PRETREATMENT WITH INTRAVENOUS ASCORBIC ACID PRESERVES ENDOTHELIAL FUNCTION DURING ACUTE HYPERGLYCAEMIA (R1)

1. Acute hyperglycaemia may impair endothelial function. Ascorbic acid (AA), administered intra-arterially, has been reported to improve endothelium-dependent vasodilatation during a forearm hyperglycaemic clamp. Using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over…
