Is cigarette smoking more frequent among insulin-treated diabetics?

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Salsalate is a dimeric form of salicylic acid that has been shown to have anti-inflammatory activity and to reduce glucose levels, insulin resistance, and cytokine expression. However, the effect of salsalate on vascular injury has not been determined. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect ...
