Abstract

Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of death in patients with type 1 diabetes. Since oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL) is considered to be a critical factor in the atherosclerotic process, the aim of our study was to assess the influence of different parameters of glycemic control on susceptibility to oxidative stress from low density lipoprotein (LDL) in patients with type 1 diabetes without microvascular or macrovascular complications.
