“…Extensive studies have shown that obesity increases the risk of chronic diseases, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, stroke (the leading cause of death worldwide), diabetes and its complications, and musculoskeletal disorders (e.g. osteoarthritis) (2)(3)(4)(5). Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a metabolic disease caused by a gradual decrease in insulin secretion or the inability of the body to respond to insulin.…”

Background and purpose: Recent research suggests that obese people are up to 80 times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than those with a normal BMI. Besides, obesity, inadequate physical activity, and unhealthy diets are the main causes of this metabolic disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of six weeks of high-intensity interval training on muscle expression of Fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) and Peroxisome proliferator activator receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) in obese diabetic rats. Material and methods: This experimental study was carried out on 12 male Wistar rats (220±20 g bodyweight and 10 weeks old). Animals received a high-fat diet within six weeks, and then in order to induce type 2 diabetes, an intraperitoneal injection of a single dose of 30 mg/kg freshly prepared streptozotocin (STZ) (Sigma, USA) solved in citrate buffer (pH 4.5) was performed. Diabetic rats were divided into two (High-Intensity Interval Training and control) groups randomly. HIIT program included five sessions of 30 minutes per week. 48 hours after the last training session, the outcomes were measured. The muscle expression of FTO and PPAR-γ was measured using the real-time PCR method. Independent samples t-test and Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) were applied to compare the means. Results: The expression of FTO (P<0.01), fasting blood sugar (P<0.001), weight (P<0.001) and HOMA-IR (P<0.004) significantly decreased after six weeks of high-intensity interval training, whilst PPAR-γ expression (P<0.007) significantly increased. Conclusion: Regarding the results of this study, it can be stated that a six-week HIIT program can improve glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. It can also increase the expression of diabetes- and obesity-associated genes (e.g., PPAR-γ and FTO), and thereby plays a prominent role in the control and treatment of type 2 diabetes in obese patients.

Dyslipidemia is an important risk factor of cardiovascular disease, whereas menopause is a decrease in ovarian follicular activity at the end of reproductive age of the women, which is significantly influenced by hormonal changes brought on by menopause’s impact on serum lipids. This study was undertaken among pre- and post-menopausal Paundra Kshatriya women in Sonarpur, South 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India in order to determine the prevalence of dyslipidemia. 142 adult Paundra Kshatriya women (n pre-menopausal women = 96; n post-menopausal women = 46) were selected from a peri-urban setting of Sonarpur, South 24 Parganas, West Bengal. Anthropometry and arterial pressure data were recorded. Blood samples were collected from study participants who were on 12 hours fasting. 19.79% of pre-menopausal women and 17.39% of post-menopausal women had normal levels of lipids. Prevalence of dyslipidemia was slightly higher (82.7%) among the post-menopausal women compared to pre-menopausal women (80.2%). While high LDL cholesterol emerged as one of the prime causes for dyslipidemia among pre-menopausal women, hypercholesterolemia emerged as one of the prime causes for dyslipidemia among post-menopausal women. Regression analysis revealed a significant impact of 3 factors in pre-menopausal women and impact of 6 factors in post-menopausal women. Though Paundra Kshatriya women maintain a relatively less stressful and high physical activity lifestyle, they exhibited high levels of lipid abnormalities. The peri-urban population is undergoing lifestyle and dietary changes due to a close proximity to the urban centre, Kolkata.
