Type 2 & other diabetes

Acute effects of a single bout structured resistance and combined exercise on blood glucose profile during exercise in patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy adults: A randomized crossover study

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Randomised crossover study

Authors' conclusion

Resistance and combined exercise reduce postprandial hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes patients. Monitoring glucose before exercise may help prevent extreme events.

Study context

Population
Patients with T2D and healthy adults performing postprandial exercise
Participants
21 vs 26
Comparison
Aerobic, resistance and combined exercise (trial A); three intensities of resistance and combined exercise (trials B and C); T2D vs healthy adults
  • T2Dn = 21
  • Healthy adultsn = 26reference
Methodological detailsthree trials, two arrangements of three interventions, CGM
  • Three trials
  • Two arrangements of three interventions
  • CGM

Primary result

As reported in the abstract

Blood glucose iAUC/min: main effect of subject group (repeated measures two-way ANOVA)
  • Between T2D and Healthy adults: p<0.001
  • Between T2D and Healthy adults: P = 0.003
  • Between T2D and Healthy adults: p<0.001

Further findings

Blood glucose slope

Exercise significantly impacted slope in trial A
P = 0.006
Subject group significantly impacted slope in trial C
P = 0.005
