Description
Summary:Objective: To investigate the influence of combined exercise training on indices of obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular risk in type 2 diabetes patients. Design: A double-blind randomized controlled trial with patients receiving either combination (COM), endurance (END) or no training (C). Setting: Sint-Jozef hospital (Belgium), general practice (Holland). Subjects: Forty-six type 2 diabetes patients (17 female, 29 male). Interventions: COM versus END and C. Patients exercised for three months, three times a week for 1 hour. Main measures: Six-minute walk test (6MW T), peak Vo2, strength in upper and lower limbs, sit-to-stand, height, weight, body mass index, fat mass, glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c), glycaemia, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), total cholesterol and quality of life (General Health Survey Short Form (SF-36)). Results: COM had significant better results on sit-to-stand (P
