Why the study?
Are endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress present in subjects with prediabetes (IGT and IFG)?
Are endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress present in subjects with prediabetes (IGT and IFG)?
Endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress are already present in prediabetic states (IGT and IFG), indicating early endothelial damage.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May signal early vascular risk in prediabetes; leaves open whether targeting oxidative stress improves outcomes.
The results showed that endothelial dysfunction and increased OS were present in subjects with IGT and IFG, indicating endothelial damage in these stages.
