NCT04626453

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to determine the physiological evidence of how muscular and cerebral oxygenation changes link to fatigue, physical, and cognitive performance after moderate-intensity exercise in sedentary older adults with type 2 diabetes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • normalized ∆SmO2 rate

    a parameter of muscular oxygenation to indicate the match or mismatch between oxygen supply and oxygen demand during the physical stimulus.

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • recovery time

    a parameter of muscular oxygenation, time taken in seconds after the exercise to back to the beginning oxygenation level.

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • Resting SmO2

    a parameter of muscular oxygenation, the average oxygenation level in % while sitting still for 3 minutes before doing physical performance tests.

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • Oxyhemoglobin differences

    a parameter of cerebral oxygenation, the difference of the oxyhemoglobin in mL per gram before and after the cognitive tests.

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • Fatigue

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • Timed Up and Go test score in seconds

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • Short Physical Performance Battery

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • Bilateral Heel Raise test

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • 6 Minute Walking Test

    measure twice, at baseline and after 2 months

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

sedentary older adults with Type 2 Diabetes

EXPERIMENTAL

Sedentary older adults with Type 2 Diabetes as the intervention group will do a 2-month home exercise.

Behavioral: 2-month home moderate-intensity exercise

Active older adults with Type 2 Diabetes

NO INTERVENTION

Active older adults with Type 2 Diabetes will not do exercise.

Healthy older adults

NO INTERVENTION

Healthy older adults will not do exercise.

Interventions

The 2-month exercise will be conducted at the participants' homes. Participants will be recommended to perform the combined exercise, which consists of the resistance exercise and walking at a faster speed than leisure walking at a moderate-intensity, for 6 days/week. They can decide which day they won't perform the exercise. Participants will be encouraged to do progressive resistance exercise and walking twice a day, once in the morning and the other time in the afternoon. Resistance exercise will be suggested to perform every other day for three days/week and walking as the aerobic exercise will be on alternate days for three days/week.
