Composition and Method for Treating Metabolic Disorders

Bromocriptine citrate administered to a vertebrate, animal or human, can be used for any purpose including, e.g., the long-term modification and regulation of metabolic disorders, including prediabetes, obesity, insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and / or, e.g., the treatment of other medical disorder(s) including immune or endocrine disorders or diseases. Bromocriptine citrate is administered over a limited or extended period at a time of day dependent on re-establishing the normal circadian rhythm of central dopaminergic activity of healthy members of a similar species and sex. Insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia, T2DM, prediabetes, MS or all, can be controlled in humans on a long term basis by such treatment inasmuch as the daily administration of bromocriptine citrate resets neuronal activity timing in the neural centers of the brain to produce long term effects.

A type 2 prediabetes diagnosis and treatment method based on traditional Chinese medicine state science, electronic equipment and computer readable storage medium

PendingCN122369868APrediabetesData mining
This invention relates to the intersection of traditional Chinese medicine modernization and intelligent healthcare, specifically falling under the category of pre-chronic disease screening and health management technology. More particularly, it relates to a method for diagnosing and treating pre-type 2 diabetes based on traditional Chinese medicine state theory, along with electronic devices and computer-readable storage media, constructing a complete, human-machine collaborative closed-loop diagnostic and treatment process. This method achieves objective data collection through portable devices using the four diagnostic methods of traditional Chinese medicine, utilizes a multi-algorithm fusion model to accurately identify the "potential pathological state" of pre-T2DM, and intelligently generates personalized intervention prescriptions based on this. Finally, it quantifies the effects and dynamically optimizes the treatment plan through data re-collection and model re-evaluation. This solves the problems of strong subjectivity in traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment, disconnection from modern technology, and lack of quantitative feedback and continuous adjustment after intervention. It achieves full-cycle, intelligent, and personalized health management for pre-T2DM, from identification and intervention to follow-up management.

PendingCN122638191AElevated glucose toleranceRandomized controlled trial
This invention relates to the field of clinical evaluation technology, specifically a stratified randomized controlled trial method for evaluating the intervention of traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas in prediabetes. The method includes the following steps: constructing stratified codes for subjects based on fasting blood glucose differences; constructing a blood glucose change difference sequence by combining the differences before and after intervention; using a regression function to obtain characteristic inflection points and establish a dose interval mapping relationship; obtaining the peak blood glucose time based on glucose tolerance tests and segmenting the time axis; calculating the slope characteristic parameters of each segment; and classifying and judging the comprehensive parameters and mapping relationship to construct a efficacy grading evaluation index. In this invention, by comparing multiple fasting blood glucose differences with stable parameters to extract fluctuation characteristics, a stratified coding mechanism is constructed to avoid the risk of stratification mismatch in a single test. The intervention difference is extracted and used to introduce piecewise linear regression to calculate the slope and capture the response characteristic inflection points. Combined with standard comparison, the degree of recovery of the body is determined, and the curve shape is transformed into a multi-dimensional efficacy grading index, effectively improving clinical precision.
