Abstract

The Chinese Medical Doctor Association has initiated metabolic management center (MMC) program for 6 years since 2016 nationwide. It is worth investigating the level of control metabolic outcomes in patients with type2 diabetes (T2DM) after MMC model in Yan'an, northwest China. Patients with T2DM was admitted to MMC in Yan'an University Affiliated Hospital from November 2018 to July 2021. They were asked to revisit hospital every 3 months. Blood glucose, blood pressure and blood lipids at baseline were compared to its counterparts after 1 year MMC management. Glycosylated hemoglobin and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level in T2DM patients after 1 year management were lower than their baseline level (glycosylated hemoglobin 7.74 ± 1.94% vs 8.63 ± 2.26%, P < .001; LDL-C 1.81 ± 0.73mmol/L vs 2.18 ± 1.49mmol/L, P < .001). Mean HOMA-β increased after management (65.89 ± 90.81% vs 128.38 ± 293.93%, P < .05). After 1 year of management, patients in high school or above group achieved higher control rate of body mass index than those in middle school or below group (71.82% vs 28.18%, P = .043). high density lipoprotein cholesterol control rate was higher in high income group (42.86% vs 34.97%, 16.28%, P = .012), while LDL-C control rate was higher in low-income group (97.67% vs 78.57%, 84.51%, P = .018). fasting plasma glucose control rate in new diagnosis group was higher than that of the middle and long course groups (71.43% vs 52.38%, 42.44%, P = .002). The comprehensive control rate increased from 9.83% at baseline to 26.15% after 1 year MMC management. The metabolic outcomes and their control rate in T2DM patients were improved after 1 year MMC management. It indicated that patients may achieve more benefits with MMC management.
