Bialystok Exercise Study in Diabetes
Abstract
The "Bialystok Exercise Study in Diabetes" (BESD), is an exercise intervention study, conducted by the Department of Endocrinology, Diabetology and Internal Medicine and Clinical Research Centre of the Medical University of Bialystok. In the project, sedentary males at different stages of dysglycemia living in the city of Bialystok participate in three months of an exercise intervention consisting of supervised training sessions at a local fitness centre. The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness of the exercise intervention in patients at different stages of dysglycemia progression, including type 2 diabetes and prediabetes and compare the response between groups.
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes, PreDiabetes, Overweight, Obesity, Dyslipidemias.
Primary outcome: HbA1c; Fasting glucose; 2-hour glucose; Fasting insulin; Lean body mass; Fat mass; Visceral Adipose Tissue mass; Weight; HOMA-IR; HOMA-beta; VO2max; Triglycerides (TG); High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL); Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL); Total cholesterol.
Enrollment: 300 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 300 participants or records.
