Abstract

Objective: To explore the influence of the education of lifestyle in the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with microalbuminuria as a part of the enhanced multifactorial intervention.

Methods: This study will be conducted from May 2021 to August 2022 at Ningbo No.6 hospital. The experiment was granted through the Research Ethics Committee of Ningbo No.6 hospital (539D035). The patients will be included if they are between 18 and 65 years old and are diagnosed with T2DM with microalbuminuria and the patients who have signed the written informed consent. While the patients will be excluded if they have serious physical comorbidities and patients who are unwilling to offer the informed consent to take part in this experiment. We measure the clinical examination (fasting blood-glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin and routine urine test) timely. Detail of daily dietary intake and lifestyle factors are also recorded.

Results: Table 1 reflects the comparison of the biochemical and clinical variables and the lifestyle factors.

Conclusion: Lifestyle education is effective in facilitating the control of T2DM and reducing microalbuminuria.

Trial registration number: researchregistry6348.
