Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Changes in HbA1c level (target range <7.0%)<br>2. Changes in low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration (target range <2.6mmol/L)<br>3. Changes in systolic and diastolic pressure (target range <130/80mmHg) <br>4. Change in urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) (target range <30mg/d)<br>5. The HbA1c level was measured by a high-performance liquid chromatographic assay(Primus), with a normal reference range of 4.0% to 6.0%<br>6. Blood pressure was measured twice with a mercury sphygmomanometer in the right arm with the patient in a sitting position after a rest of 5 minutes <br>7. Serum LDL-C and urinary albumin concetration were determined by standard biochemical methods using a chemistry analyzer (Beckman Coulter Synchron clinical system DXC-800)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Measurement of: <br>1.1. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG)<br>1.2. Total cholesterol (TC)<br>1.3. Triglyceride (TG)<br>1.4. High density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C)<br>1.5. Depression screening by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D)<br>2. Plasma glucose, TC, TG and HDL-C were determined by standard biochemical methods using a chemistry analyzer(Beckman Coulter Synchron clinical system DXC-800). <br>3. Depressive symptoms were evaluated by the CES-D scale which contains 20 items (range 0-60) where a score >16 is considered depressed
