Abstract

Background and purpose:Diabetes mellitus is a chronic syndrome with major implications on vascular system. The atheroticchanges in peripheral vasculature are affected by the level of nitric oxide, a mediator that has many effects on the vascular system. Exercise was proven to improve the levels of nitric oxide. The purpose of this study was to compare between the response of nitric oxide level (NOx) to aerobic versus anaerobic exercises in type 2 diabetic women.Methods and results: the study was conducted to measure the response of nitric oxide to aerobic versus anaerobic exercises in type 2 diabetic women. Forty subjects aging from 50-60 years old were selected from Kom Hamada General Hospital visitors.They were divided into 2 groups equal in number, group A and group B. group A subjects engaged a moderate aerobic exercise program on treadmill for 3 months 3 times/week, with an intensity of 55-70 % maximum heart rate. group B performed anaerobic exercise program in form of resistance training using various weights for specific muscles, 1 bout each consists of 8-10 sets for every individual muscle at 50 % of (1-RM) for 3 months 3 times/week.Results: The results showed that regarding group (A) there was a significant increase in the measures of nitric oxide ({u2191} 423.08%), and a significant decrease in the levels of both cholesterol ({u2193} 11.98%), and LDL ({u2193}9.76%). There was a mild improvement in the values of HDL ({u2191}1.97%) but it wasn’t statistically significant as well as the decrease in the levels of HbA1c ({u2193} 5.21%). group (B) results showed that there was a significant increase in the levels of nitric oxide ({u2191} 605.88%), and a significant decrease in the levels of cholesterol ({u2193}14.65%) and LDL ({u2193} 16%).There was a mild increase the levels of HDL ({u2191} 1.98%) but it had no statistical significance, as well as for the decrease in the HbA1c levels ({u2193} 6.28%)
