Effects of Structured Physical Exercise Program and Medication on Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Bangladesh: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Six weeks of physiotherapist-led SPEP added to routine medication improved glycemic control, physical fitness, and quality of life in adults with T2DM. These findings support the feasibility and short-term efficacy of structured exercise in this population. Future studies should assess long-term sustainability and metabolic benefits.

Abstract

Six weeks of physiotherapist-led SPEP added to routine medication improved glycemic control, physical fitness, and quality of life in adults with T2DM. These findings support the feasibility and short-term efficacy of structured exercise in this population. Future studies should assess long-term sustainability and metabolic benefits.
