Abstract excerpt
Serum paraoxonase (PON1) is an esterase that is involved in the detoxification of organophosphate insecticides. Emerging lines of evidence have shown that functional polymorphisms in the PON1 gene might play a critical role in increasing susceptibility to organophosphate toxicity, but individually published studies showed inconclusive results. This meta-analysis aimed to derive a more precise estimation of the...
