The effects of exercise training on insulin resistance in children and adolescents with overweight or obesity: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

The aim of present meta-analysis was to determine the effects of exercise training (Exe) on insulin resistance (IR) and body weight in children and adolescents with overweight or obesity.

Methods

PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus were searched for original articles, published through October 2022 that included exercise versus control interventions on fasting glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR, and body weight outcomes in children and adolescents with overweight or obesity. Standardized mean differences (SMD) for fasting insulin, and weighted mean differences (WMD) for fasting glucose, HOMA-IR, body weight (BW), and 95% confidence intervals were determined using random effects models.

Results

Thirty-five studies comprising 1,550 children and adolescents with overweight and
