Methods: Enrolled in a casecontrol study were 70 randomly sampled CBPP and 70 randomly sampled healthy adult volunteers (HAV), on whom plasma nitric oxide (NO), vitamin C (VC), vitamin E (VE) and β-carotene (β-CAR) level, erythrocyte malondialdehyde (MDA) level, as well as erythrocyte superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activities were determined by spectrophotometry. Results: Compared with the HAV group, values of plasma NO and erythrocyte MDA in the CBPP group were significantly increased (P 〈 0.001); those of plasma VC, VE and β-CAR as well as erythrocyte SOD, CAT and GPX activities in the CBPP group were significantly decreased (P 〈 0.001). Findings from partial correlation for the 70 CBPP showed that with prolonged course of disease, values of NO and MDA were gradually increased (P 〈 0.001), and those of VC, VE, β-CAR, SOD, CAT and GPX were gradually decreased (P 〈 0.05- 0.001). The findings from stepwise regression for the 70 CBPP suggested that the model was Y= -13.2077 + 0.1894MDA + 0.0415NO - 0.1999GPX, F = 18.2047, P 〈 0.001, r = 0.6729, P 〈 0.001. Conclusion: The findings suggest that there exist increased oxidative stress and oxidative damage induced by chronic bacterial prostatitis in the patients, and such phenomenon was closely related to the course of disease.展开更多

Methods Eighty patients with CBP and 80 healthy adults as controls were enrolled in a case-control study, in which levels of nitric oxide (NO), vitamin C (VC), and vitamin E (VE) in plasma, as well as malondialdehyde (MDA), activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), and eatalase (CAT) in erythrocytes were determined by spectrophotometry. Results Compared with the average values of NO, VC, VE, MDA, SOD, and CAT in the healthy control group, those of plasma N O and erythrocyte MDA in the CBP group were significantly increased (P〈0.00 1), and those of plasma VC and VE as well as erythrocyte SOD and CAT in the CBP group were significantly decreased (P〈0.001). Findings from partial correlation analysis for course of the disease and NO, VC, VE, MDA, SOD, and CAT in 80 patients with CBP, adjusted for age, suggested that with prolonged course of the disease, values of NO and MDA were gradually increased (P〈0.001), and those of VC, VE, SOD, and CAT were gradually decreased (P〈0.05-0.001). The findings from stepwise regression analysis for course of the disease and NO, VC, VE, MDA, SOD, and CAT in CBP group suggested that the model of stepwise regression was Y = -19.1160 +0.3112MDA + 0.0337NO, F = 22.1734, P〈0.001, r = 0.6045, P〈0.001. The findings from the reliability analysis for VC, VE, SOD, CAT, NO, and MDA in the CBP group showed that the reliability coefficients' alpha (6 items) was 0.7195, P〈0.0001, and the standardized item alpha was 0.9307, P〈0.0001. Conclusion There exist increased oxidative stress and damage induced by chronic bacterial prostatitis in patients, and such a phenomenon is closely related to the course of disease.展开更多
