BackgroundObesity is a significant worldwide health problem that is linked with mental health. The elucidation of the possible overlapping biochemical mechanism(s) involved in inflammation and oxidative stress is imperative to better understand and address obesity and related metabolic disorders. The aim of the study was to investigate the associations between inflammatory and oxidative stress profiles with parameters that reflect metabolic, emotional, and mental health in a Greek metabolically unhealthy obese cohort.MethodsIn total, 122 metabolically unhealthy people with obesity were recruited. Anthropometric measurements, biochemical, inflammatory and oxidative stress markers were assessed. Quality of life was evaluated through questionnaires for insomnia, self-esteem, depression, physical and mental health.ResultsThe inflammatory biomarker tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and the ratio oxidized low-density lipoprotein/low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL/LDL) were higher in hypertensive (p=0.002, p=0.001 respectively) and hyperglycemic subjects (p=0.017, p=0.001 respectively). Furthermore TNF-α (p |
