Result: The baseline and post-assessment will be performed after 21 days for all the individuals; homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Descriptive statistics such as means and standard deviations will be calculated for each variable measured by the HOMA-IR. Additionally, inferential statistics such as t-tests will be performed to compare the HOMA-IR value between intervention and control groups. The level of significance will be set at p≤0.05. Any outliers or missing data points will be carefully addressed and handled accordingly.
Discussion: The SNP is a simple effective technique, 21 days of SNP might improve HOMA-IR, which may be recommended as an adjuvant therapy for T2DM patients along with conventional care.
