Oxidative stress in patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy and mesial temporal sclerosis: Possible association with major depressive disorder?

The present study observed significantly higher serum levels of MDA and of TEAC in patients with refractory TLE-MTS in comparison with the control group. The MDD was observed as an important issue associated with higher OS levels in refractory TLE-MTS. Further studies are needed to investigate the association of OS, TLE-MTS, and PD.
