Key result
Combined dietary modification and aerobic exercise training reduced systemic arterial stiffness (baPWV) by 10.7%, a significantly greater decrease than dietary modification alone in obese men.
Why the study?
Does combined dietary modification and aerobic exercise training improve arterial stiffness in obese men compared to either intervention alone?
Does combined dietary modification and aerobic exercise training improve arterial stiffness in obese men compared to either intervention alone?
Absolute Event Rate: -10.7% vs -5.2%
p-value: p=<0.05
Combining dietary modification with aerobic exercise training provides an additive benefit in reducing systemic arterial stiffness in obese men compared to either lifestyle intervention alone.

Supports greater arterial stiffness reduction with combined diet-exercise versus diet alone in obese men; hypothesis-generating, needs randomized trials.
Zempo‐Miyaki et al. (2014) studied Obesity (n=52). Combined dietary modification and aerobic exercise training vs. Dietary modification alone or aerobic exercise alone was evaluated on Percent change in brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) (p=<0.05). Combined dietary modification and aerobic exercise training reduced systemic arterial stiffness (baPWV) by 10.7%, a significantly greater decrease than dietary modification alone in obese men.
