About this Research Topic
The first goal of this research topic is to determine the influence of exercise and/or physical activity on vascular comorbidity development and/or prognosis in type 2 diabetes. Secondly, this research topic aims to seek specific data that focusses on under-represented populations within the medical literature. We are hopeful that the realization of these goals may assist clinical and exercise practitioners when developing exercise interventions for their patients.
Specific themes of interest include but are not limited to:
• Novel exercise strategies for reducing vascular comorbidities of type 2 diabetes
• Sex, race/ethnicity, and age differences in response to exercise in type 2 diabetes
• Barriers to exercise in people with type 2 diabetes and the impact on vascular comorbidities
• Novel clinical approaches to exercise adherence in type 2 diabetes and the impact on vascular comorbidities
• Comparison of moderate intensity aerobic training to other exercise modalities in reducing vascular comorbidities of type 2 diabetes
All articles accepted by Frontiers are encouraged.
