TL;DR: The data suggest that supplementation of well-controlled type 2 diabetics with Cr-enriched yeast is safe and can result in improvements in blood glucose variables and oxidative stress.

TL;DR: Folate may be considered as an effective antioxidant in patients with hyperhomocysteinemia; this can be a result of decreased production of free radicals due to a reduced level of homocysteine, but its antioxidative effect cannot be promoted by co-administration of antioxidants.

TL;DR: The changes and correlations of IgoxLDL, anti-beta-2-glycoprotein I IgG and antiphospholipid antibodies support the immunological link between thrombotic and atherosclerotic processes in the human body.

TL;DR: In this article, the level of DNA strand breaks as well as DNA repair processes using comet assay modifications was examined in children with Type 1 diabetes and their 1st degree relatives and confirmed increased oxidative stress in diabetic children.

TL;DR: It is evident that decreased antioxidative protection and simultaneous free radical overproduction occur in diabetic children and that there is a similar, but not significant, tendency in their siblings.
