The results of human clinical trials investigating the effects of green tea on glycemic control are inconsistent.
We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs that examined the effects of green tea supplementation on glycemic control. A literature search in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for RCTs that investigated the effect of green tea consumption on glycemic control was performed up to February 2020. A random-effects model was used to estimate weighted mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Twenty-seven trials involving 2194 subjects were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled results showed that green tea significantly lowered fasting blood glucose by - 1.44 mg/dL (95%CI:-2.26, - 0.62 mg/dL; < 0.001) with no obvious heterogeneity ( = 7.7%). However, green tea consumption did not significantly affect fasting insulin and HbA1c values. The mean differences were - 0.46μIU/mL (95% CI: - 1.10, 0.17IU/mL; = 0.21) for fasting insulin and - 0.06%; (95% CI: - 0.12, 0.01%; = 0.07) for HbA concentrations. Heterogeneity was significant in fasting insulin ( = 46.8%) and mild in HbA ( = 1.7%).
In short-term trials, green tea supplementation significantly reduced fasting glucose, but had no significant effect on fasting insulin and HbA. Long-term trials assessing the effects of green tea supplementation on glycemic control are needed.
关于绿茶对血糖控制影响的人体临床试验结果并不一致。
我们对研究补充绿茶对血糖控制影响的随机对照试验(RCT)进行了系统评价和荟萃分析。截至2020年2月,在PubMed、Embase和Cochrane图书馆数据库中检索了研究饮用绿茶对血糖控制影响的RCT。采用随机效应模型估计加权平均差(WMD)及其95%置信区间(CI)。
荟萃分析纳入了27项试验,涉及2194名受试者。汇总结果显示,绿茶可使空腹血糖显著降低-1.44mg/dL(95%CI:-2.26,-0.62mg/dL;P<0.001),且无明显异质性(I²=7.7%)。然而,饮用绿茶对空腹胰岛素和糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)值没有显著影响。空腹胰岛素的平均差值为-0.46μIU/mL(95%CI:-1.10,0.17IU/mL;P=0.21),HbA1c浓度的平均差值为-0.06%(95%CI:-0.12,0.01%;P=0.07)。空腹胰岛素的异质性显著(I²=46.8%),HbA1c的异质性较轻(I²=1.7%)。
在短期试验中,补充绿茶可显著降低空腹血糖,但对空腹胰岛素和HbA1c没有显著影响。需要进行长期试验来评估补充绿茶对血糖控制的影响。
