The aim of this study, which included patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, was to determine the influence of the application of various treatment modalities (intensive or conventional) on the total plasma antioxidative capacity and lipid peroxidation intensity expressed as malondialdehyde (MDA) level, catalase and xanthine oxidase activity, erythrocyte glutatione reduced concentration (GSH RBC), erythrocyte MDA level (MDA RBC), as well as susceptibility of erythrocyte to H2O2-induced oxidative stress.
