Unbalanced Oxidant-Antioxidant Status: A Potential Therapeutic Target for Coronary Chronic Total Occlusion in Very Old Patients

Table 2

Levels of Circulating NO, eNOS, MDA, and SOD3 in very old patients with coronary stenosis.

	CON	SVD	MVD without CTO	MVD with one CTO	MVD with multiple CTO
NO (μmol/L)
eNOS (pg/mL)
MDA (nmol/L)
SOD3 (U/mL)

MDA: malondialdehyde; NO: nitric oxide; eNOS: endothelial nitric oxide synthase; SOD3: superoxide dismutase 3.
< 0.001 (MVD without CTO/MVD with one CTO). < 0.001 (MVD with one CTO/MVD with multiple CTO).
