Anti-inflammatory Dietary Intervention in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Sponsor: Anhui Medical University
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether an evidence-based anti-inflammatory dietary intervention can reduce inflammation and improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). T2DM is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by elevated blood glucose levels and is closely associated with chronic low-grade inflammation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does an anti-inflammatory dietary intervention reduce levels of hs-CRP, a key marker of chronic inflammation, in patients with T2DM? Does the intervention improve dietary inflammatory index (DII) scores and glycemic outcomes, including fasting blood glucose and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose? Researchers will compare an anti-inflammatory diet intervention group to a standard diabetes dietary control group to determine whether the anti-inflammatory dietary pattern provides additional benefits beyond routine dietary management. Participants will: Be randomly assigned to either the anti-inflammatory diet group or the standard diabetes diet group Receive dietary guidance based on structured anti-inflammatory food recommendations or routine diabetes dietary advice Complete dietary assessments, including 24-hour dietary recalls to calculate dietary inflammatory index (DII) Provide blood samples to measure hs-CRP, fasting blood glucose, and 2-hour postprandial blood glucose at baseline and after 4 weeks Complete questionnaires on dietary adherence and quality of life Participate in a 4-week intervention period with follow-up assessments
