Abstract excerpt
The haptoglobin (Hp) 2 allele directly predicts coronary artery disease in type 1 diabetes, potentially due to its decreased antioxidative/anti-inflammatory properties. We measured the concentrations of oxidative/inflammatory biomarkers (urinary 15-isoprostane F(2t) [IsoP], α- and γ-tocopherol, tumor necrosis factor α [TNF-α], high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hsCRP], white blood cell [WBC] count, fibrinogen,...
