Effect of vitamins C and E on insulin resistance in diabetes: a meta-analysis study.

abstract：BACKGROUND:There is ongoing controversy whether angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-I) contribute to anaemia by causing hyporesponsiveness to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA). However, it is unknown whether or not plasma levels or area under the curve (AUC) of ACE-I are associated with responsiveness t...
