β-Cell function and body mass index are predictors of exercise response in elderly patients with prediabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

To explore the predicting factors of exercise response (whether the participants converted to diabetes) in elderly patients with prediabetes.

Materials and methods

This is a retrospective subgroup analysis of the registered clinical trial with previous publication of the same cohort. A total of 248 participants with prediabetes were randomized to the aerobic training (n = 83) group, resistance training (n = 82) group and control group (n = 83). The patients who finished the 2-year exercise intervention were included in this analysis to explore the factors impacting exercise response.

Results

A total of 113 patients with prediabetes completed 2 years of exercise, with 56 participants in the aerobic exercise group and 57 in the resistance exercise grou
