| ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of ZiShenJiangTangwan on the population with impaired glucose tolerance after the intension of the lifestyle modification.To approach the effect of TCM therapy on impaired glucose tolerance by observing index such as:body mass index,waist circumference,blood pressure,heart rate,fasting plasma glucose,2-h plasma glucose,triglyceride,cholest,high density lipoprotein,low density lipoprotein and so on.Counting the retroconversion rate of impaired glucose tolerance in order to find the objective evidence of traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and cure of impaired glucose tolerance.MethodsIn this study,the total of sixty impaired glucose tolerance patients were divided into groups of A and B,30 cases in each group.Patients of group A only took the intension of the lifestyle change.Patients of group B took ZiShenJiangTangwan and the intension of the lifestyle change.The study took two courses of treatment which were about 6 months.Detecting the index of body mass index,blood pressure,heart rate,fasting plasma glucose,2-h plasma glucose,triglyceride,cholest,high density lipoprotein,low density lipoprotein at the beginning and the end of the study.Counting the retroconversion rate of impaired glucose tolerance and analysising all the indexs by contrasting A and B.ResultsAfter the intension,there is statistical significance between body mass index,waist circumference,fasting plasma glucose,2-h plasma glucose of group B(P<0.05 or P<0.01).The group B's retroconversion rate of IGT is higher than the group A's.It's also statistical significance between group A and group B.Conclusion This study founds that mass index,waist circumference,fasting plasma glucose,2-h plasma glucose of group B were decreased by taking zishenjiangtangwan according to traditional Chinese medicine.This study provids a new idea and a new method for traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and cure of impaired glucose tolerance and diebetes mellitus. |
