Structured Summary:
In individuals with type 2 diabetes, single-joint and multi-joint resistance exercises showed similar glycemic reductions compared to a control session with no exercise, though they were associated with minimal changes in blood pressure.
| PICO | Description |
|---|---|
| Population | Individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. |
| Intervention | Single-joint and multi-joint resistance exercises during active experimental sessions. |
| Comparison | A control session involving no physical exercise. |
| Outcome | Both single-joint and multi-joint resistance exercises resulted in similar acute reductions in blood glucose levels, with neither showing superiority over the control session. Minimal changes were observed in blood pressure across all sessions. |
