On the basis of routine intervention, patients in the control group received metformin alone for 3 months' treatment, while patients in the observation group received both metformin and empagliflozin for 3 months. The clinical efficacy, blood glucose indicators [fasting blood glucose (FPG), 2 h postprandial blood glucose (2hPG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c)], islet function indicators [fasting insulin (FINS), 2 h postprandial insulin ( PINS), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), pancreatic islet β cell function index (HOMA-β)],IL-17A, IL-22, IFN-γ levels, blood lipids [low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triacylglycerol (TG), total cholesterol (TC)], blood pressure [diastolic blood pressure (DBP), systolic blood pressure (SBP)], BMI before and after treatment, and the incidence of adverse reactions were calculated and compared between the two groups. 【Results】 The total effective rate of the observation group (94.44%) was higher than that of the control group (81.48%) (P<0.05). The levels of FPG, 2hPG, HbA1c HOMA-IR, IL-17A, IL-22, IFN-γ, LDL-C, TG, TC, DBP, and SBP in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after 1 month and 3 months of treatment (P<0.05); While after 1 month and 3 months of treatment, the levels of HOMA-β, FINS, HDL-C and PINS in the observation y group were higher than those in the control group, the differences were all statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the observation group (9.26%) and the control group (5.56%) (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 Metformin combined with empagliflozin in the treatment of elderly type 2 diabetes can effectively reduce blood glucose, improve islet function, regulate blood lipids and blood pressure, reduce BMI, improve therapeutic effects, and down-regulate serum IL-17A, IL-22. It is worthy of clinical application.
