DIABETES TYPE TWO: A CLINICAL STUDY
1. Background
Over the last year in the diagnostic clinic we have conducted diagnostics on 1,500 patients with diabetes.
In the treatment clinic we observed and treated 216 diabetic patients.
Our main criteria for successful treatment are the lowering and normalising of the levels of glucose in the blood and the level of cholesterol and its fractions; also the normalising of weight and arterial blood pressure. These criteria were observed in all the patients, bar one (215) and reported improved well-being and general health as well as improved control over their blood sugar levels. Most have been followed over the 12 months following treatment and have successfully maintained their improvement.
216 Diabetes Patients: 113 women and 103 men
· Average age 45 (+-2.32)
· Diabetes Type I: 20 people
· Diabetes Type II: 196 people
· Average level of glycated haemoglobin before treatment: 10.1% (+-2.2)
· Average level glycated haemoglobin 3 months after start of treatment:
3.01% lower than before (+-1.04%)

3. The Wellness Team
at the Clinic of Cybernetic Medicine
There are over 150 fully qualified and trained staff working at the Clinic in Moscow. These include doctors and nurses and ancillary staff, specialists in all aspects of diagnostics and the treatment of chronic illness. They are all committed to the principle of wellness – and helping their patients to achieve it.
International patients with diabetes type two will be in the care of clinic team headed by
Alexander Avshalumov
Founder Director of the Institute of Cybernetic Medicine and the Clinic
Mathematician and Scientist with a passion for medicine
Elena Synitsina
Medical Practitioner, Endocrinologist, with research interests in nephrology and cardiology
Marina Vladimirovna
Head of Medical Team – Chief Doctor
Questions in London may be addressed to the clinic’s international representative, Suno Wood (contact details below)

4. Practical Support during the Process
Full support is offered to the international patient at the clinic· Interpretation and translation will be supplied as required. Diagnostic results will be supplied in hard copy in English. This will include all analyses and diagnostic conclusions. (Usually approximately 30 pages) Analyses of blood and urine are supplied by external, fully registered and licensed laboratories in standard, international format. The report will effectively supply a ‘bench-mark’ of health and will be useful in discussions with the patient’s own doctor at home.
· Diagnostics take approximately 4 hours – patients need to arrive at the clinic at 10am, having not eaten since 8pm the night before. Results are usually available 5 to 7 days later, when a full consultation will be offered by a qualified doctor
· Treatment requires attendance at the clinic on an out-patient basis – usually for 3 to 4 hours a day for 21 to 26 days. Patients are asked to commit to the agreed number of days – it is important that the treatment is performed on a daily basis without any breaks (The clinic works 7/7) The only other restriction is likely to be a promise of no alcohol intake during the period of treatment.
· Follow up: The clinic offers free diagnostic tests two weeks after the end of treatment and then expects to stay in touch over the following year to ensure steady progress for the patient.
· Transfers to airport and into the city: The clinic has its own drivers and security personnel who will help to smooth any practical issues encountered on a first stay in Russia.

