Effects of metacognition-based mindfulness based cognitive therapy on anxiety and blood glucose in prediabetic patients

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy(MBCT) based on metacognition on anxiety, meta-emotional ability and blood glucose of prediabetic patients.

MethodsA total of 126 cases of prediabetic patients with psychological needs diagnosed in the endocrine clinic were selected and randomly divided into control group and study group, with 63 cases in each group.The control group was given the traditional education model.On the basis of this, the study group was given metacognition-based MBCT.The effects of self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), trait meta-mood scale(TMMS), disease knowledge and behavior scores, and blood glucose control were compared before and after intervention 3 months.

ResultsBefore intervention, there was no significant difference in related indexes between the two groups(P>0.05).After intervention, SAS, TMMS, disease knowledge and behavior scores, and blood glucose control levels of the study group were all better than those of the control group(P < 0.01).

ConclusionsMetacognition-based MBCT can improve patients' metacognitive ability, effectively relieve anxiety, improve disease knowledge score, and effectively control blood glucose level.
