BACKGROUND: Hyperglycemia in type 2 of diabetes significantly contributes to oxidative load, which in turn promotes the evolution of vascular complications. Since Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is a key enzyme in antioxidant defense, our study aimed to evaluate the correlation between G6PD activity and the presence and pattern of vascular complications in individuals with type 2 diabetes...
