Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Glycemic control measured through assessing blood levels of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) immunoturbidimetrically at baseline, 3 months and 6 months.<br> 2. Insulin resistance measured using levels of HOMA-IR (the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance calculated by the formula: HOMA-IR=Fasting Blood Glucose (mmol/L)×Fasting Insulin (µIU/L)/22.5) at baseline, 3 months and 6 months<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<br> 1. Atherogenic risk index is determined through the total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio (Castelli risk I) at baseline, 3 months and 6 months<br> 2. Oxidative stress is measured in plasma through markers of:<br> 2.1. Lipid peroxidation measured in plasma and expressed as the Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) biomarker malondyadehide (MDA) at baseline, 3 months and 6 months<br> 2.2. Advanced oxidation protein product level (AOPP) measured in plasma spectrophotometrically, expressed as chloramine-T equivalents at baseline, 3 months and 6 months<br>
