About the research
This study aims to determine whether Proliverenol supplementation can improve liver fat levels and blood sugar control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Participants will be divided into two groups: one group will receive Proliverenol with standar therapy of DM, and the other only receive standar therapy of DM. The study will last for 12 weeks, and participants will undergo blood tests and liver examinations."
Read the full description
Type 2 diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a chronic and progressive disease characterized by elevated blood sugar levels above normal. Several key mechanisms contribute to this condition, including increased oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and the death of pancreatic β cells. This condition is exacerbated by excessive weight gain.
Proliverenol, derived from the mahkota dewa fruit (P. macrocarpa), contain an antioxidant that reduces inflammation and prevents pancreatic β-cell death. As a result, it can reduce insulin resistance in muscle and liver tissues and improve insulin secretion.
Expected results: A reduction in insulin resistance, an increase in insulin secretion, and improvements in other metabolic parameters after 3 months of proliverenol administration.

Proliverenol Supplementation 1000 mg with standard Therapy of DM
Participants in this arm will receive Proliverenol supplementation at a dose of 1000 mg twice daily for duration 12 weeks and standard theraphy (rapid-acting insulin three times a day, basal insulin once a day, or metformin 500 mg three times a day, or sitagliptin 50 mg twice a day, or gliclazide MR 60 mg once a day)

What researchers are measuring
Outcome measures describe what is being studied. They are not proof that a treatment works.
Primary measures
Change in the Visceral Adiposity Index (VAI) from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
VAI is calculated using a formula that includes triglycerides, HDL, and body mass index.
Change in HOMA-IR from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
HOMA-IR is calculated from fasting glucose and fasting insulin levels. A higher score indicates worse insulin resistance.
Change in C-Peptide from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
C-peptide is measured through laboratory test results
Change in Controlled Attenuation Parameter (CAP) from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
CAP is measured using transient elastography to assess hepatic steatosis.
Secondary measures
Changes in HbA1c levels from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
HbA1c is measured through laboratory test results
Changes in fasting glucose levels from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
Fasting glucose is measured through laboratory test results
Changes in 2-hour postprandial glucose levels from baseline to week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
2-hour postprandial glucose is measured through laboratory test results
