Clinical trials

The prevalence of diabetes has increased worldwide, making it the most prevalent metabolic disorder. Physical inactivity contributes to the progression of this disease and aggravates other comorbidities, such as obesity and cardiovascular disease. Beneficial strategies aimed at promotion and healthy aging, oriented to decrease sedentary behavior, are necessary to obtain desirable metabolic effects and improve the quality of life of people with diabetes. The objective is to examine, through a clinical trial, the effect of decreasing sedentary time and increasing motivation to adopt an active lifestyle on different clinical, anthropometric and biochemical parameters in patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
