Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The relative improvement in whole-body insulin sensitivity. An insulin sensitivity index (SI) will be calculated by using<br>the minimal model (Bergman et al 1985); a higher SI indicates enhanced insulin sensitivity. Acute-phase insulin<br>secretion (AIRG) and glucose effectiveness (SG) were also determined from the IVGTT ( Bergman et al 1985).
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. Relative improvements in vascular function parameters using forearm plethysmography (change in forearmbloodflow in ml/100g forearm/min after nitriprusside/acetylcholine);<br /><br>2. Cardiovascular fitness (VO2max);<br /><br>3. Systemic blood pressure;<br /><br>4. Body composition;<br /><br>5. Lipid metabolism;<br /><br>6. Glycemic control. <br><br /><br /><br>In 12 subjects from the control group and 12 subjects from the intervention group: GLUT-4 expression in the muscle, mitochondrial enzymatic activity and muscle fiber morphologic characteristics from muscle biopsy analysis.
