Abstract
Recent reports of high dehydroascorbic acid levels in Asian subjects suffering from diabetes mellitus have led us to examine plasma dehydroascorbic acid levels in diabetic and non-diabetic Europeans. We can find no evidence that diabetic patients have higher plasma dehydroascorbic acid levels than nondiabetics, and consider some possible reasons for the discrepancy between this finding and those of earlier reports.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
