Study Summary

This trial will study how diabetes affects the muscle, and if exercise can help improve symptoms. They will use MRI to measure muscle stiffness, strength, and function.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 40-75 with Type 2 diabetes who can walk on their own and have a BMI under 40. It's not suitable for those with severe heart or musculoskeletal issues, certain central nervous system conditions, stage 2 hypertension, MRI contraindications like pacemakers, chronic diseases including alcoholism or drug use, or pregnant women.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how a 10-week exercise program affects hyaluronan (HA) accumulation in muscles of people with Type 2 diabetes. HA levels will be measured using MRI to see if exercise improves muscle stiffness, strength, ankle mobility and overall physical function.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the trial itself does not involve medication that could cause side effects typical of drugs, participants may experience general exercise-related discomfort such as muscle soreness or fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What goals has this research endeavor been designed to accomplish?

"During a Week 1 to Week 11 time period, researchers will record the alteration in calf muscle strength as their primary outcome. The number of participants with neuropathy (as determined by Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument), osteoarthritis (based on American College of Rheumatology Clinical Classification Criteria) and adherence to an exercise program (with <20% attrition and >75% attendance levels expected for those with Type 2 diabetes Mellitus) are also tracked as secondary outcomes."
