Abstract: | The role of treadmill exercise on blood glucose homeostasis in noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) were studied
using males between age of 45 and 60 years (X-52), who were clinically and biochemically-confirmed cases of NIDDM were taken
into study group. Control group comprised of 10 males between age group of 45 to 60 (X-53) years. All the subjects were assessed
by physician and were investigated to confirm diabetic status. The whole study period was extended for 6 weeks. The significant
decrease in postprandial blood sugar (44.4 mg% for the study group and 32.2mg% for the control group) with a significant inter
group difference (P<0.05) was observed. The mean decrease in fasting blood sugar (39.4mg% for the study group and 27.4mg%
for the control group), with a marginal inter group difference (P<0.05) was observed. The treadmill exercise was found to
be a definite tool in addition to drug and diet in glycemic control. |
