Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main endpoint of this study will be the value of erythrocyte-bound<br /><br>apolipoprotein B in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Secondary endpoints will be the relation of erythrocyte-bound apolipoprotein B<br /><br>levels in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2 in association to<br /><br>clinical or subclinical atherosclerosis. Furthermore we will compare the level<br /><br>of and erythrocyte-bound apolipoprotein B in patients with diabetes mellitus<br /><br>against these levels in controls without diabetes mellitus. Finally, we want to<br /><br>study the levels of factors associated with complement activation in relation<br /><br>to ery- apo B values including DNA polymorphism.</p><br>
