Key result
Combined aerobic-resistance cardiac rehabilitation significantly improved exercise capacity in patients with type 2 diabetes, yielding benefits comparable to those observed in non-diabetic patients.
Why the study?
Does 12 weeks of combined aerobic-resistance training improve exercise capacity and cardiovascular parameters similarly in patients with and without type 2 diabetes after PCI?

Combined aerobic-resistance cardiac rehabilitation significantly improves exercise capacity in post-PCI patients, with similar benefits observed regardless of type 2 diabetes status.
Svačinová et al. (2008) conducted a cohort in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Coronary Artery Disease post-PCI (n=77). Combined aerobic-resistance cardiac rehabilitation vs. Non-diabetic patients undergoing the same rehabilitation program was evaluated on Percentage change in peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) (p=NS). Combined aerobic-resistance cardiac rehabilitation significantly improved exercise capacity in patients with type 2 diabetes, yielding benefits comparable to those observed in non-diabetic patients.