5. The Diabetes Type Two Offer:
If the treatment is so outstanding – why should we be giving it away? read moreThe Clinic of Cybernetic Medicine is a genuine centre of excellence situated in Moscow. It was founded in 1997 to put into practice new medical discoveries made by a team of physicists, bio-chemists and medical practitioners over the previous ten years. This research took place in the Department of Bio-Organic Sciences of the Academy of Sciences of the Russian Federation. Today the clinic has its consulting rooms at one end of their famous ‘DNA Spiral’ building on Miklukho-Maklaya Street. Today, the political environment is open and foreigners are welcome here to attend the clinic. Previously however, this building was closed to casual visitors and research in the Defense Complex of the USSR was obviously not accessible to foreigners. The result has been that although the clinic is now well-known in Russia and has a waiting list for patients; neither the clinic nor its therapies are known in Britain or America. Indeed, the present climate has hindered exchange of information between medical fraternities and patients have been frightened to travel to Russia. This project has been established with the aim of crossing the political divide and introducing the concept of maximum diagnostics and the system approach to treatment to the international community.
Top
6. Participation in the Project
The diagnostic programme and the treatment for diabetes type two is no longer ‘experimental.’ The clinic has been in existence for 8 years with no known serious side effects from any treatment given. Detailed records and observations have of course been made, as have patents for the new equipment, but these have not been witnessed by the international medical community, which is naturally sceptical of new discoveries. Additionally there have been few interested Western doctors able to read the existing scientific literature in RussiaThe aim of this project therefore is to follow the progress of a group of patients, documenting each stage in English in acceptable international format. This will provide a group of ‘case-studies’ which may form the basis later for wider international trials.
Top
7. Expectations of the Participant and the Clinic
Participation in the project is proposed on the basis that patients will be diagnosed and treated to the very highest standards of orthodox, classical medicine and international patient care. We anticipate that all patients will return home with a considerably improved state of well-being as well as enjoying a fully comprehensive understanding of their health and the medical issues which concern them. Where appropriate they will be advised on how to continue their medication and / or diet.In return the patient will agree to a waiver of confidentiality and make their record available for consultation and discussion with other doctors and patients, in the form of a ‘case-study.’ The patient may be asked to discuss their own case with a journalist during and after the treatment. Whilst the project is requesting openness from each participant, every attempt will be made to preserve the dignity of each patient and usually their case will be presented under a pseudonym.
Top
8. After Care
The patient will be asked to complete a questionnaire about their health, before and after treatment and also to cooperate with the doctors of the clinic by staying in touch for a year afterwards and providing them with information on any changes in their health and particularly with regard to their weight and blood sugar levels. This will usually be in the form of an email questionnaire and a telephone call once a month.Top
9. Participants` Options
The patient will have a full range of options presented to him on arrival at the clinic. The first stage – the diagnostics - are presented as a programme of analyses in the course of a morning. Following this and an intermediate consultation, the patient may agree to treatment or not as wished, with no obligation. If the patient does not wish to start treatment then s/he should return to the clinic for a full consultation one week later, following the clinic’s receipt of all the clinical and bio-chemical blood and urine tests.If the patient agrees to treatment, this will start the following day and will require attendance at the clinic on an out-patient basis for 3-4 hours for the following 21 days. The details of the treatment will depend on the outcome of the diagnostics and will be discussed thoroughly in advance.

10. Criteria for Assessment of Outcomes
The main criteria for successful treatment are the lowering and normalising of the· levels of glucose in the blood
· levels of glycated haemoglobin
· levels of cholesterol and its fractions
· weight
· arterial blood pressure.

11. The Cybernetic Methodology
The project participants will be given the ‘Gold Standard’ diagnostic programme – the details of this are on the clinic’s website at www.cyberneticmedicine.com . The Gold Standard comprises a complete range of tests, blood, urine and biochemical, followed by ultra-sound examination of all the major body organs, which provides an overall, structural picture of the body. If appropriate the Cardio-Visor[1] is then used to examine the working of the heart and the cardio-vascular system as well as detailed ECG readings. This is followed by the DCM[2] – a passive, monitoring of all the bodies major systems in action. It diagnoses function, not state, providing essential information on how the body is actually working, rather than the state it is in. All these tests, with the exception of the sample of blood taken by small syringe for analysis, are totally non-invasive. The overall experience is pleasant and relaxing in the hands of highly-professional doctors. The analyses provide a complete examination which goes far beyond that normally provided in the U.K. It will reveal any ‘hidden’ or asymptomatic illnesses, bacterial or viral and assess the role of the body’s systems in the progression of the patient’s diabetic condition. This is likely to reveal problems which can then be successfully treated resulting in a greatly improved sense of well-being. Energy levels will be restored, resulting in a relief from depression and improved control over blood sugar processing.Top
12. What’s in a name? Cybernetic Medicine Explained!
The Oxford Dictionary defines cybernetics as:‘The science of systems of control and communications in living organisms and machines`
The Institute of Cybernetic Medicine in Moscow is not related or connected to any other organisation offering ‘cybernetic medicine.’ The clinic is unique and its work is based on original research performed at the Institute, based at the Department of Bio-Organic Sciences at the Academy of Sciences of the Russian Federation.
The name was chosen to identify the real nature of the diagnostic and treatment programme. The word ‘cybernetic’ identifies the ‘system’ approach to healing – a concern for the establishment of a treatment programme which would match the body’s own management – a synchronised matching of all the body’s needs, or as Hippocrates once suggested, “We must heal the person, not the illness.” Success has arisen from the simple fact that if a doctor is presented with a total picture, s/he is usually able to prescribe smaller doses of simple drugs, precisely targeted to hit the spot required. This is compounded by the fact that many so-called ‘illnesses’ such as diabetes type two are often paralleled by other conditions which, if resolved, can lead to a dramatic improvement in health. There is nothing ‘alternative’ or ‘magical’ at the clinic – just good traditional medicine, used in a creative and innovative way.

