Protocol summary

Study aim
To determine the supplementation effect of taurine on serum levels of pentosidine, soluble receptor of advanced glycation end products, methylglyoxal, metabolic parameters, oxidative, inflammatory indicators and nutritional status in patients with type 2 diabetes
Design
Randomized double-blind clinical trial with two arm parallel groups phase 3 trial
Settings and conduct
The trial will be conducted at outpatient cardiology clinic of Imam Reza center affiliated to Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Iran. All the patients will be screened by an expert endocrinologist for eligibility. Those willing to take part in the study will be carefully evaluated with reference to inclusion criteria. Then, they will be requested to sign an informed consent. A third party who is blind to the study will give the sequence extracted from allocation software. After an overnight fasting, blood will be collected and supplements will be provided to the participants. supplementation duration will be 8 weeks.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
6 patients with type 2 diabetes are included in the study. Patients with cardiovascular, renal, hepatic, hypothyroidism, and hyperthyroidism and those who have received supplementary foods in the last 3 months will not be included in the study.
Intervention groups
Intervention group: will consume 3 milliliters of Turin capsules daily. (placebo) control group: Take 3 capsules containing maltodextrin daily
Main outcome variables
Serum levels of pentosidine, soluble receptor of advanced glycation end products, methylglyoxal, metabolic parameters, oxidative, inflammatory indicators and nutritional status

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
the eligible participants will be randomly allocated to intervention and placebo groups using a software generated random permuted blocks. The generated random sequence will be kept in a protected location and administered by an independent third party who is blind to the trial throughout the study.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
In this double-blind study, no patient and investigator will be aware of the treatment assignments for the duration of the study. For blinding the trial, the taurine capsules and placebo, will be identical in appearance, packaging, and labeling. All capsules will be packed and encoded by the company (karenCompany).
