Abstract
Background Paraoxonase-1 is an enzyme with three activities which are inversely related to cardiovascular diseases. Accordingly, the aim of the study was to investigate the paraoxonase, arylesterase activities and oxidative/anti-oxidative status in coronary artery disease (CAD) and their correlation with the extent of CAD.
