    Impact of continuous vs. interval training on oxygen extraction and cardiac function during exercise in type 2 diabetes mellitus

    Exercise training improves exercise capacity in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It remains to be elucidated whether such improvements result from cardiac or peripheral muscular adaptations, and whether these ...

    Asymptomatic type 2 diabetes mellitus display a reduced myocardial deformation but adequate response during exercise

    The development of myocardial fibrosis is a major complication of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), impairing myocardial deformation and, therefore, cardiac performance. It remains to be established whether abn...

    Are fixed-rate step tests medically safe for assessing physical fitness?

    Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) can be predicted by fixed-rate step tests. However, it remains to be analyzed as to what exercise intensities are reached during such tests to address medical safety. In this study,...

    Plasma adipokine and inflammatory marker concentrations are altered in obese, as opposed to non-obese, type 2 diabetes patients

    Elevated plasma free fatty acid (FFA), inflammatory marker, and altered adipokine concentrations have been observed in obese type 2 diabetes patients. It remains unclear whether these altered plasma concentrat...

    Low agreement of ventilatory threshold between training modes in cardiac patients

    In cardiac rehabilitation, different endurance exercises such as walking and cycling are often performed. The training intensity for these modes is determined from a single treadmill or bicycle test by ventila...
