Why the study?
Does aerobic exercise improve endothelial function more than resistance training in women with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus?
Does aerobic exercise improve endothelial function more than resistance training in women with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus?
Aerobic exercise is superior to resistance training for improving endothelial function in women with type 2 diabetes, and aerobic capacity strongly predicts these improvements.
May support aerobic preference for endothelial function in T2DM; hypothesis-generating, needing RCTs in women before practice change.
Aerobic exercise appears to be more beneficial than resistance exercise for improving endothelial function in T2DM. In addition, aerobic capacity could be a better predictor of changes in FMD than BW and glycemic control.
