these studies may account for the contradictory results.…”

“…6,17,18,22,[26][27][28] In the present study, the evaluation of PON192 genotype distribution between healthy controls and CAD patients did not show any significant difference PON192 polymorphism in Turkish populations also showed no significant difference in the distribution of PON192 genotypes or alleles between CAD patients and controls. 29,30 PON is located on the surface of apoprotein-AI and J containing HDL-C and has a pivotal role in preventing LDL-C oxidation. 31,32 PON polymorphisms were suggested to be associated with plasma lipid levels and therefore with CAD.…”
