[Lipid peroxidation in patients with type-1 diabetes mellitus]
Abstract:
A study was made of levels of malonic dialdehyde, peroxide hemolysis of erythrocytes, superoxide dismutase activity and a tocopherol content for the purpose of investigating the state of lipid peroxidation in 14 patients with type I diabetes mellitus. Correlation between the state of lipid peroxidation and a degree of diabetes mellitus compensation was established. Decompensated diabetes mellitus was characterized by more enhanced lipid peroxidation and tocopherol deficiency.
