Popis: Background: Oxysterols have been shown to play a role in plaque formation while ischemia modified albumin (IMA) is widely accepted as an acute marker for ischemia. The effort test is one of the methods used to identify the presence of coronary artery disease. Thus, there may be a relationship between effort test result and the levels of IMA, 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC) and cholestane-3β,5α,6β-triol (C-triol). Methods: Thirty patients who underwent effort test and 30 healthy subjects were included in the study. IMA levels were determined with the albumin-cobalt binding test, 7-KC and C-triol levels were determined with LC-MS/MS. Among the patients, two subgroups were identified according to the results of the effort test, group 1 consisted of patients with a positive effort test (n = 12), and group 2 consisted of patients who had a negative effort test (n = 18). Results: 7-KC levels of patients were significantly higher compared to healthy subjects (39.87 ± 2.13 ng/mL, 20.26 ± 1.35 ng/mL; p=0.001). In patients, post-test 7-KC levels were significantly lower than pre-test levels (posttest vs. pre-test: 37.73 ± 2.44 ng/mL vs. 41.07 ± 2.18 ng/mL; p
