PRKAA2 Genetic Polymorphisms and Its Susceptibility to Chinese Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetic Nephropathy
- Registration Number
- NCT03155087
- Lead Sponsor
- People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University
- Brief Summary
Metformin is a classical oral antidiabetic drug, often recommended to be the first-choice treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Based on the previous research on PRKAA2, STK11 and diabetes, this study aimed to investigate the distributive characteristic of PRKAA2 and STK11 polymorphisms and the potential influence of STK11polymorphisms on metformin efficacy among Chinese T2DM patients, discuss the association of PRKAA2 polymorphisms between T2DM patients and healthy subjects.

Group Intervention Description T2DM patients Metformin Metformin dosages ranged from 500 to 2000 mg per day
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method the incidence of T2DM Jan 2014-Dec 2015 people whose fasting plasma glucose ≥7.0 mmol/L and/or postprandial plasma glucose ≥11.1 mmol/L is diagnosed with T2DM.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method metformin efficacy----the decrease level of HbA1c Jan 2014-Dec 2015 patients whose HbA1c levels is decreased by more than 0.5 % from the baseline is deemed as the response group, while the decrease in HbA1c levels less than 0.5 % from the baseline is deemed as the non-response group.
