The effects of whole body vibration in patients with type 2 diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Abstract: Background:Whole body vibration (WBV) has been used to increase physical activity levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Objective:To carry out a systematic review of the effects of WBV on the glycemic control, cardiovascular risk factors, and physical and functional capacity of patients with T2DM. Method: MEDLINE, LILACS, PEDro, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched up to June 1st, 2015. Randomized controlled trials investigating the effects of WBV, compared to con… Show more

“…Exposure of both healthy subjects and patients (with Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, stroke, type II diabetes, etc.) to such intervention showed improvements in proprioception, joint position sense, leg balance and gait, increase in bone mineral density, functional mobility and muscle strength, enhancement in muscle oxygenation and peripheral circulation (Ko et al, 2017;Orr, 2015;Robinson et al, 2016). Reduced peripheral circulation caused by peripheral vascular diseases or various clinical disorders as diabetes and rheumatologic diseases poses increased risk for mortality or morbidity, especially, among the elderly with declined ability to control skin blood flow and greater susceptibility and severity in macrovascular and microvascular impairments of the extremities (Mayfield et al, 2001;Tew et al, 2012).…”

“…Whole-body vibration (WBV) has been used in patients with neurological or musculoskeletal disorders as a new and effective intervention method to improve physical function 10 , 11 ) . WBV recently has been applied to improve the strength and balance of diabetic patients 12 , 13 ) , but it is yet to be applied as a therapeutic method for improving sensation.…”

“…WBV demonstrated an improvement in visible cellulite when assessed by blind reviewers [20]. In some adipose conditions, it is reported that vibrational evidence exists for the breakdown of adipose tissue in studies investigating obesity and diabetes [22], and significant correlations exist between changes in percent body fat and blood flow. WBV is also considered an effective means to increase leg blood flow and to reduce adiposity in patients with type II diabetes [23].…”
