"Urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG)"
That's the latest marker for increased oxidative stress.

The purpose of our study was to examine the effects of job stress
factors on oxidative DNA injuries among female workers.
The levels of urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) were measured
along with a survey on work conditions and environments.
The result showed that female workers in shift work excreted increased
levels of 8-OH-dG in comparison with the result of those who were
engaged in part time work (P < 0.01).
Moreover, the nurses who marked higher depressive scores excreted
significantly increased levels of urinary 8-OH-dG than the nurses who
scored lower depressive states.
The result revealed a positive correlation between 8-OH-dG levels of
nurses in the 35-45 age group and the individual scores of their
depressive states (r = 0.32, P < 0.05).
Together, it was suggested that a heavy burden of work in addition to
daily domestic roles increases urinary excretion levels of 8-OH-dG.
