Exercise as Cardio Protective Modulates in Diabetic Patients

Completed
Conditions
Exercise
Diabetes Mellitus
Interventions
Other: Supervised aerobic exercise
Registration Number
NCT03925519
Lead Sponsor
King Saud University
Brief Summary

* Physical exercise for 6 months produced significant improvement in adiponectin, hs-CRP, and nitric oxide (NO) and was significantly correlated with adiposity markers, lipid profile and glycemic control factors in both obese and non-obese diabetic patients.

* Patients with good physical activity reported a significant decrease in BMI, CHD risk scores, reduced hs-CRP, an increase in the levels of adiponectin and nitric oxide.

* In patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, adiposity markers, lipid profile, hs-CRP, and adiponectin were significantly improved following moderate exercise interventions

Detailed Description

To elucidate the potential role of exercise as anti-adiposity and anti-cardio protective modulates, we thought to investigate the effect of supervised aerobic training of moderate intensity on adiposity markers, nitric oxide level, plasma adiponectin, hs-CRP, and its association with CHD risk score in obese and non-obese patients with type 2 diabetes.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Estimation of coronary heart disease risk scoresix months

The incidence risk score of coronary heart disease among type 2 diabetic participants .patients were classified into T2DM patients with high CHD risk (UKPDS risk ; ≥ 20%), moderate CHD risk (UKPDS risk ; 10-20%), and low (UKPDS risk;\< 10%) .

Analysis of blood sugar, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)six months

Blood glucose was measured using a glucose oxidase and peroxidase (GOD-POD) colorimetric method before and after exercise training

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Analysis of Nitric Oxidesix months

Plasma NO concentration was estimated as nitrate and nitrite using High Performance Liquid Chromatography technology (HPLC). Patients were subjected for nitri oxide analysis before and after exercise training interventions
