Why the study?

Does glycemic control improve platelet parameters in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients?

Structured PICO

Does glycemic control improve platelet parameters in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients?

Population

90 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients and 90 healthy people (total n=180)

Intervention

Glycemic control treatment

Comparator

Healthy controls (for baseline comparison) and pre-treatment baseline (for treatment effect)

Outcome

Platelet parameters (PLT, MPV, PDW) and their correlation with glycemic control markers (FBG, HbA1c)surrogate

Glycemic control in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes reduces enhanced platelet activity, which may help prevent diabetic cardiovascular complications.

Glycemic control was associated with reduced platelet indices in new T2DM; hypothesis-generating for CV risk reduction and needs RCT confirmation.

Tang et al. (2011) studied this question.
