Scientific titleFeasibility study to use new techniques/biomarkers to measure oxidative stress and the influence of vitamin E and C on these parameters in patients suffering from intermittent claudication
Study objectivesMultivariate Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) can be used to measure oxidative stress in patients suffering from intermittent claudication.
Ethics approval(s)Approval received by the Medical Ethical Review Board of Máxima Medical Centre in Eindhoven/Veldhoven on October 2, 2001 (ref: METC 0114).
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedIntermittent claudication
InterventionPatients will receive antioxidant supplementation with high concentrations of vitamin E (200 mg/day) and vitamin C (1000 mg/day) during four weeks.
Intervention typeSupplement
Primary outcome measure(s)Levels of 'new' parameters of oxidative stress like isofuranes and halogenated phospholipids are determined. Also vascular parameters (fibrinogen, Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 [PAI-1] activity etc.,) and endothelial damage parameters (soluble thrombomodulin, von Willebrand factor etc.,) are determined. New techniques like multivariate NMR will be determined for their usefulness in the above mentioned type of studies.
Key secondary outcome measure(s)No secondary outcome measures
