PRKAA2 Genetic Polymorphisms and Its Susceptibility to Chinese Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetic Nephropathy

May 15, 2017 updated by: Zhi Li, People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University

The Influence of AMPK Subunit Alpha (PRKAA2) Genetic Polymorphisms With Susceptibility to Chinese Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetic Nephropathy

Metformin is a classical oral antidiabetic drug, often recommended to be the first-choice treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Based on the previous research on PRKAA2, STK11 and diabetes, this study aimed to investigate the distributive characteristic of PRKAA2 and STK11 polymorphisms and the potential influence of STK11polymorphisms on metformin efficacy among Chinese T2DM patients, discuss the association of PRKAA2 polymorphisms between T2DM patients and healthy subjects.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
the incidence of T2DM
Time Frame: Jan 2014-Dec 2015
people whose fasting plasma glucose ≥7.0 mmol/L and/or postprandial plasma glucose ≥11.1 mmol/L is diagnosed with T2DM.
Jan 2014-Dec 2015

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
metformin efficacy----the decrease level of HbA1c
Time Frame: Jan 2014-Dec 2015
patients whose HbA1c levels is decreased by more than 0.5 % from the baseline is deemed as the response group, while the decrease in HbA1c levels less than 0.5 % from the baseline is deemed as the non-response group.
