Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study intends to take the critical pathological mechanism of diabetic neurovascular coupling injury (NCI) as the starting point and utilize multi-modal imaging (MMI) technology of the eyes and brain as a means to conduct in-depth, integrated, and interdisciplinary research with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome studies. The aim is to establish diagnostic and therapeutic standards for diabetic NCI, based on Eye-Brain Multimodal Imaging technology, providing objective and quantitative evidence for early disease diagnosis and therapeutic effect evaluation. Simultaneously, investigators will conduct multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trials to systematically investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Tangshen'an Granule in preventing and treating diabetic NCI. By obtaining high-quality evidence-based data on TCM, this study aims to enhance the level of prevention and treatment with TCM and clinical service capabilities, thereby providing new ideas and directions for research.
