Methods:Ninety-five patients with type Ⅱ DM wererandomly divided into two groups. Fifty-three cases of SHJT group were given decoction and tablets of SAT orally for 4 -- 6 months. The efficacy was compared with that of 42 cases treated with Glipizide as the control.Before and after treatment standard steamed bread meal test was performed to measure the insulin peripheralsensitivity, insulin release to glucose and insulin sensitivity index. Results: (1 ) The total effective rates of improving insulin peripheral resistance and reducing blood sugar in SHJT group were 79. 2 % and 80. I %, whichwas equivalent to levels in the control group, but SAT recipe was more effective in relieving symptoms of Qideficiency and signs of blood stasis. (2) In SalT group, the insulin peripheral sensitivity and insulin sensitivityindex were significantly increased (P < 0. 05 and 0. of ), meanwhile the fasting blood sugar and blood sugar areawere reduced (P < 0. 05), but the change of insulin release to glucose was blunted. (3 )The lowering of bloodsugar in SHJT group was significantly negative correlated with the changing of degree of insulin peripheral sensitivity and index of insulin sensitivity (P < 0. 01 and 0. 05), but not with that of insulin area. Conclusion: Itsuggested that the treatment of SHJT recipe might decrease insulin peripheral resistance (partial reversal) bymeans of reducing hyperinsulinemia and improving insulin sensitivity.展开更多
