Objective: To investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training on blood glucose control, adipocytokine secretion and oxidative stress response in patients with T2DM. Methods: A total of 92 patients with newly diagnosed T2DM who were treated in this hospital between July 2016 and July 2017 were divided into the control group (n=46) and HIIT group (n=46) by random number table method. Control group received conventional hypoglycemic therapy, HIIT group received hypoglycemic combined with high-intensity interval training therapy, and the intervention lasted for 3 months. The differences in blood glucose control, adipocytokine secretion and oxidative stress response were compared between the two groups before and after intervention. Results: Before intervention, the differences in blood glucose index levels in peripheral blood as well as the contents of adipocytokines and oxidative stress indexes in serum were not statistically significant between the two groups of patients. After 3 months of intervention, blood glucose indexes FPG, FINS and 2hPBG levels in peripheral blood of HIIT group were lower than those of control group; adipocytokine APN content in serum was higher than that of control group whereas LEP, Resistin and CHEM contents were lower than those of control group; oxidative stress indexes MDA and ROS contents in serum were lower than those of control group whereas T-AOC content was higher than that of control group. Conclusion: Routine hypoglycemic therapy combined with high-intensity interval training can further control the blood glucose levels, regulate the secretion of adipocytokines and reduce the systemic oxidative stress response.
