Adjunctive vitamin A and D for the glycaemic control in patients with concurrent type 2 diabetes and tuberculosis: a randomised controlled trial

Abstract: The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of vitamin A, D and their interaction on the glycemic control in patients with both diabetes and tuberculosis. Tuberculosis infection and its treatment induce hyperglycemia and complicate the glycemic control in patients with diabetes. A randomized controlled trial with a 2×2 factorial design was conducted in a tuberculosis-specialized hospital in Qingdao, China. A total of 279 patients who have both diabetes and tuberculosis were included in this analy… Show more

“…Vitamins are generally classified as fat-soluble and water-soluble. Various studies have systematically evaluated the effects of fat-soluble vitamins in lowering the risk of T2DM and improving glycemic indices, such as vitamin A ( 3 ), vitamin D ( 4 7 ), vitamin E ( 8 ) and vitamin K ( 9 ). Specifically, vitamin D supplementation has been proved to significantly ameliorate status of fasting blood glucose (FBG), homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ( 10 ).…”
