Background Music therapy, as an emerging treatment, has a gradually evolving role in the rehabilitation of chronic diseases and is gaining increasing attention. But there are few studies on the effects of music therapy on diabetes rehabilitation. Objective To observe the effects of music assisted anagliptin on glycolipid metabolism in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods Sixty five type 2 diabetic patients with poor glycemic control on oral agents who visited the outpatient clinic of Department of Endocrinology, Boai Hospital, China Rehabilitation Research Center, from October 2019 to February 2021 were selected. Patients were divided into group A (n=35) and group B (n=30) by random numbers, and patients in both groups maintained their original diet and exercise habits. Group A was treated with anagliptin tablets in combination with the original treatment (drug type, dose unchanged) , while group B was given music adjuvant therapy on the basis of group A. Patients in both groups were treated continuously for 12 weeks. Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) , glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) , total cholesterol (TC) , triacylglycerol (TG) , high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) , uric acid (UA) , 2 h postprandial plasma glucose (2 hPG) , hypersensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) , free fatty acids (FFA) , insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) , β Cell function secretion index (HOMA-β) before and 12 weeks after treatment were compared between the two groups. The patients were observed for the occurrence of adverse reactions during the treatment. Results One patient was eliminated from the trial because of adverse drug reactions during the course of the trial in both groups, and 34 and 29 patients finally completed the trial in groups A and B, respectively. Patients in group B had lower 2 hPG than those in group A after 12 weeks of treatment (P<0.05) . FPG, HbA1c, and 2 hPG were lower in both groups after 12 weeks of treatment whereas HOMA-β were higher after treatment (P<0.05) ; LDL-C and TC of group B patients after 12 weeks of treatment were lower (P<0.05) . No hypoglycemic events occurred in either group. Conclusion Music-assisted alagliptin can reduce postprandial blood glucose and improve lipid profile of type 2 diabetes patients more than that without music-assisted alagliptin. It also needs to be emphasized that the effects of music therapy must be based on diet control, proper exercise, and rational medication.
