  Purpose

Rocca et al. reported first that the secretion of incretins, particular GLP-1 in rat is regulated by the enteric nervous system, the afferent and efferent vagus nerves [1]. Further, Kazakos et al. [2] reported that autonomic nerve disturbance (AND) in patients with T2DM impaired the incretin effect owing to decreased GLP-1 secretion. However, Toft-Nielsen et al. [3] reported that the decreased GLP-1 responses in the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are unlikely to be related to the AND and, thus, did not support the results of Rocca et al. and Kazakos et al. Recently, Yabe at al. [4] also observed the same observations in Japanese patients with T2DM. Meanwhile, Jin et al. reported that administration of DPP-IV inhibitor recovered the disturbance of diabetic nerve dysfunction in rat [5]. However, it is unknown whether the administration of DPP-IV inhibitor effects on the AND in human, although many studies are performed to investigate the effect of the DPP-IV inhibitors on glycemic control.

Accordingly, it is significant to reinvestigate an effect of DPP-IV inhibitor on glycemic control and autonomic neuropathy in diabetic patients.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Glycemic control [ Time Frame: For one year after treatment wih DPP-IV inhibitor ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    As marker of HbA1c


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • autonomic nerve disturbance [ Time Frame: Before and one year after treatment with DPP-IV inhibitor ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    Before and after measurment with R-R CV in ECG at rest and respiratory deeping


Estimated Enrollment: 60
Study Start Date: September 2011
Estimated Study Completion Date: January 2013
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
DPP-IV inhibitor Drug: Sitagliptin, 50 mg once per day per os
Before and one year after treatment with DPP-IV inhibitor in diabetic patients with AND.
Other Name: Nothing

Detailed Description:

Autonomic nerve disturbance (AND) is estimated to use coefficient of variance of electrocardiographic beat-to-beat intervals (C.V. R-R). Maximal change of the C,V. R-R with from usual breathing to deep breathing at the resting was used for the evaluation of AND. Less than 2.0 % of the maximal value is estimated to have a positive to AND.

Glycemic control is estimated to measure change of HbA1c value once three months per year.

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   20 Years to 95 Years
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Sampling Method:   Probability Sample
