简要总结
Type 2 diabetic patients who fast during Ramadan experience swings in glycaemic control between hypoglycaemic troughs and hyperglycaemic spikes. Hence, the dual challenge in fasting diabetics is to identify which treatment modality leads to the most stable blood glucose levels during a fast and how to smooth out these excursions and reduce risks of fast to a minimum.
详细描述
Study Objectives:
-
To compare changes in clinical and metabolic parameters from baseline to the end of four weeks fasting in Ramadan between four treatment arms:
-
diet and lifestyle measures alone.
-
metformin monotherapy.
-
combination therapy with metformin + sulfonylurea.
-
combination therapy with metformin + sitagliptin.
-
To compare the 24 hour CGMS profile during Ramadan fasting in type 2 diabetic patients before and after addition of acarbose to these pre-existing sub-maximal hypoglycaemic regimens.

Diet and lifestyle measures alone.
Type 2 diabetic subjects on lifestyle counselling as part of diabetes treatment would continue as such during Ramadan. They would receive acarbose on one day to be followed by CGMS for a 24 hour period
