diabetes is a metabolic disorder specified by hyperglycemia following a defect in insulin secretion, insulin resistance or both. the aim of this study was to examine the effect of high-intensity interval training (hiit) on serum adiponectin levels and insulin resistance of women with type 2 diabetes. for this purpose, 35 overweight women with type 2 diabetes (age range 45-60 years, bmi 25-30 kg...

BACKGROUND Resistance exercise increases muscle mass and function in older adults, but responses are attenuated compared with younger people. Data suggest that long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) may enhance adaptations to resistance exercise in older women. To our knowledge, this possibility has not been investigated in men. OBJECTIVE We sought to determine the effects of long...

CONTEXT Research on d-aspartic acid (DAA) has demonstrated increases in total testosterone levels in untrained men, however research in resistance-trained men demonstrated no changes, and reductions in testosterone levels. The long-term consequences of DAA in a resistance trained population are currently unknown. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of DAA to alter basal testosterone level...

objectives: wheelchairs are the prime mobility aid of persons with spinal cord injuries. manual wheelchair propulsion puts a lot of demand on the cardiopulmonary as well as the skeletal system. the main purpose of the study was to compare the effects of both arm ergometry training and progressive resistance exercise training of upper limbs on resting heart rate and distance covered during wheel...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate and to compare the effect of a 12-wk period of whole-body vibration training and resistance training on human knee-extensor strength. METHODS Sixty-seven untrained females (21.4 +/- 1.8 yr) participated in the study. The whole-body vibration group (WBV, N = 18) and the placebo group (PL, N = 19) performed static and dynamic knee-extensor exerci...

dopaminergic signaling is one of the regulatory pathways being investigated for its implication in glucose metabolism. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of cabergoline on biochemical and anthropometric parameters in prediabetes stage (impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance). in this double blind, placebo-controlled, pilot study, 27 prediabetic adults were random...

Background and Objectives: Diabetes is one of the metabolic diseases with a significant increase rate in recent decades. The aim of this study was to investigate effects of eight weeks of resistance training and consumption of pomegranate juice on Glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1), dipeptidyl peptidase 4(DPP-4) and glycemic statuses in women with type 2 diabetes (a randomized controlled trial). M...

retinol binding protein4 (rbp4) such as adipocytokines that could be a marker for type 2 diabetes and seems to be leading to increased insulin resistance. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of aerobic training on serum rbp4 and insulin resistance in adult male rats. in the present experimental study 16 wistar rats were randomly divided to one of the exercise group (n=10) or co...

background resistance exercise is recommended as a useful therapeutic tool for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (t2d); however, the frequency of studies is inadequate to establish the precise mechanisms of any association between them. objectives in this study, we aimed to assess the effect of three months of resistance training on tcf7l2 expression in pancreatic tissues, serum insulin and gluc...
