Modification of insulin sensitivity and glycemic control by activity and exercise.
Study Goal
The researchers aimed to explore the role of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) in modulating insulin sensitivity and glycemic control in the context of type 2 diabetes prevention.
Results Summary
The abstract suggests that HIIT, along with other forms of physical activity, has a positive effect on insulin sensitivity and glycemic control, though specific results are not detailed.

Type 2 diabetes has progressed into a major contributor to preventable death, and developing optimal therapeutic strategies to prevent future type 2 diabetes and its primary clinical manifestation of cardiovascular disease is a major public health challenge. This article will provide a brief overview of the role of activity and exercise in modulating insulin sensitivity and will outline the effect of physical activity, high-intensity interval training, and resistance training on insulin sensitivity and glycemic control.
