Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (18)

  • Lifestyle pattern assessment

    Changes from baseline assessed through a self structured questionnaire consisted of open ended questions to assess the timing and type of food taken in meals, daily water intake and sleeping habits. Total 10 questions are included.

    12 weeks

  • Calculation of Body Mass Index

    Changes from baseline calculated by measuring height through metal measuring tape in meters and weight in kilograms through potable manual weighing scale. BMI with minimum value of 18.5 and maximum value of 24.5 Kilogram/ square meter. Below 18.5 is considered as underweight and above 24.9 is considered as obese

    12 weeks

  • Measurement of Systolic Blood Pressure

    Changes from baseline are assessed by using Mercury Sphygmomanometer with minimum value of 110 millimeter of Mercury and maximum value of 130 millimeter of Mercury. Below 110 millimeter of Mercury is considered as low systolic pressure and above 130 millimeter of Mercury is considered as high systolic pressure

    12 weeks

  • Measurement of Diastolic Blood Pressure

    Changes from baseline are assessed by using Mercury Sphygmomanometer with minimum value of 60 millimeter of Mercury and maximum value of 90 millimeter of Mercury. Below 60 millimeter of Mercury is considered as low diastolic pressure and above 90 millimeter of Mercury is considered as high diastolic pressure

    12 weeks

  • Assessment of Presence and Severity of Neuropathy by Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) that consists of a history questionnaire comprising of 15 questions related to symptoms of diabetic neuropathy with a score of \>7 is considered as abnormal and Physical examination that consists of inspection of foot for deformities, ulcers and callus formation, Ankle reflex and vibration sensation with a score of \>2.5 is considered abnormal

    12 weeks

  • Measurement of Peak Latency of Sensory Nerves of lower extremities (Sural and Peroneal)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Nerve Conduction Studies with a maximum value of 4.2 millisecond for sural nerve and 6.1 milliseconds for peroneal nerve are considered normal. Values below 4.2 and 6.1 milliseconds are considered abnormal.

    12 weeks

  • Measurement of Amplitude of Sensory Nerves of lower extremities (Sural and Peroneal)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Nerve Conduction Studies with a value of 2 microvolts for peroneal nerve and 6 microvolts for sural nerve are considered normal. Values below 2 and 6 microvolts were considered abnormal.

    12 weeks

  • Velocity of Sensory Nerves of lower extremities (Sural and Peroneal)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Nerve Conduction Studies with minimum limit of 44 meters /second and maximum limit of 64 meters/second. Value below 44m/sec and above 64m/sec are considered abnormal.

    12 weeks

  • Onset Latency of Motor Nerves (Peroneal and Tibial)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Nerve Conduction Studies with a value of 6.1 milliseconds for both nerves is considered normal. Value below 6.1 milliseconds is considered abnormal.

    12 weeks

  • Amplitude of Motor Nerves (Peroneal and Tibial)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Nerve Conduction Studies with a value of 2 millivolts for peroneal nerve and 3 millivolts for tibial nerve is considered normal. Value below 2 and 3 microvolts is considered abnormal.

    12 weeks

  • Velocity of Motor Nerves (Peroneal and Tibial)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Nerve Conduction Studies with a value of 41 m/sec is considered normal. Value below 41 m/sec is considered abnormal

    12 weeks

  • Assessment of Balance by Berg Balance Scale (BBS)

    Changes from baseline are assessed by Berg Balance Scale (BBS) with Low Fall Risk score of 41-56, Medium Fall Risk 21-40, High Fall Risk 0-20

    12 weeks

  • Fasting Blood Glucose

    Changes from baseline are measured by glucose oxidase strip method in milligram/deciliter using glucometer with a minimum value of 72 mg/dL and a maximum value of 99mg/dL is considered normal. Value below 72mg/dL is considered as hypoglycemia and value above 99 mg/dL is considered hyperglycemia.

    12 weeks

  • Serum HbA1c concentration

    Changes from baseline are measured by Ion Exchange Chromatography with a minimum value of 4% and maximum value of 5.9% is considered normal.

    12 weeks

  • Serum Triglycerides

    Changes from baseline are measured by Glycerol Phosphate Enzyme Based Method with a minimum value of 150 milligram /deciliter and a maximum value of 199 milligram/deciliter is considered normal. Value above 200 milligram/deciliter is considered as increased serum triglycerides

    12 week

  • Serum Total Cholesterol

    Changes from baseline are measured by Cholesterol Oxidase Enzyme Based Method with a minimum value of 125 and a maximum value of 200 milligram /deciliters considered as normal. Value above 200 milligram/deciliter is considered as hypercholesterolemia.

    12 weeks

  • Serum Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL)

    Changes from baseline are measured by Friedewald calculation with a minimum value of 100 and a maximum value of 120 milligram /deciliter is considered as normal.

    12 weeks

  • Serum High Density Lipoproteins (HDL)

    Changes from baseline are measured by Direct Enzymatic Immuno-inhibition with a maximum value of 40milligram/deciliter and higher is considered as normal. Value below 40 milligram/deciliter is considered as abnormal.
