The Impact of Laser Acupuncture on Type 2 Diabetes (LA/ABSI)
The Impact of Laser Acupuncture on Body Shape Index in Type 2 Diabetes
Laser Acupuncture for Type 2 Diabetes and Body Shape The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if laser acupuncture can help improve body shape and overall health in women with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D).
The main question it aims to answer is:
Does laser acupuncture lead to a better A Body Shape Index (ABSI) score in women with T2D compared to a sham (inactive) laser treatment?
The A Body Shape Index (ABSI) is a way to measure body shape that is linked to health risks like diabetes complications and early death. A lower ABSI score is better.
The Laser Acupuncture Group will be compared to a Sham Laser Acupuncture Group to see if the active laser treatment is more effective.
Participants will:
Be women aged 40 to 50 with uncontrolled T2D (HbA1c ≥7.5%) and a BMI between 30 and 35 (obesity class I).
Be randomly placed into one of two groups (Laser Acupuncture or Sham Laser Acupuncture).
Both groups will adhere to a low-glycemic-index (LGI) diet designed and prescribed by the Nutrition Clinic at the National Institute of Diabetes and Endocrinology (NIDE).
Receive treatment twice a week for 12 weeks (24 sessions total). The laser or sham laser will be applied to specific points on the body (acupoints) for 24 seconds each.
Complete evaluations before and after the 12-week program, which will include:
Measuring their ABSI (calculated using waist size, height, and weight).
Measuring their HbA1c (a blood test that shows average blood sugar over the past 3 months).
Filling out questionnaires about sleep quality and diabetes-related emotional distress.

Detailní popis
This study is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial designed to test the effectiveness of Laser Acupuncture (LA) as an add-on treatment for women with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The core aim is to see if LA can significantly improve the A Body Shape Index (ABSI), a crucial measure that predicts diabetes-related health risks and overall mortality.
Significance The study addresses the need for non-pharmacological, non-invasive therapies for T2DM management. A positive finding would support integrating LA into standard care to potentially reduce complication and mortality risks by improving metabolic health indicators like ABSI.
Treatment Protocol
The active laser acupuncture uses a non-invasive, painless ,wavelength of 850 nm at a power density of 200 mW.
The treatment involves applying the laser (or sham) to 9 specific acupoints, with the goal of improving insulin resistance, decreasing Body Shape Index and lowering blood glucose.

A Body Shape Index (ABSI)
Časové okno: 3 Months (Measured at baseline and after 12 weeks of treatment)