14. UNDERSTANDING THE TREATMENT
Further Information for the patient
Understanding the treatment prescribed at the Clinic at the Institute of Cybernetic Medicine.
Yes! We have the latest machines from the Russian science-complex – we can treat you with polar cold and magnetic tornados – but exotic equipment is not at the core of our treatment.
Our cellular metabolic treatment is slow, gentle and relaxing – requiring attendance at the clinic each day for 3-4 hours only. Experienced nursing sisters will watch over you as you drift off to sleep while an intravenous drip re-establishes your cellular balance. Bring a favourite book or an ipod and feel at home. Doctors will assess you daily and visit regularly during the treatment sessions so as to ensure that each day the treatment is just what you need. This is a treatment programme individually designed just for you. After three to four days you will already begin to sleep better, feel fitter and stronger. After that you will be amazed at the continuing improvement. This system approach to treatment gives results which continue after the treatment is over. It is equivalent to a ‘renovation’ of the body. It is not just a ‘make-over!’
The above is an extract from our website which gives a realistic description of the experience of treatment in the clinic. So what is in the drip? – Everyone asks this and it is very difficult to give a precise answer. Each patient is genuinely treated individually although there is an overall programme which is based on the concept of detoxification followed by treatment followed by rehabilitation. The first two stages usually last approximately 21 days and involves treatment by intravenous drip. The final stage usually starts after the medical / pharmaceutical phase is finished and involves treatments such as massage, physiotherapy, cryotherapy (ultra-cold) and magneto turbo therapy. At this stage the drip is no longer used, because rehabilitation should only be given once the metabolism has been fully corrected and returned to optimum function.
The gold standard diagnostics programme provides the doctor with a complete understanding of which micro elements and minerals are missing – simple formulae are administered during the first phase of treatment to correct this. This results in the body re-establishing optimal digestive function and boosts the liver and kidneys to do their job properly. At a cellular level, correction takes place in acid/alkaline balances and boosts natural levels of oxygen. By day five there is usually a feeling of strength returning as the body returns to balance. The next stage is ‘treatment’ in that it tackles the underlying problems. For example if there are infections, then antibiotics may be given. Diabetes is usually treated with insulin to support the pancreas while its overall function is supported.
With regard to the ingredients of any medical drip, the clinic guarantees that
- No medical treatment is ever performed without a full prior consultation. The patient is provided with a full copy of all his analyses and a recommendation by the doctor as to how he should be treated.
He will explain in detail the requirements and solutions suggested and how the drip treatment will be performed. At this stage there is no obligation to proceed to the treatment phase.
If the patient refuses treatment at the clinic then the doctor will suggest alternatives as appropriate, again without obligation
- Before treatment begins, the patient must provide a full list of any drugs, supplements or other items which they have been using – the doctor will ensure that there is nothing in the treatment plan which could conflict with these. He may suggest changes during the treatment regime. This is to exclude even the slightest chance of side-effects.
- All of the doctors working at the clinic are fully qualified in orthodox classical medicine. Some are specialists in particular areas, such as endocrinology or cardio-vascular disease. This is not an ‘alternative’ treatment programme. It is based on normal, widely available pharmacology.
- The drip procedure is carried out by very experienced medical nurses and is not painful. They work only with single-use, disposable equipment – everything from syringes and needles to bed sheets are disposable. They observe the highest standards of hygiene and protection from cross-infection for both patients and staff.
- A wide range of medical products are used – all are internationally registered and licensed – all are well-known to be safe.
- No experimental or unlicensed drugs are used.
- All drugs to be used are taken from sealed containers, stored and used appropriately. Where appropriate they are tested for quality before use. Every effort is made to ensure that the medicines are of the highest quality
- No known allergens or medicines which might provoke an allergic reaction are used.
- The drip will contain medicines specifically appropriate to the patient’s illness, such as antibiotics or insulin – these will be discussed beforehand with the patient.
- The reason for treating by drip, rather than by daily dose of oral or injected drugs, is that it enables intensive therapy, in other words, very effective use of the drugs concerned, but as the medicine literally ‘drips’ into the patient, the doses used are actually much smaller than prescribed elsewhere. The other reason is that it enables the combining of medicines which together produce an effective boost to the work of the body’s own immune system. All combinations used will have been previously tested. There is total flexibility but not ‘experimentation’ in the prescription.
- The patient is monitored constantly and diagnostic checks are repeated, sometimes even on a daily basis. This means, for example that antibiotic therapy can be alternated with liver support minerals – producing a rapid destruction of bacterial illness without the destruction of ‘good’ intestinal bacteria or flora.
- The methodology used in the drip production is subject to the laws, not only of good and safe medicine, but to those of the patenting of scientific discovery and of commercial secrets. A formal scientific paper has not yet been written on the process. 7 patents have been registered in Russia concerning the use of the diagnostic tools and a further one is pending – this makes it impossible to describe in detail the process without losing the ability to register in the future. The unusual thing here is the methodology and the equipment – not the drugs.
- Doses of appropriate medicines taken gently over 3-4 hours each day in a three-week period provide terrific support and a rest for organs such as the liver, kidneys, thyroid and pancreas, while the rebalancing of missing minerals, the ph balance and boosting of oxygen levels enable the body to literally replenish its resources. Above all the immune system is boosted so that for many illnesses, the body is then able to cure itself and to work in a new regime supportive of full health.
Note that the body’s cells are fully renewed over a three month period – this treatment takes this into consideration and by gently taking the strain for a while, the body itself is able to fight back – the new cells produced will be considerably stronger than those before. Intensive but gentle insulin therapy delivered by drip leads to a much better balance of sugar levels for almost all patients – Some Type Two patients who were previously on insulin may be able to drop it or change to tablets. Some may be able to control it just with diet alone. Incidentally the enhanced metabolic rate usually results in considerable weight loss and a relief of depression with a return to normal energy levels.
- Treatment is usually followed 2 weeks later by a full set of diagnostics to ensure that the treatment is of a lasting nature and that no fall-back has appeared. Diabetic patients are often tracked for a year to ensure that their blood sugar levels remain stable. Please see attached report by Dr Synitsina on three typical subjects where patient’s blood levels fell significantly during treatment and remained so long term.
- We do not seek to mystify or to hide the nature of the treatment in the clinic, but treatment for one person is inappropriate for another – there are no fixed rules other than those which apply to any qualified doctor in any European country. The doctors here abide strictly by those rules and will talk openly to any patient at a confidential consultation.

