Interventions
- hypoglycemic treatment — DRUGThe diabetes management adheres to the "The 2025 Guidelines for Standards of Diabetes Care" issued by the American Diabetes Association (ADA).
- Tangshen'an Granules — DRUGTangshen'an Granules comprises a meticulously blended mix of Astragalus, Prepared Rehmannia Root, Dodder Seed, Kudzu Root, Millettia Speciosa Champ, Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Poria Cocos, and Polygala Tenuifolia. Tangshen'an Granules is administered at a dosage of 9g, dissolved in boiling water, and taken three times daily.
- Ginkgo Leaf Tablets — DRUGThe primary active ingredients of Ginkgo Leaf Tablets are ginkgo flavonoid glycosides and terpene lactones. The prescribed oral dosage is one tablet each time, administered three times a day.
- Mecobalamin Tablets — DRUGMecobalamin Tablets primarily contain mecobalamin, which is a coenzyme-active form of vitamin B12. The prescribed oral dosage is 0.5mg, administered three times a day.
- placebo — DRUGThe placebo contains 10% of the active ingredients in Tangshen'an Granules, formulated by controlling the concentration to mimic Tangshen'an Granules. The placebo is administered at a dosage of 9g, dissolved in boiling water, and taken three times daily.
Study Details
This study intends to take the critical pathological mechanism of diabetic neurovascular coupling injury (NCI) as the starting point and utilize multi-modal imaging (MMI) technology of the eyes and brain as a means to conduct in-depth, integrated, and interdisciplinary research with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome studies. The aim is to establish diagnostic and therapeutic standards for diabetic NCI, based on Eye-Brain Multimodal Imaging technology, providing objective and quantitative evidence for early disease diagnosis and therapeutic effect evaluation. Simultaneously, investigators will conduct multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trials to systematically investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Tangshen'an Granule in preventing and treating diabetic NCI. By obtaining high-quality evidence-based data on TCM, this study aims to enhance the level of prevention and treatment with TCM and clinical service capabilities, thereby providing new ideas and directions for research.
