Conditions

Glycemic Remission, Newly Diagnosed Type 2 Diabetes, Simplified Short-term Intensive Insulin Therapy

Brief summary

Short-term intensive insulin therapy is shown to induced glycemic remission, but traditionally patients were hospitalized for 2-4 weeks in order to receive the therapy, the long inpatient period precluded the wide application of the thrapy. This study aims to invesitgate whether simplified regimen is non-inferior to traditional regimen in achieving long-term glycemic remisson.

Interventions

DRUGSimplified intensive insulin therapy regimen

Short-term continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion to maitain near normoglycemica for 1 week, thereafter basal insulin and metformin were subsequently used. Wearable devices and smart apps will be used for lifestyle modification.

DRUGTraditional Short-term Intensive insulin therapy

Short-term continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion will be initiate to maitain near normoglycemica for 2 weeks, then patients will be ordinarily follow-up
