摘要
Hypoxic exercise (HE) may have more pronounced effects on glucose homeostasis than exercise under normoxic conditions (NE), but effects on 24-h glucose profile and substrate utilization remain unclear. We investigated the effects of moderate -inten-sity HE compared with NE on 24-h glucose profile and substrate metabolism in overweight/obese individuals. Ten overweight/ obese men with impaired glucose homeostasis participated in a randomized, single-blind, crossover trial. Participants performed moderate-intensity cycling exercise for 4 consecutive days under mild normobaric hypoxic (FIO2: 15%) or normoxic (FIO2: 21%) con-ditions at similar relative exercise intensity (2 x 30 min/day at 50% of maximal heart rate, with a -4-wk washout period. Twenty-four-hour glucose levels and systemic oxygen saturation (SpO2) were monitored throughout the study. At day 5, plasma metabo-lites and substrate oxidation were determined during a mixed-meal test under normoxic conditions. SpO2 and absolute workload were lower (both P < 0.001), whereas heart rate was comparable during HE compared with NE. HE did not alter mean 24-h, day-time, and nighttime glucose concentrations, and measures of glycemic variability. However, the HE-induced decrease in SpO2 was positively correlated with HE-induced improvements in mean 24-h (rs = 0.683, P = 0.042) and daytime (rs = 0.783, P = 0.013) glucose concentrations. HE at similar relative exercise intensity reduces SpO2 and has comparable effects on mean 24-h glucose concentration and glycemic variability than NE in overweight/obese men with impaired glucose metabolism. Nevertheless, a more pronounced reduction in SpO2 during HE was associated with lower 24-h glucose concentrations, suggesting that a marked hypoxic stimulus is needed to improve glucose homeostasis. NEW & NOTEWORTHY We demonstrate that hypoxic exercise at similar relative exercise intensity (i.e. lower absolute workload) reduces systemic oxygen saturation (SpO2) and has comparable effects on mean 24-h glucose concentrations and glycemic vari-ability than normoxic exercise in men with overweight/obesity and impaired glucose metabolism. A more pronounced reduction in SpO2 during hypoxic exercise, however, was associated with lower 24-h and daytime glucose concentrations. Our findings suggest that a marked hypoxic stimulus may improve glucose homeostasis.
