The Efficacy of Exercise Training for Cutaneous Microvascular Reactivity in the Foot in People with Diabetes and Obesity: Secondary Analyses from a Randomized Controlled Trial
JOURNAL OF CLINICAL MEDICINE(2022)
摘要
It is unclear if cutaneous microvascular dysfunction associated with diabetes and obesity can be ameliorated with exercise. We investigated the effect of 12-weeks of exercise training on cutaneous microvascular reactivity in the foot. Thirty-three inactive adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity (55% male, 56.1 +/- 7.9 years, BMI: 35.8 +/- 5, diabetes duration: 7.9 +/- 6.3 years) were randomly allocated to 12-weeks of either (i) moderate-intensity continuous training [50-60% peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak), 30-45 min, 3 d/week], (ii) low-volume high-intensity interval training (90% VO2peak, 1-4 min, 3 d/week) or (iii) sham exercise placebo. Post-occlusive reactive hyperaemia at the hallux was determined by laser-Doppler fluxmetry. Though time to peak flux post-occlusion almost halved following moderate intensity exercise, no outcome measure reached statistical significance (p > 0.05). These secondary findings from a randomised controlled trial are the first data reporting the effect of exercise interventions on cutaneous microvascular reactivity in the foot in people with diabetes. A period of 12 weeks of moderate-intensity or low-volume high-intensity exercise may not be enough to elicit functional improvements in foot microvascular reactivity in adults with type 2 diabetes and obesity. Larger, sufficiently powered, prospective studies are necessary to determine if additional weight loss and/or higher exercise volume is required.
