Brief Summary

Obesity and diabetes share a common insulin resistance pathway and contribute to chronic hyperglycemia. Both high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) and focused ultrasound (FUS) have been explored in the context of managing insulin resistance in diabetic individuals with abdominal obesity, though they operate through different mechanisms and have different implications.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Body mass index

    The weight and height of each woman in both groups will be measured to calculate the body mass index (BMI)

    Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

  • Waist circumference

    Assessment of waist circumference of each woman by the tape measurement

    Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

  • Skin fold

    The thickness of the abdominal fold will be measured using skinfold calipers to provide information on changes in subcutaneous fat in the abdominal region.

    Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

  • Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone

    Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone will be measured to determine effect of treatment on insulin resistance.

    Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

Study Arms (2)

Group A High intrerval trainig exercise group

EXPERIMENTAL

Group A will receive high intensity interval exercise 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet.

Other: High intensity interval exercise

Group B Focused ultrasound group

EXPERIMENTAL

Group B will receive focused ultrasound 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet.

Other: Focused ultrasound

Interventions

HIIT is a type of interval training exercise. It incorporates several rounds that alternate between several minutes of high intensity movements followed by short periods of lower intensity movements 2 times per week for 4 months.

Group A High intrerval trainig exercise group

Focused ultrasound will be applied over the anterior abdominal, two sessions per week for 4 months, each session 40 minutes.

Group B Focused ultrasound group
