Abstract
The mechanisms by which hyperhomocysteinemia may promote atherosclerosis in diabetic patients are poorly understood. In conclusion, the present study suggests that in type 2 diabetes, plasma homocysteine levels are influenced by both the duration of disease and metabolic c o n t rol; nevertheless, mild hyperhomocysteinemia still emerges as a major risk factor for CHD, in agreement with pre v ious observationsFile in questo prodotto:
