Brief Summary:

Detailed Description:
In newly-diagnosed early diabetes patients, a randomized comparative study will be conducted to compare the suppressive effect of the following two kinds of interventions on the worsening/progression to definite diabetes which has a harmful hyperglycemia i.e. an increased risk of microangiopathy: standard education for the improvement of lifestyle in accordance with the "Guidelines for the Treatment of Diabetes Mellitus in Japan" of the Japan Diabetes Society (JDS) and standard lifestyle guidance combined with pharmacological intervention using the lowest possible dose of commercially available oral hypoglycemic agents (one of acarbose, metformin, or gliclazide) in Japan.
