Effects of a Combined Endurance/Strength Training Program on Circulating Irisin Levels in Overweight/Obese Men and Women with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Irisin is a promising therapeutic target in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), as studies have demonstrated that irisin can induce "browning" of adipocytes and mitigate pro-inflammatory conditions. Sex-specific changes in irisin levels have been reported in a study involving healthy men and women following physical training. The present study aims to analyze the effects of an 8-week training intervention on circulating irisin levels in patients with T2DM and to find out whether the training responses differ between T2DM men and women.

Effects of exercising before breakfast on the health of T2DM patients-A randomized controlled trial.

This is the first study to examine whether training before breakfast in the overnight-fasted state is more effective in improving the health of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) than after breakfast in the fed state. Thirty T2DM patients (60 ± 8 years, 33.7 ± 4.
