Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
To evaluate the effect of oral administration of herbarium mixture Guazuma ulmifolia (GU) and Tecoma stans (TS) on metabolic profile in type 2 diabetic patients.
Detailed description
A randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, clinical trial was carried out 40 type 2 diabetic patients independently of their basal hypoglycemic treatment. At beginning and at end of the study, BMI, waist circumference, a metabolic profile (fasting glucose, HbA1c, lipids and biosecurity profile), were measured. The patients were randomly assigned to receive the herbarium mixture (GU/TS) 1 g before each meal, or placebo for a period of 90 days. All patients received therapy medical nutrition.
Interventions
Guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) -Tecoma stans (86.4 mg) = 400 mg per capsule
Calcined magnesia 400 mg per capsule

Study design
Masking description
Simple random. It was done with a table of numbers using random selection program Excel 2010.
Intervention model description
Two study groups were formed that were randomly assigned with the closed envelope technique to the corresponding group. Group Placebo vs. Guazuma ulmifolia plusTecoma stans

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Modification in fasting glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes after of administration of combination with Guazuma ulmifolia and Tecoma stans | 90 days | In both groups (intervention and placebo ) of 20 patients each , all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, glucose was measured in mg/dL, before and after the administration of the combination guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) and tecoma stans (86.4 mg), one capsule before each food for a period of 90 days. The patient was on a 12-hour fast. |
| Modification in HbA1c in patients with type 2 diabetes after of administration of combination with Guazuma ulmifolia and Tecoma stans | 90 days | In both groups (intervention and placebo ) of 20 patients each , all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, HbA1c was measured in %, before and after the administration of the combination guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) and tecoma stans (86.4 mg), one capsule before each food for a period of 90 days. The patient was on a 12-hour fast. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes after of administration of combination with Guazuma ulmifolia and Tecoma stans | 90 days | In both groups (intervention and placebo ) of 20 patients each , all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, lipid profile was measured in mg/dL, before and after the administration of the combination guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) and tecoma stans (86.4 mg), one capsule before each food for a period of 90 days. The patient was on a 12-hour fast. |
| Modification in insulin in patients with type 2 diabetes after of administration of combination with Guazuma ulmifolia and Tecoma stans | 90 days | In both groups (intervention and placebo ) of 20 patients each, all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, insulin was measured in uU/mL, before and after the administration of the combination guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) and tecoma stans (86.4 mg), one capsule before each food for a period of 90 days. The patient was on a 12-hour fast. |
| Hepatic safety of administration of guazuma, tecoma through the determination of hepatic profile | 90 days | The hepatic profile was determined through the serum levels of transaminases in U/L (Glutamic oxalacetic transaminase and Glutamic pyruvic transaminase) after of administration during 90 days of the combination guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) and tecoma stans (86.4 mg). The patient was on a 12-hour fast. |
| Renal safety of administration of guazuma, tecoma through the determination of serum creatinine | 90 days | The serum creatinine was measured in mg/dL, before and after of administration during 90 days of the combination guazuma ulmifolia (313.6 mg) and tecoma stans (86.4 mg).
