ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how a specific type of exercise called eccentric training can help people with type II diabetes manage their blood sugar levels and improve their overall quality of life. Eccentric training involves lengthening and relaxing muscles while they are under tension, which can be beneficial for controlling diabetes. The trial is currently looking for participants who are adults aged 40 and older, living in Rawalpindi or Islamabad, and diagnosed with diabetes. To join, they should have a certain blood pressure level and a specific blood sugar measurement that indicates their diabetes is not well controlled.

Participants in this trial can expect to engage in a structured exercise program designed to improve their physical health and potentially reduce diabetes-related complications. The study is open to all genders, but individuals with certain health issues, like recent infections or heart conditions, cannot participate. This trial offers an opportunity for those with diabetes to potentially enhance their health through exercise, while also contributing to important research on diabetes management.
