Effects of structured exercise regime on Glycosylated Hemoglobin and C reactive protein in patients with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus - A randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To evaluate the effects of structured exercise regime on Glycosylated hemoglobin and C reactive protein in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus.

Methods

This two arm parallel randomized controlled trial was conducted at Fauji Foundation Hospital, Rawalpindi from November 2018 till December 2019 on the 54 diagnosed gestational diabetes mellitus patients (Dropped out=4 Analyzed= 50) with age 20 to 40 years and gestational age from 20 to 36 weeks. Selection was done via convenient sampling technique and randomized into two groups (n=25) by sealed envelope method. Structured exercise regime group received combination of moderate intensity aerobics, stabilization and pelvic floor muscles exercises twice a week for 5 weeks (40 min per session) along with dietary and medical interventions while control group received only medical and dietary interventions with postural education. Demographics, glycosylated hemoglobin and C reactive protein were recorded at baseline then after 5 weeks of intervention. Analysis was done by SPSS 20.

Results

Mean age was 35.92 ± 5.24 years in control group while 34.36 ± 5.21 years in interventional group. Between group analysis for HbA1c showed no significant difference at base line (p >0.05) but showed significant difference (p <0.05) after five weeks' interventions. Similarly, for C reactive protein both groups showed no significant difference (p >0.05) at baseline but after five weeks of interventions showed significant difference (p<0.05).

Conclusion

Structured exercise regime helps in reducing values of glycosylated hemoglobin and C reactive protein in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus.

Project description:Background: Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) variability is a risk factor for cardiovascular complications in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but its relationship with the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) is unclear. Methods: Patients with T2DM who underwent coronary angiography due to angina were enrolled. HbA1c variability was expressed as coefficient of variation (CV), standard deviation (SD), variability independent of mean (VIM), and time in range (TIR). The severity of CAD was expressed by the number of involved vessels and Gensini score. Multivariate regression models were constructed to test the relationship between HbA1c variability, number of involved vessels, and the Gensini score, followed by linear regression analysis. Results: A total of 147 patients were included. In multivariate analysis, VIM-HbA1c (OR = 2.604; IQR: 1.15, 5.90; r = 0.026) and HbA1cTIR (OR = 0.13; IQR: 0.04, 0.41; r < 0.001) were independent risk factors for the number of involved vessels. After adjustment, HbA1cTIR (OR = 0.01; IQR: 0.002, 0.04; r < 0.001), SD-HbA1c (OR = 4.12, IQR: 1.64, 10.35; r = 0.001), CV-HbA1c (OR = 1.41, IQR: 1.04, 1.92; r = 0.007), and VIM-HbA1c (OR = 3.26; IQR: 1.43, 7.47; r = 0.003) were independent risk factors for the Gensini score. In the linear analysis, the Gensini score was negatively correlated with HbA1cTIR (β = -0.629; r < 0.001) and positively correlated with SD-HbA1c (β = 0.271; r = 0.001) and CV-HbA1c (β = 0.176; r = 0.033). After subgroup analysis, HbA1cTIR was a risk factor for the number of involved vessels. The Gensini score was negatively correlated with HbA1cTIR and positively correlated with SD-HbA1c at subgroups of subjects with a mean HbA1c ≤ 7%. Conclusions: Our analysis indicates that HbA1c variability, especially HbA1cTIR, plays a role for the severity of CAD in patients with T2DM. HbA1c variability may provide additional information and require management even at the glycemic target. Translational Aspects: Studies have shown that HbA1c variability is related to cardiovascular complications. Further, we explore the correlation between HbA1c variability and the severity of CAD. HbA1c variability is a risk factor for coronary stenosis in T2DM. It may be a potential indicator reflecting glycemic control for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular complications.
