An evaluation of oxidative and nitrosative stress in children-who-stutter and its relationship to severity

The results of the study showed that the oxidative and nitrosative stress levels of the stuttering patients were higher than those of the control group. With 100% sensitivity and specificity, it is thought that NO in particular could be important for the diagnosis and treatment of these patients. As the severity of the stutter increased, so there was an increase in MDA, suggesting that MDA is important in stuttering.
