Abstract
Aims
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is characterised by insulin deficiency. Due to perceived physical activity (PA)-related hypoglycaemia, a minority of people with T1DM exercise regularly. However, the relationship between T1DM and PA remains poorly understood. Our aim was to summarise the existing literature on the effects of PA on short-term glucose control (glycated haemoglobin or time in range) in people with T1DM.
Methods
We searched seven electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, Cinahl, SPORTDiscus, PEDro and Web Of Science) and two sources of the grey literature (ClinicalTrials.gov and ICTRP). All reviews were screened via title/abstract and full text by two independent reviewers (LE and HT), conflicts were solved by a third independent reviewer (DDC). We excluded animal studies, case reports, non-English articles, qualitative studies, conference abstracts and articles without full-text access. A meta-analysis using random effects model was performed to study the effect of PA on haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in people with T1DM.
Results
We obtained 19,201 unique references across nine different electronic databases. After screening and snowballing, 68 articles were found investigating the effect of PA on glycaemic control in people with T1DM. Overall, HbA1c levels in the PA group (mean difference = 0.29% (0.20%–0.39%)), were lower compared with the control group.
Conclusion
An overall small beneficial effect of PA on glycaemic control in people with T1DM was found. Caution is advised when interpreting the results of this meta-analysis, given variations in study type, duration, frequency and intensity of physical activity across included studies.
期刊介绍:
Diabetic Medicine, the official journal of Diabetes UK, is published monthly simultaneously, in print and online editions.
The journal publishes a range of key information on all clinical aspects of diabetes mellitus, ranging from human genetic studies through clinical physiology and trials to diabetes epidemiology. We do not publish original animal or cell culture studies unless they are part of a study of clinical diabetes involving humans. Categories of publication include research articles, reviews, editorials, commentaries, and correspondence. All material is peer-reviewed.
We aim to disseminate knowledge about diabetes research with the goal of improving the management of people with diabetes. The journal therefore seeks to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas between clinicians and researchers worldwide. Topics covered are of importance to all healthcare professionals working with people with diabetes, whether in primary care or specialist services.
Surplus generated from the sale of Diabetic Medicine is used by Diabetes UK to know diabetes better and fight diabetes more effectively on behalf of all people affected by and at risk of diabetes as well as their families and carers.”
