Abstract

This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the additional effect of exercise to hypocaloric diet on body weight, body composition, glycaemic control, and cardio-respiratory fitness in adults with overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes. Embase, Medline, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central databases were evaluated, and 11 studies were included. Random-effects meta-analysis was performed on body weight and measures of body composition and glycaemic control, to compare the effect of hypocaloric diet plus exercise with hypocaloric diet alone. Exercise interventions consisted of walking or jogging, cycle ergometer training, football training, or resistance training, and duration varied from 2 to 52 weeks. Body weight and measures of body composition and glycaemic control decreased during both the combined intervention and hypocaloric diet alone. Mean difference in change of body weight (-0.77 kg [95%-CI: -2.03; 0.50]), BMI (-0.34 kg/m2 [95%-CI -0.73; 0.05]), waist circumference (-1.42 cm [95%-CI: -3.84; 1.00]), fat-free mass (-0.18 kg [95%-CI -0.52; 0.17]), fat mass (-1.61 kg [95%-CI -4.42; 1.19]), fasting glucose (+0.14 mmol/l [95%-CI -0.02; 0.30]), HbA1c (-1 mmol/mol [95%-CI -0.2; 0.1], -0.1 % [95%-CI -0.2; 0.1]), and HOMA-IR (+0.01 [95%-CI: -0.40; 0.42]) was not statistically different between the combined intervention and hypocaloric diet alone. Two studies reported VO2max and showed significant increases upon addition of exercise to hypocaloric diet. Based on limited data, we did not find additional effects of exercise to hypocaloric diet in adults with overweight or obesity and type 2 diabetes on body weight, body composition, or glycaemic control, while cardio-respiratory fitness improved.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 36. 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 30 June 2023.
All research outputs
#1,137,978
of 25,593,129 outputs
Outputs from Diabetic Medicine
#144
of 3,811 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#23,694
of 411,585 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Diabetic Medicine
#2
of 50 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,593,129 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 95th percentile: it's in the top 5% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,811 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.8. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% 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 411,585 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 50 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its contemporaries.
