The association of antioxidant vitamins and trace elements from foods and supplements with
risk of rheumatoid arthritis was evaluated in a prospective cohort study of 29,368 women …

Antioxidants may protect against development of rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus
erythematosus by combating oxidative stress. The authors identified and confirmed incident …

OBJECTIVES--Oxygen free radicals have been implicated as mediators of tissue damage in
patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Thus it is possible that several micronutrients acting …

Objective Vitamin E supplements may reduce the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis
(RA) through antioxidant effects. Although previous observational studies have investigated …

Antioxidant micronutrients have been hypothesized to provide protection against rheumatoid
arthritis. We investigated serum selenium and serum alpha-tocopherol for their prediction of …

Objective: Excess generation of reactive oxygen species in damaged joints accelerates
inflammatory responses in RA (rheumatoid arthritis) patients. The complementary effects of …

Objective. Cumulative damage to tissues, mediated by reactive oxygen species, has been
implicated as a pathway that leads to many of the degenerative changes associated with …

Background: Epidemiologic studies suggest that the antioxidant potential of dietary
carotenoids may protect against the oxidative damage that can result in inflammation …

Objective: To investigate whether, there is an association between consumption of fruit and
vegetables and dietary antioxidants and the risk of developing inflammatory polyarthritis (IP) …

The inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been linked to poor health outcomes in
older adults. Oxidative stress triggers the production of IL-6, and antioxidant micronutrients …
