Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
HbA1c Levels in Blood
Blood is taken from each subject and HbA1c levels were measured at 12 months by Queensland Health Pathology Scientific Services (QHPSS). This test measures the glycated hemoglobin in the blood.
High Sensitivity CRP (C-Reactive Protein)
CRP is a protein found in the blood and is a marker for inflammation in the body. Inflammation plays a role in the initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease.
C-Peptide
C-Peptide levels in blood indicate whether or not a person is producing insulin
IL-6 (Interleukin - 6)
Levels of Interleukin - 6 (GCF IL-6) found in blood drawn from subjects. Indication of systemic inflammation in the body.(weight in picograms)
TNF-α (Tumor Necrosis Factor - Alpha)
Blood drawn from subjects to determine the level of TNF-α (Tumor necrosis factor - alpha). TNF-α is a pleiotropic inflammatory cytokine involved in systemic inflammation.
