High Intensity Interval Versus Focused Ultrasound on Insulin Resistance in Diabetics With Abdominal Obesity (diabetic)

May 7, 2024 updated by: Noha Ahmed Fouad Abd-Elrahman, Badr University

High Intensity Interval Exercise Versus Focused Ultrasound on Insulin Resistance in Diabetic Female Patients With Abdominal Obesity

Obesity and diabetes share a common insulin resistance pathway and contribute to chronic hyperglycemia. Both high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) and focused ultrasound (FUS) have been explored in the context of managing insulin resistance in diabetic individuals with abdominal obesity, though they operate through different mechanisms and have different implications.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Forty diabetic females aged 25 to 35 years old and body mass index was ≥ 30 kg/m², will participate in this study. They will be assigned into two equal groups, Group A will receive high intensity interval exercise 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet. Group B will receive focused ultrasound 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet. Assessment of abdominal obesity will be applied pre and post treatment through measuring Body mass index (BMI), Waist circumference (WC) in addition to Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone will be measured to determine effect of treatment on insulin resistance.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Group A High intrerval trainig exercise group
Group A will receive high intensity interval exercise 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet.
HIIT is a type of interval training exercise. It incorporates several rounds that alternate between several minutes of high intensity movements followed by short periods of lower intensity movements 2 times per week for 4 months.
Experimental: Group B Focused ultrasound group
Group B will receive focused ultrasound 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet.
Focused ultrasound will be applied over the anterior abdominal, two sessions per week for 4 months, each session 40 minutes.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Body mass index
Time Frame: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
The weight and height of each woman in both groups will be measured to calculate the body mass index (BMI)
Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
Waist circumference
Time Frame: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
Assessment of waist circumference of each woman by the tape measurement
Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
Skin fold
Time Frame: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
The thickness of the abdominal fold will be measured using skinfold calipers to provide information on changes in subcutaneous fat in the abdominal region.
Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone
Time Frame: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment
Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone will be measured to determine effect of treatment on insulin resistance.
