Effect of Shenqi Compound Recipe on Intestinal Microecology of Patients with Qi and Yin Deficiency and Blood Stasis Syndrome Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the effect of Shenqi compound recipe on glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and its intervention effect on intestinal microecology and serum proinflammatory factors. Method: The 106 eligible patients were divided into the observation group (54 cases) and the control group (52 cases) by random number table method. Another 40 healthy volunteers in physical examination center of the hospital during the same period were enrolled as health control group. On the basis of Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes in China(2013 edition), control group was provided lifestyle interventions, such as reasonable diet, weight control, moderate exercise, salt restriction, tobacco control, alcohol restriction and psychological balance. In addition to the therapy of the control group, the observation group was given Shengi compound for oral administration, 2 times/days. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. The fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial 2 h blood glucose (PBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) before and after treatment were evaluated. The structure and quantity of intestinal flora before and after treatment were detected. The traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)symptom was scored. The levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured before and after treatment. Result: FBG, PBG, HbA1c and HOMA-IR levels in observation group were lower than those in control group (PPPPβ, IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α levels in observation group were lower than those in control group (PZ=2.134, PConclusion: Shenqi compound can regulate blood glucose and blood lipid in patients with newly diagnosed T2DM (Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome), improve IR, intestinal microecology imbalance, and reduce non-specific inflammatory response, with a good clinical efficacy on intestinal microecology of patients with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus.
