At end 6 months follow-up, [glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), serum triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, duration patient’s visit net income] for NADC compared those also derived from before NADC. Results:  Under NADC, HbA1c levels more significant fall (p   1.69 mmol/l (150 mg/dl) LDL cholesterol > 2.58 mmol/l (100 mg/dl) (both p < 0.05), time one decreased by an average 9.3 min (p = 0.000) while income increased 21.25%.
