    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) patients can start developing micro- and macrovascular complications during childhood and are known to have vascular impairments such asendothelial dysfunction, vessel stiffness and reduced capillary density. Angiogenesis is theformation of new blood vessels from existing ones and is well documented to occur in healthyindividuals in response to various exercise modalities. READ MORE
