About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Type 2 Diabetes focused on measuring Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, obesity, metabolic syndrome

Eligibility Criteria

35 Years - 60 Years (Adult)MaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Type 2 diabetes diagnosed
  • 35-60 years old men

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Smoker
  • Ischaemic heart Disease
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Joint or limp pains to an extent where recreational soccer can not be performed.
  • Apoplexia.
  • Anticoagulant therapy (aspirin accepted)

Sites / Locations

  • University of Copenhagen

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

Recreational soccer training

Control group

Arm Description

12 men participate in recreational soccer training for 6 months

10 subjects serve as a control group with no change in lifestyle in the study period

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Cardiac adaptations
All participants are examined with 2d- echocardiography, speckletracking, strain and colordoppler
muscular adaptations
muscle biopsies are obtaned from the vastus lateralis muscle at baseline, after 12 and 24 weeks, respectively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Vascular function
All subjects are examined with peripheral arterial tonometri (endopat). Plasma samples and muscle biopsies are analyzed for relevant markers of vascular function
glycaemic control
HbA1c, insulin and C-peptide are meassured at baseline, after 12 and 24 weeks, respectively

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The present study investigates the effects of recreational soccer in type 2 diabetic men in regard to muscular, cardiovascular adaptations and glycaemic control. 12 men participate in 6 month structured recreational soccer training and 10 men act as control with no change in lifestyle. Testing consisting of fasting blood samples, muscle biopsies, Dexa-scans, echocardiography, maximal oxygen consumption, Yo-Yo interval test, bloodpressure, Resting heart rate, and endothelial function (Itamar, Endopat)will be performed at baseline, after 12 and 24 weeks, respectively. The study examines the hypothesis that the high-intensity aerobic work profile combined with a high anaerobic turnover from the nature of soccer (accelerations, decelerations, turns, sudden stops) will improve glycaemic control, muscle and cardiac function and taken together will improve the overall health profile in type 2 diabetic men
