Methods 133 cases of patients suffered with the type Ⅱ diabetes were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group ( treated with sugar conversion paste) and blank control group ( not treated with the paste, but used with a blank patch). The changes on the clinical symptoms of diabete, fasting and postprandial blood glucose after 2 hours later a meal, glycosylated hemoglobin before and after the test, and etc. , were observed for both groups. Results The symptom score, fasting and postprandial blood glucose at 2 hours later of the treatment group decreased significantly and the rate of decline is greater than that of the blank control group. There was not a statistically significant difference of glycosylated hemoglobin before and after the test between the two groups. The total effective rate of the treatment group was 72.13%, higher than that of the blank control group, i.e. , 54.7%, which was a statistically significant difference. Conclusions The means of applying " Sheng Shi Lin Infrared Health Conservation Series Ointment First Type" in the adjuvant treatment of the type Ⅱ diabetes is unique for its acupoint application and out-treatment route, simple for its use, and has a good compliance.
