📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objectives: In the study, it was aimed to determine the Thiol/Disulphide profile in patients with relapsed brucellosis and the relationship between Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA) Levels and Thiol/Disulphide profile.Methods: Native thiol, Total thiol, Disulphide, Disulphide/Native thiol, Disulphide/Total thiol, IMA levels were measured in forty patients with relapsed brucellosis and healthy control group by using the newly developed method in this cross-sectional study.Results: There was no statistically significant difference in patients with relapse brucellosis despite the fact that it was lower than total thiol control group (p > 0.05).
📊
Key Findings & Data:Disulphide was detected high in patients with brucellosis but no statistically significant difference was found (p > 0.05).

Abstract
Objectives: In the study, it was aimed to determine the Thiol/Disulphide profile in patients with relapsed brucellosis and the relationship between Ischemia Modified Albumin (IMA) Levels and Thiol/Disulphide profile.Methods: Native thiol, Total thiol, Disulphide, Disulphide/Native thiol, Disulphide/Total thiol, IMA levels were measured in forty patients with relapsed brucellosis and healthy control group by using the newly developed method in this cross-sectional study.Results: There was no statistically significant difference in patients with relapse brucellosis despite the fact that it was lower than total thiol control group (p > 0.05). Disulphide was detected high in patients with brucellosis but no statistically significant difference was found (p > 0.05). Native thiol and total thiol ratios of disulphide were found to be statistically higher in patients with relapsed brucellosis (p < 0.05). In addition, the ratio of native thiol and native thiol to total thiol was statistically lower than the control group (p < 0.05). The levels of IMA were statistically significant in patients with relapsed brucellosis compared to the control group (p
