## Abstract Increasing evidence in both experimental and clinical studies suggests that oxidative stress plays a major role in the pathogenesis of both types of diabetes mellitus. Free radicals are formed disproportionately in diabetes by glucose oxidation, nonenzymatic glycation of proteins, and t
The scope of the present review is to describe epidemiology, classification, symptomatology and treatment of diabetic peripheral somatic neuropathy and autonomic neuropathy. Special attention is paid to the use of local anaesthetic agents in painful diabetic neuropathy. Denervation hypersensitivity
Oxidative stress and the role of free oxygen radicals in disease have been extensively discussed in the scientific community for several decades. In the early 1980s, Linus Pauling proposed that the antioxidant effects of high doses of vitamin C might help treat cancer. 1 Since then, numerous studies
