主要结局
The effect of Laghter yoga on blood glucose value
时间窗: 1 month
Blood glucose follow-up charts were given to the patients and they were informed about the measurement times. In this study, the blood glucose measurement of the patients was before breakfast and after the sessions (after breakfast in the control group). Postprandial blood glucose (2-hour postprandial) was performed twice. Measurements were measured from fingertips by enzyme colorimetric assay using a blood glucose meter by the individuals themselves. Patients were asked to measure and record their blood glucose level before breakfast. The yoga session was started 30 minutes after breakfast, and after the session was completed, they were asked to measure and record their blood glucose level again at 120 minutes after breakfast.
