Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Blood glucose control by change in FPG, 1,5-AG and HbA1c. Achievement rate of HbA1c goals below 7%.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1 Change in physical findings by change of body weight, adipose mass, basal metabolism and waist circumference 2 Change in biochemical finding 3 Change in lipid metabolism (TC, HDL-C, TG) Change in hepatic and renal function 4 Identification of predictors for improvement of glucose control 5 Upper limit of daily insulin dose which can be changed from insulin therapy to GLP-1 therapy 6 Adverse events 7 Change in hepatokine
