Increased plasma malondialdehyde and fructosamine in anemic <i>H pylori</i> infected patients: Effect of treatment

Abstract

An increased level of fructosamine and MDA was found in anemic H pylori infected patients. Present data supports the premise that lipid peroxides per se do play a role in the glycation of plasma proteins. Furthermore, the findings from this study indicate that treatment for both anemia and H pylori infections is required for lowering the levels of lipid peroxides in these patients.
