Multifactorial Intervention on Diabetes (MIDiab Study)

Effects of Multifactorial Intervention on Type 2 Diabetes - A Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, Parallel Controlled, Community Trial.

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has been increasing in recent decades in China, and vascular complication is the major burden in patients with type 2 diabetes. Previous studies demonstrated that only glycemic control was not effective enough to prevent or improve diabetic vascular complications, but guidelines from the Chinese Diabetes Society and other national guidelines recommend an integrated multifactorial treatment approach. In this study, we aim to evaluate the effect on diabetic vascular complications of a multifactorial intervention comprising behavior modification, polypharmacological therapy and periodical monitoring in patients with type 2 diabetes.
