TLDR
Aerobic exercise alone or combined with RT improves glycemic control, systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, and waist circumference, and the impact of resistance exercise alone on CV risk markers in type 2 diabetes remains unclear.
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Exercise is a cornerstone of diabetes management and the prevention of incident diabetes. However, the impact of the mode of exercise on cardiovascular (CV) risk factors in type 2 diabetes is unclear. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a systematic review of the literature between 1970 and October 2009 in representative databases for the effect of aerobic or resistance exercise training on clinical markers of CV risk, including glycemic control, dyslipidemia, blood pressure, and body composition in patients with type 2 diabetes. RESULTS Of 645 articles retrieved, 34 met our inclusion criteria; most investigated aerobic exercise alone, and 10 reported combined exercise training. Aerobic alone or combined with resistance training (RT) significantly improved HbA 1c −0.6 and −0.67%, respectively (95% CI −0.98 to −0.27 and −0.93 to −0.40, respectively), systolic blood pressure (SBP) −6.08 and −3.59 mmHg, respectively (95% CI −10.79 to −1.36 and −6.93 to −0.24, respectively), and triglycerides −0.3 mmol/L (95% CI −0.48 to −0.11 and −0.57 to −0.02, respectively). Waist circumference was significantly improved −3.1 cm (95% CI −10.3 to −1.2) with combined aerobic and resistance exercise, although fewer studies and more heterogeneity of the responses were observed in the latter two markers. Resistance exercise alone or combined with any other form of exercise was not found to have any significant effect on CV markers. CONCLUSIONS Aerobic exercise alone or combined with RT improves glycemic control, SBP, triglycerides, and waist circumference. The impact of resistance exercise alone on CV risk markers in type 2 diabetes remains unclear.

Physical Activity Participation in People with an Active Diabetic Foot Ulceration: A Scoping Review

TL;DR: A scoping review using the Arksey and O'Malley framework was conducted in electronic databases and grey literature from inception to June 2020 to identify publications that investigated individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and an active diabetic foot ulceration at enrolment in relation to a physical activity intervention as mentioned in this paper .

Hemorheologic effects of low intensity endurance training in type 2 diabetic patients: A pilot study

TL;DR: In Type 2 diabetic patients: viscosity factors might be less responsive to training than in non diabetic individuals; (b) visceral fat loss is the main determinant of changes in hematocrit, plasma Viscosity and RBC aggregation.

TL;DR: Exercise modality had an impact on the proportion of subjects who responded to training, and non-response to one mode of training did not imply non- response to the alternate mode.

Multicomponent Cardiac Rehabilitation and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With Stable Angina: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

TL;DR: A systematic review of the effect of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) and its components on cardiovascular outcomes in patients with stable angina was carried out in this article, which revealed that CR improved exercise capacity and decreased angina frequency.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that the "diabetes epidemic" will continue even if levels of obesity remain constant, and given the increasing prevalence of obesity, it is likely that these figures provide an underestimate of future diabetes prevalence.

Mortality from Coronary Heart Disease in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes and in Nondiabetic Subjects with and without Prior Myocardial Infarction

TL;DR: It is suggested that diabetic patients without previous myocardial infarction have as high a risk of myocardia infarctions as nondiabetic patients with previous my Cardiac Arrest.
