Biomarkers	Institutionalized ()	Noninstitutionalized ()
MDA (µmol L^−1)	7.59 ± 0.17^a	6.22 ± 0.27
PCO (nmol mg^−1 protein)	0.37 ± 0.01^b	0.30 ± 0.01
GPx (µmol NADPH min^−1 mg^−1 protein)	9.51 ± 0.53^b	17.31 ± 0.94

The values were adjusted for age and Charlson Comorbidity Index and expressed as mean ± SEM.
