Abstract:
Regular exercise is crucial for regulating metabolic parameters. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the e ects of regular exercise duration on glycaemic and metabolic parameters, insulin resistance, and atherogenic indices in individuals attending a single-family health centre. A total of 403 individuals were divided into three groups based on their exercise status as Group A with no regular exercise, Group B with <150 minutes, and Group C with e150 minutes of regular excercise per week. Thedemographic and clinical data were collected from the subjects' records. The median age in Group A was signi cantly higher than in Group B and C, the median weight of Group A and B was signi cantly lower than in Group C, andhigh-density lipoprotein cholesterol level was signi cantly higher in Group B than in C. Type 2 diabetes percentage was signi cantly higher in Group C compared to B.Other glycaemic and metabolic parameters, insulin-resistance, and atherogenic indices were similar among the three groups. The results of this study indicated that subjects with higher weight, lower HDL levels, and Type 2 diabetes mellitus were those doing regular exercise in the advised duration per week.
