Title: Effects of low-fat diet on body mass,blood lipids and sugar control in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
Abstract: Objective To study the effects of low-fat diet on body mass,blood lipids and sugar in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods 120 obese patients with T2DM were randomized to the two groups,research group:60 obese patients with T2MD got routine treatment of low-fat associated with biguanides diet,control group:60 obese patients with T2MD were advised on the treatment of the routine diabetic diet.Outcome measures of body mass,HbA1c,blood pressure and blood lipids were obtained before and after treatment.Results After one year of treatment,body mass and HbA1c in research group reduced by(6.6±1.4) kg and(2.8±0.3)%,and those in control group reduced by(3.4±1.2) kg,(1.0±0.2)%(P0.05).Before treatment,TC and LDL-C in research group were(4.44±0.82) mmol/L and(2.56±0.61) mmol/L,and those in control group were(4.38±0.84) mmol/L and(2.54±0.70) mmol/L.After treatment,TC and LDL-C in research group were(3.90±0.73) mmol/L,(2.04±0.62) mmol/L,and those in control group were(4.26±0.72) mmol/L,(2.48±0.65) mmol/L,and two groups showed statistical significance after treatment(P0.05).Conclusion Low-fat diet can improve body mass,HbA1c,TC and LDL-C of T2DM patients and curative effect is better than the conventional control group,and it is an effective way in the treatment of obese patients with T2DM.
