List of animal groups with different treatments.

GroupsStatus and treatment

NCHealthy, treated with 0.5% CMC-Na solution in equivalent volume to the test treatments
DMDiabetic, treated with 0.5% CMC-Na solution in equivalent volume to the test treatments
COE-LDiabetic, treated with low dose of Chimonanthus nitens Oliv. leaf extract (50 mg/kg body weight)
COE-HDiabetic, treated with high dose of Chimonanthus nitens Oliv. leaf extract (200 mg/kg body weight)
ROSDiabetic, treated with rosiglitazone (4 mg/kg body weight)

NC was normal control group, DM was diabetic model group, COE-L was low dose of Chimonanthus nitens Oliv. leaf extract group, COE-H was high dose of Chimonanthus nitens Oliv. leaf extract group, and ROS was rosiglitazone group. There were 8 animals in each group. Treatments were started after three days of streptozotocin injection.
