Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to find out whether the hypoglycemic and improving insulin resistance effect will appear or not when EA applying on specific acupoints of NIDDM patients
Detailed Description:
Some previous animal model studies reveal that electroacupuncture EA applying on specific acupoints such as Zhongwan and Zusanli acupoint can reduce plasma glucose levels and encourage insulin secretion even improve insulin resistance In this study we want to observe these results on type II diabetic patients who have been diagnosed in five years under a study design of randomized control trial RCT to obtain evidence on clinical
We undertook a randomized single blind and sham group controlled study to evaluate the effect of EA with a frequency in 15 Hz and fixed intensity 10 mA on human Zusanli acupoint A total of 26 newly diagnostic type II diabetic patients are enrolled in this study They are randomly divided into 2 groups There are 13 patients in the experimental group EG with EA treatment and the other 13 patients are divided into control group CG with sham treatment The main outcome is the changes of laboratory parameters between before and 30 minutes after the test
