Objective: We aimed on this study to evaluate serum Glutathione Reductase (GR) Enzyme concentration, and see if there a correlation with disease activity in patient with RA, and compare it with healthy control. Subject and Method: The study had included on (130) subjects, (100) patient wit.. Read More»
