简要总结
This multicenter, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of berberine on preventing cardiovascular disease and diabetes mellitus among individuals with high cardiometabolic risk in China.
详细描述
The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of berberine treatment for individuals with high cardiometabolic risk. Potential eligible patients will be recruited from about 100 medical centers in China. After a 4-to-6-week run-in period with berberine, all the eligible participants will be randomized (1:1) to berberine 500mg twice a day plus lifestyle intervention (Arm A) or placebo plus lifestyle intervention (Arm B). The participants will be followed up at month 3 and month 6, and once every 3 months thereafter, and be followed up for 3 years.
