Increase in Serum insulin levels was observed in diabetic animals due to pancreatic β cell regeneration. There is a significant improvement of the haematological parameters like RBC count, Hb level and the ESR to a near normal level indicating the significant recovery from the anaemic condition and arthritic progress thus justifying its significant role in arthritic conditions.
