Detailed Description: Introduction

DM2 is a chronic disease considered a public health problem scenario in which each year increases the number of people affected has a high prevalence in the investigators country 94 ENSANUT 2016 which causes a high morbidity and mortality Conceptually it is defined as a heterogeneous syndrome originated by the genetic-environmental interaction and characterized by a chronic hyperglycemia as a consequence of a deficiency in the secretion or action of insulin which triggers acute complications ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar coma microvascular chronicles retinopathies and neuropathies and macrovascular coronary heart disease cerebrovascular and peripheral vascular diseases

Growth hormones such as IGF1 with important biological effects on metabolism have been shown to promote the absorption of glucose in certain peripheral tissues It has been shown that IGF1 binds to insulin receptors to stimulate the transport of glucose in fat and muscle inhibiting the production of hepatic glucose by lowering blood glucose while at the same time suppressing insulin secretion increasing sensitivity to insulin and improves the lipid profile

For the treatment of DM2 the use of botanical products can improve glucose metabolism by hypoglycemic effect as well as that of lipids and antioxidant aqueous extracts of cinnamomum cassia have been shown to enhance glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis in vitro and increase phosphorylation of the insulin receptor with possible effect on IGF1 receptor

The emergence of other therapies can generate new treatments for patients with DM2 which in turn reduce costs and help improve the quality of life

Justification

The prevalence of diabetes and metabolic decontrol is high both in Mexico and in the world and conditions the development of long-term complications The concentrations of IGF1 in blood are diminished in the patients with diabetes mellitus and by its effects similar to the insulin in the metabolism of the glucose when normalizing this can produce control of the diabetes

In vitro studies have shown that cinnamomum cassia increases glucose uptake glycogen synthesis and insulin receptor phosphorylation In humans it has been confirmed that it increases the levels of glucagon-like peptide 1 GLP-1 favors the activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor PPAR-γ and PPAR-α promoting insulin sensitivity as well as inhibits hepatic 3-hydroxy 3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase to reduce the synthesis of cholesterol and has a vasodilator effect by activity on the enzyme nitric oxide synthase

Cinnamomum cassia also has a proposal on the signaling of IGF1 receptors GRB2 which activated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase PI3K control the proliferation of IGF1 this IGF1 having reduced levels in patients with diabetes becomes a therapeutic target for improved control metabolic However the direct application of IGF1 has as main limitation important collateral effects which has inhibited its use so it is intended to evaluate the stimulatory effect on IGF1 with cinnamomum cassia considering phytopharmaceutical of good quality and low side effects

General hypothesis

Cinnamomum cassia acts as an enhancer of the insulin response of IGF1 and metabolic control in patients with DM2 without glycemic control treated with metformin at low doses

Goals

GENERAL To evaluate the effect of cinnamomum cassia as an enhancer of the insulin response of IGF1 on metabolic control in patients with DM2 without glycemic control treated with metformin

SPECIFIC

To analyze the effect before and after daily oral administration of 850mg of metformin plus 3g of cinnamomum cassia compared to placebo for 90 days on

Levels of IGF1
Fasting glucose value HbA1c triglycerides total cholesterol high density cholesterol low density cholesterol very low density cholesterol systolic and diastolic blood pressure body weight

SECONDARY

Insulin sensitivity body mass index BMI waist circumference body fat
Determine the pharmacological attachment and tolerability of CC and placebo

Working universe

Patients with DM2 men and women with a recent diagnosis treated with 850 mg of metformin daily without glycemic control Residents of Guadalajara and metropolitan area and that for the development of the protocol they will go to the facilities of the National Medical Center of the West Specialty Hospital

Sample size

It was calculated according to the following formula for clinical trials n 2 Zα - Z1-β δ d 2 Two working groups will be formed at random which will be integrated as follows 1 a group of 14 patients 7 women and 7 men with DM2 without adequate control treated with metformin 850 mg daily who will receive 1 g of cinnamomum cassia orally every 8 hours for 90 days and 2 a group of 14 patients 7 women and 7 men with DM2 without adequate control treated with metformin 850 mg daily who will receive 1 g of placebo calcined magnesia orally every 8 hours for 90 days In this way the total number of participants required for the study will be at least 28 volunteers

Variables

Independent variable

Pharmacological intervention

Intervention group Administration of metformin 850mg daily and cinnamomum cassia 1g orally before each meal for 90 days
Control group Administration of metformin 850mg daily and of placebo approved 1g calcined magnesia orally before each meal for 90 days

Dependent variables

Clinical procedures

All the anthropometric and vital signs determinations as well as the procedures for the interrogation physical examination and integration of the corresponding clinical history will be carried out by means of universally accepted methods and in accordance with the General Health Law in its Regulation on the Provision of Medical Care Services

The history and clinical exploration will be performed at the first visit of the participant in order to establish eligibility to continue in the study All positive and clinically interesting data will be recorded in the data collection notebook CRD

Paraclinical procedures

During each of the scheduled visits to the research unit it will be necessary to determine a clinical chemistry study for this purpose it will be essential to collect blood samples and their subsequent processing For the collection of all blood samples in each of the visits to the research center all participants will be cited at 800 am and will be an indispensable requirement in each of the collections of samples that come in a fasting state of 12 hours

Once the blood sample has been taken the patient will be given general guidance and recommendations on diet and exercise for a healthy lifestyle From the 3rd visit the attachment to the treatment will be evaluated this determination will be made with the following formula considering as acceptable a value 80

Compliance rate Total number of capsules you ingested Total number of capsules you should have ingested Result multiplied by 100
