| Abstract |
Some previous studies suggested that metformin might attenuate the effects of exercise on glycaemia or fitness. We therefore examined whether metformin use influenced changes in glycaemic control, fitness, body weight or waist circumference resulting from aerobic and/or resistance training in people with type 2 diabetes participating in an exercise intervention trial. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 14. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 January 2024.
All research outputs
#2,564,304
of 25,183,822 outputs
Outputs from Diabetologia
#1,302
of 5,326 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#21,444
of 206,000 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Diabetologia
#8
of 53 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,183,822 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,326 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 24.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 206,000 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 89% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 53 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its contemporaries.
