Summary
Conclusion




Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases
characterized by high blood glucose
concentrations resulting from defects in
insulin secretion, insulin action, or both.
Abnormalities in metabolism of CHO, protein
and fat are present.
People with diabetes have bodies that don’t
produce or respond to insulin.
Without effective insulin, hyperglycemia
(elevated blood glucose) occurs.
 Type
1
 Type 2
 Gestational
 Other types







Absolute deficiency of insulin
Marked reduction of beta-cells in pancreas
Thought to involve an autoimmune
response-no known means to prevention
Exogenous insulin must be supplied
Prone to ketoacidosis
Accounts for 5% to 10% of diagnosed cases
Can occur at any age although most
affected people are children and young
adults

Relative insulin deficiency-insulin resistant
◦ Elevated, reduced or normal insulin levels

Risk factors include: (test on diabetes

Genetics
Older age
Obesity (particularly abdominal)
Sedentary lifestyle
Gestational diabetes
Pre-diabetes
Race or ethnicity





Most cases do not require exogenous
insulin
Do not develop ketoacidosis except in
cases of unusual stress
Accounts for 90% to 95% of diabetes
cases
Usually occurs after the age of 40 but is
developing in young adults and youth
NO CURE-only management!



Glucose intolerance
during pregnancy
Due to contrainsulin effects of
pregnancy
20% to 50% of
women with
gestational diabetes
develop type 2
within 5 – 10 years
Gestational


Results from specific
genetic syndromes,
surgery, drugs,
malnutrition,
infections, or other
illnesses

pathophysiology,
may or may not
require insulin

Comments and concerns with
exercise
Exantide
Byetta
Exantide is used in treatment of
type 2 and is found to increase
postprandial insulin response,
delay gastric emptying,
suppress glucagon secretion,
and reduce appetite
Pramlintide
Symlin
Pramlintide is a synthetic
hormone similar to human
amylin. It may be used in
combination with insulin
therapy for treatment of either
type 1 or 2. Pramlintide works
by suppressing glucagon
secretion and delaying gastric
emptying.
Insulin and counter
regulatory hormones
don’t respond to
exercise in the
normal manner
Balance between
peripheral glucose
utilization and
hepatic glucose
production may be
disturbed=
hypo/hyperglycemia



Insulin allows glucose to enter the cells of
insulin-sensitive tissue
Oral and injectable agents for type 2 diabetes
are meds that help the pancreas secrete more
insulin, alter CHO absorption, reduce liver
glycogenolysis, increase insulin sensitivity, or
a combination of effects
Meds may cause hypoglycemia
◦ Pay attention to med timing, food intake, blood
glucose level before and after exercise




Muscle contractions increase glucose
uptake
Both aerobic and resistance exercises
increase GLUT4 abundance and BG uptake
Insulin action and glucose tolerance is
increased (type 2)
Dependent on several factors
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦
Use and type of meds to lower blood glucose
Timing of meds
Blood glucose level prior to exercise
Timing, amount, and type of previous food intake
Presence and severity of diabetic complications
Use of other meds
Intensity, duration and type of exercise
Weight loss (type 2)
 Improved insulin sensitivity
 Possible prevention of type 2
 For those with type 2-possible
improvement in blood glucose control
 Improved CV health

◦ Lower triglycerides
◦ Lowers blood pressure

Exercise testing using protocols for
populations at risk for CAD recommended in
individuals who:
Have type 1 and are over 30 yrs
Have had type 1 longer than 15 years
Have type 2 and are over 35 yrs
Have either type 1 or 2 and one or more other CAD
risk factors
◦ Have suspected or known CAD, or
◦ Have any microvascular or neurological diabetic
complications
◦

Methods
Measures
endpoints
Aerobic
Cycle (ramp protocol
17 W/min; staged
protocol 25-50 W/3
min stage)
Treadmill (1-2
METs/stage)
12-lead ECG, HR
Serious dysrhythmias
>2 mm ST-segment
depression or
elevation
Ischemic threshold
Significant T-wave
change
BP
RPE (6-20)
SBP >250 mmHg or
DBP >115 mmHg
Onset of peripheral
pain
People with diabetes who don’t meet
any of the criteria for CAD may be
tested with use of protocols for the
general healthy population
 Primary objectives are to:

◦ Identify the presence and extent of CAD
◦ Determine appropriate intensity range for
aerobic exercise training






Must be individualized according to med
schedule, presence and severity of diabetic
complications, and goals of program
Hypoglycemic meds=additional 15 g of CHO
before or after exercise
15 to 30 g CHO (fat free) every hour during
vigorous or exercise>60 min
Proper hydration
Good foot care-proper shoes and socks
Athletes will most often know their limits but
trial and error with beginners-monitor BG!!
Active retinal hemorrhage or recent
retinopathy therapy
 Illness or infection
 Blood glucose >250 mg/dl and
ketones are present
 Blood glucose <70 mg/dl
 If blood glucose is <100 mg/dl, CHO
should be consumed

Diabetes is a disease that should be taken
seriously
Some type 2 can be managed with diet and
exercise
If there are no significant complications with
diabetes mellitus, patients can enjoy exercise
with very few limitations
Exercise for type 2 patients is a must!!
