The relationship between endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress in diabetes and prediabetes

Structured PICO

Are endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress present in subjects with prediabetes (IGT and IFG)?

Population

Subjects with diabetes and prediabetes (impaired glucose tolerance [IGT] and impaired fasting glucose [IFG])

Outcome

Endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress (OS)surrogate

Endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress are already present in prediabetic states (IGT and IFG), indicating early endothelial damage.

Abstract

The results showed that endothelial dysfunction and increased OS were present in subjects with IGT and IFG, indicating endothelial damage in these stages.
