Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to highlight the pivotal role of exercise in preventing and managing all types of diabetes. The number of people living with diabetes is projected to reach 643 million by 2030 and 783 million by 2045, underscoring the urgent need for evidence-based strategies that complement and extend beyond pharmacological treatments.
As a key lifestyle intervention, exercise has consistently been shown to improve glycemic control, cardiovascular and metabolic health, musculoskeletal strength, mental well-being, and sleep quality, while reducing inflammation, visceral fat, and cardiometabolic risk. However, this is a non-exhaustive list of the documented benefits, and ongoing research continues to reveal additional positive effects across multiple physiological and psychosocial domains. These positive effects manifest both for individuals at risk of diabetes and those already living with diabetes. However, the magnitude of these benefits can vary depending on factors such as the type and duration of diabetes, age, sex, baseline physical fitness, comorbidities, medication use, exercise prescription parameters, nutritional status, sleep, and psychosocial influences.
Further research is essential to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of exercise, optimize intervention strategies, and expand our understanding of exercise’s full therapeutic potential in diabetes prevention and management.
We welcome submissions of original research articles and reviews, including narrative, scoping, or systematic reviews, as well as meta-analyses.
