Objective:To explore the effects of different blood glucose management modes on self-management ability and glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) based on the WeChat platform.Methods:240 patients with T2DM were selected in Taiyuan Central Hospital from January to June 2020 for the study. They were randomly divided into general management groups, medical care management groups, peer management groups, and medical care and peer co-management groups using random number table, with 60 cases in each group. The general management group received routine outpatient follow-up. The medical care management group, peer management group, and medical care and peer management group established WeChat groups for management, respectively. Each group′s self-management ability and glucose and lipid metabolism indexes were compared before and after six months of intervention. t-test or nonparametric tests were used to compare. Results:After the intervention, self-management abilities such as diet, exercise, blood glucose monitoring, medication compliance, foot care, smoking and fasting blood glucose (FBG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c) were improved in the four groups (all P<0.05). The medical care management, peer management, and medical care and peer co-management groups were further improved than the general group (all P<0.05). Except for smoking, the above medical care and peer co-management group indicators were statistically different from those of the separate medical care management and peer management group (all P<0.05). Triacylglycerol (TG) of the four groups were improved compared with the previous [1.9(1.2, 2.7) compared with 2.3(1.6, 3.5)mmol/L, 1.4(1.2, 2.1) compared with 2.2(1.6, 3.2)mmol/L, 1.6(1.1, 2.0) compared with 2.2(1.4, 3.2)mmol/L, 1.5(1.0, 2.1) compared with 2.4(1.3, 3.1)mmol/L] (all P<0.05), and after the intervention, the total cholesterol (TC) of the four groups was also improved compared with that before the intervention [(4.7±0.9) compared with (5.1±1.2)mmol/L, (4.2±1.1) compared with (5.2±1.2)mmol/L, (4.3±1.1) compared with (5.4±1.3)mmol/L, (4.2±1.1) compared with (5.0±1.4)mmol/L] (all P<0.05), and TG and TC of the medical care management, peer management, and medical care and peer co-management groups were lower than those of the general group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Based on the WeChat platform, the management mode of medical care and peer co-management is conducive to T2DM patients′ better self-management and blood glucose control.