Paper written by Dr. Elena SynitsinaEndocrinologist at the Clinic of Cybernetic Medicine
3 Case studies in Diabetes Type II
Diabetes presents a serious challenge to modern medicine. Although medical science has made considerable progress in understanding the progression of failure to metabolise carbohydrates, the means of treatment available has changed little. Insulin and the sulphonylureas are still the instrument of choice for the doctor today, just as they were at the beginning of the twentieth century. Indeed, the role of insulin therapy continues to increase. For patients with type one diabetes, it provides the only way to support glycaemic control, i.e. a normal level of glucose in the blood and so maintain life and health.
However, more and more patients with diabetes type two are also being given intensive insulin therapy, which cannot always be justified. Lowering the sugar level by increasing hyper-insulinity has a short term effect and at the same time creates a new threshold of insulin resistance – a lower sensitivity to insulin, which worsens the pathology and leads to an increase in the dose of insulin and the creation of another new level of insulin resistance. This stimulates atherogenesis, provokes increase in weight and the development of arterial hypertension. This increases the risk of developing vascular complications of diabetes such as macro-angiopathy and may lead to acute myocardia infarction, other acute problems in the cardio-vascular system and gangrene of the lower limbs. None the less the strategic issues which underlay the treatment of diabetes appear not to be on the agenda for general discussion.
Our clinic has a different approach to the treatment of diabetes. We start with the premise that the diagnostic process should be as wide and detailed as possible. In particular, before settling on a prescription for treatment, we make a careful assessment of the condition of the function of the Beta cells and the functional condition of the liver, as well as the state of the cardio-vascular system. We also take into account any other illness present, which makes for a maximal personalised approach to the individual. The main criteria for successful treatment are the lowering and normalising of the levels of glucose in the blood and the level of cholesterol and its fractions; also the normalising of weight and arterial blood pressure.
During the last year in the clinic we have conducted diagnostics on 1,500 patients with diabetes.
In the treatment clinic we observed and treated 216 diabetic patients.
- 113 women and 103 men.
- Average age 45 (+-2.32)
