Abbreviations: MPO, myeloperoxidase; CK-18, cytokeratin 18; XOD, xanthine oxidase; IL-6, interleukin-6; TFNα, tumor necrosis factor alpha. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM. Statistics by two-way ANOVA: AMD effect of adherence to the Mediterranean diet, T effect of time, AMD × T interaction between adherence to the Mediterranean diet and time. # Difference in means between time. Each variable was adjusted by baseline values of the analyzed variable.
