Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the possible roles of paraoxonase PON , arylesterase ARE , ischemia-modified albumin IMA and albumin-adjusted IMA levels in patients with Bell palsy. Patients and Methods: Thirty patients with Bell palsy and 30 healthy control subjects were included in the study. Serum PON, ARE, IMA, albumin-adjusted IMA and lipid profiles were measured. Results: Paraoxonase and ARE levels of the patient group were significantly lower than controls p<0.001, p<0.001, respectively and IMA, albumin-adjusted IMA levels were significantly higher than controls p<0.001, p=0.002, respectively . Conclusion: This study suggests that oxidative stress may have a role in the pathophysiology of Bell palsy.
