TLDR
Improvements in metabolic health in older adults with type 2 diabetes were mediated through improvements in body composition only if they were achieved through high-intensity PRT.

Hippocampal insulin resistance and cognitive dysfunction

TL;DR: Intervention studies which suggest that the restoration of insulin activity in the hippocampus may be an effective strategy to alleviate the cognitive decline associated with T2DM and AD are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Update on the effects of physical activity on insulin sensitivity in humans.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that regular PA reduces the risk of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, and SI improves when individuals comply with exercise and/or PA guidelines, although these findings are not unanimous.

Role of insulin in the regulation of human skeletal muscle protein synthesis and breakdown: a systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: Insulin appears to have a permissive role in MPS in the presence of elevated AAs, and plays a clear role in reducing MPB independent of AA availability, and demonstrates the complex role of insulin in regulating skeletal muscle metabolism.

International Exercise Recommendations in Older Adults (ICFSR): Expert Consensus Guidelines

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide evidence-based rationale for using exercise and physical activity (PA) for health promotion and disease prevention and treatment in older adults, and discuss the specific modalities and doses that have been studied in randomised controlled trials for their effectiveness in attenuating physiological changes of ageing, disease prevention, and/or improvement of older adults with chronic disease and disability.

Safety and efficacy of resistance exercise in prostate cancer patients with bone metastases

TL;DR: Initial evidence involving a small sample size suggests that appropriately designed and supervised resistance exercise may be safe and well tolerated by prostate cancer patients with bone metastatic disease and can lead to improvements in physical function, physical activity levels and lean mass.

Association of glycaemia with macrovascular and microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes (UKPDS 35): prospective observational study

TL;DR: In patients with type 2 diabetes the risk of diabetic complications was strongly associated with previous hyperglycaemia, with the lowest risk being in those with HbA1c values in the normal range (<6.0%).

Global estimates of the prevalence of diabetes for 2010 and 2030.

TL;DR: These predictions, based on a larger number of studies than previous estimates, indicate a growing burden of diabetes, particularly in developing countries.

Use and Abuse of HOMA Modeling

TL;DR: The HOMA model has become a widely used clinical and epidemiological tool and, when used appropriately, it can yield valuable data, however, as with all models, the primary input data needs to be robust, and the data need to be interpreted carefully.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homeostasis model assessment closely mirrors the glucose clamp technique in the assessment of insulin sensitivity: studies in subjects with various degrees of glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity.

TL;DR: The HOMA can be reliably used in large-scale or epidemiological studies in which only a fasting blood sample is available to assess insulin sensitivity and there is good agreement between the two methods in the categorization of subjects according to insulin sensitivity.
