Salivary Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Thai Adolescents and Young Adults with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Aims And Objectives: The primary objectives of this study were to compare salivary oxidative stress (OS) biomarker levels in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and without T1DM (non-T1DM) and evaluate the relationships between diabetes, periodontal status, and OS biomarker levels.
