[...]the only known voluntary function of the pelvic floor muscles is a mass contraction best described as an inward lift and squeeze around the urethra, vagina and rectum13. Because of its location inside the pelvis the PFM is the only muscle group in the body capable of giving structural support for the pelvic organs (urethra, vagina, and rectum14,15. The predominant mechanisms underlying the development of the impairment of glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus is represented by the stimulation of gluconeogenesis and development of insulin resistance in associated with the occurrence of an impairment of insulin secretion by the pancreas19. [...]45 subjects were included in this study.
