Impact of diabetes on muscle mass, muscle strength, and exercise tolerance in patients after coronary artery bypass grafting

Abstract: Background: The impact of diabetes mellitus (DM) on muscle mass, muscle strength, and exercise tolerance in patients who had undergone coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has not been fully elucidated. Methods: We enrolled 329 consecutive patients who received cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after CABG (DM group, n = 178; non-DM group, n = 151) and measured lean body weight, mid-upper arm muscle area (MAMA), and handgrip power (HGP) at the beginning of CR. We also performed an isokinetic strength test of the kn… Show more

“…However, why the baseline use of insulin therapy predicted IADL impairment is unclear. It seems likely that the muscle strength might be lower in patients receiving insulin treatment, or that the administration of insulin therapy might affect the quality of life of the aged patients, which might cause difficulties in maintaining their instrumental independence, intellectual activity and normal social roles 40 …”

“…Briefly, after the screening session, all participants visited our institute three times for baseline evaluation. At the first or second visit, each participant underwent OGTT or peak oxygen uptake test as described previously 10, 35 . The participants were instructed to quit regular exercise for 10 days before the third visit and the mean daily physical activity level was evaluated over 7 days with an accelerometer (Lifecorder; Suzuken, Nagoya, Japan).…”

“…After a 3-min rest period, a warm-up was performed for 3 minutes at 40 W, followed by ramp loading (15–30 W/min) until the subjective exhaustion, as described previously [22]. According to the ATS/ACCP guidelines, AT was determined by V-slope method.…”
