The aim of study is impact of additional treatment with new antidiabetic drugs (semaglutide or empagliflozine) compared to control group in T1DM patients - impact on endothelial function measured by FMD and FPF, arterial stiffness - measured by PWV, inflammatory biomarkers, markers of oxidative stress and endothelial progenitor cells (CD 34+/VDRL2, CD 133+/VDRL2) and correlation with glucovariability or time in range, measured with CGM system.

evaluation of endothelial function by flow mediated dilation (FMD) of brachial artery
measurement of dilation of brachial artery (in %) before and after postishemic hyperemia comparing two therapeutic groups and control group before and after intervention
Time frame: 12 weeks
evaluation of endothelial function by strain gauge plethysmography as change in forearm blood flow
