May enhance aerobic capacity in insulin-deficient models; leaves open parasympathetic effects for human translation.
Does moderate exercise training improve metabolic and cardiovascular parameters in diabetic rats?
Moderate exercise training improves aerobic capacity in diabetic rats but does not alter parasympathetic cardiovascular characteristics.
