Classical Ayurveda stratifies the management of Prameha (diabetes mellitus) by body constitution:
Sthula Pramehi (obese diabetics) require Shodhana (bio-purificatory) Panchakarma, while Krisha Pramehi (lean diabetics) require Brimhana (nourishing-restorative) Panchakarma delivered via oil-based Anuvasana Basti. The CDCKP protocol operationalizes this Brimhana approach. Despite being a distinct therapeutic arm with a different pathophysiological rationale, CDC-KP has consistently been underpowered (n=2–11) in previous clinical analyses — making its outcomes statistically indeterminate. This study presents the first adequately powered analysis of CDC-KP in a real-world clinical cohort.
