Plasma levels of oxidative stress biomarkers and proinflammatory cytokines.

Parameter	T2DM (𝑛=29)	ND (𝑛=16)	𝑃
Nitric Oxide (𝜇M)	53.5±12.9	51.13±8.7	ns
MDA (𝜇M)	14.5±3.5	8.7±3.3	<0.05
IL-6 (pg/mL)	119.1±23.3	97.6±13.5	<0.05
TNF-alpha (pg/mL)	78.7±32.7	58.5±29.5	<0.05

Data as means ± SD.
ns: not significant.
Significant differences between the groups were determined using Student’s 𝑡-test (𝑃<0.05).
