Abstract:
The activity of free radical oxidation in patients with diabetes mellitus was investigated with respect to a type of diabetes using chemiluminescence. Clinical, laboratory and instrumental investigation of 80 patients with diabetes mellitus was conducted. The level of free radical oxidation in the patients changed as compared to that in the controls. Direct correlation between an increase in a degree of severity of disease and a rise of the level of chemiluminescence was discovered. Changes of lipid peroxidation in patients with diabetes mellitus permitted sound recommendation of drugs with antioxidant and membrane-stabilizing properties.

Pathophysiology of Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility, suggesting a...
