Yang M, Yue H, Xu Q, Shao S, Chen Y. Pioglitazone reduces serum ketone bodies in sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor-treated non-obese type 2 diabetes: A single-centre, randomized, crossover trial. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:3137-3146. [PMID: 38699792 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15641] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2023] [Revised: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 05/05/2024]
Abstract
AIM To examine the effects of the thiazolidinedione (TZD) pioglitazone on reducing ketone bodies in non-obese patients with T2DM treated with the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor canagliflozin. METHODS Crossover trials with two periods, each treatment period lasting 4 weeks, with a 4-week washout period, were conducted. Participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive pioglitazone combined with canagliflozin (PIOG + CANA group) versus canagliflozin monotherapy (CANA group). The primary outcome was change (Δ) in β-hydroxybutyric acid (β-HBA) before and after the CANA or PIOG + CANA treatments. The secondary outcomes were Δchanges in serum acetoacetate and acetone, the rate of conversion into urinary ketones, and Δchanges in factors related to SGLT2 inhibitor-induced ketone body production including non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs), glucagon, glucagon to insulin ratio, and noradrenaline (NA). Analyses were performed in accordance with the intention-to-treat principle. RESULTS Twenty-five patients with a mean age of 49 ± 7.97 years and a body mass index of 25.35 ± 2.22 kg/m2 were included. One patient discontinued the study during the washout period. Analyses revealed a significant increase in the levels of serum ketone bodies and an elevation in the rate of conversion into urinary ketones after both interventions. However, differernces in levels of ketone bodies (except for acetoacetate) in the PIOG + CANA group were significantly smaller than in the CANA group (219.84 ± 80.21 μmol/L vs. 317.69 ± 83.07 μmol/L, p < 0.001 in β-HBA; 8.98 ± 4.17 μmol/L vs. 12.29 ± 5.27 μmol/L, p = 0.018 in acetone). NEFA, glucagon, glucagon to insulin ratio, and NA were also significantly increased after both CANA and PIOG + CANA treatments; while only NEFAs demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups. Correlation analyses revealed a significant association between the difference in Δchanges in serum NEFA levels with the differences in Δchanges in ketones of β-HBA and acetoacetate. CONCLUSION Supplementation of pioglitazone could alleviate canagliflozin-induced ketone bodies. This benefit may be closely associated with decreased substrate NEFAs rather than other factors including glucagon, fasting insulin and NA.

Determinants of serious health outcome-free status in middle-aged and older people with dysglycaemia: Exploratory analysis of the ORIGIN trial. Diabetes Obes Metab 2024; 26:3272-3280. [PMID: 38747213 DOI: 10.1111/dom.15654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
AIM To assess clinical and biochemical measurements that can identify people with dysglycaemia (i.e. diabetes or pre-diabetes) who remain free of serious outcomes during follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted exploratory analyses using data from the Outcomes Reduction with an Initial Glargine Intervention (ORIGIN) study to identify independent determinants of outcome-free status in 12 537 middle-aged and older adults with prediabetes and early type 2 diabetes from 40 countries. Serious outcome-free status was defined as the absence of major cardiovascular outcomes, kidney or retinal outcomes, peripheral artery disease, dementia, cancer, any hospitalization, or death during follow-up. RESULTS In total, 3328 (26.6%) participants remained free of serious outcomes during a median follow-up of 6.2 years (IQR 5.8, 6.7). Independent clinical determinants of outcome-free status included younger age, female sex, non-White ethnicity, shorter diabetes duration, absence of previous cardiovascular disease, current or former smokers, higher grip strength, Mini-Mental State Examination score, and ankle-brachial index, lower body mass index and kidney disease index, and non-use of renin-angiotensin system drugs and beta-blockers. In a subset of 8401 people with baseline measurements of 238 biomarkers, growth differentiation factor 15, kidney injury molecule-1, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, uromodulin, C-reactive protein, factor VII and ferritin were independent determinants. The combination of clinical determinants and biomarkers best identified participants who remained outcome-free (C-statistics 0.71, 95% confidence interval 0.70-0.73; net reclassification improvement 0.55, 95% confidence interval 0.48-0.58). CONCLUSIONS A set of routinely measured clinical characteristics and seven protein biomarkers identify middle-aged and older people with prediabetes or early type 2 diabetes as least likely to experience serious outcomes during follow-up.

Abstract
AIM To explore the individual response to a multimodal intervention on quality of life (QOL) and disability. METHODS 843 (77.83 years, 50.65 % men) prefrail and frail individuals ≥ 70 years with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants were randomized to the usual care group (UCG) or the multicomponent intervention (IG). Intervention consisted in 16-week progressive resistance training program, 7 educational sessions and the achievement of HbA1c (7-8 %, 53-64 mmol/mol)) and BP (<150 mmHg) targets. QOL (EuroQol EQ-5D-5L), basic (Barthel Index, BI) and instrumental (Lawton and Brody Index) activities of daily living (ADL) were assessed. Multivariate binomial and multinomial logistic regression models were used to explore the effect of the IG, and adherence on the outcomes studied. RESULTS The IG was associated with a significant higher probability of improvement in the QOL [OR(95 %CI): 1.75 (1.20, 2.54), p-value 0.004] and a lower probability of deterioration in QoL [0.61 (0.87, 0.54), 0.006] and Barthel Index [0.59 (0.37, 0.93), 0.023]. A high adherence (≥93 %) was needed to achieve benefits in the QOL while > 84.38 % was needed for achieving the benefits in Barthel Index. CONCLUSIONS IG has proven to be effective in increasing QOL and avoiding the worsening of QOL and basic ADL.

das Neves BE, da Silva NCB. Effects of Ayurvedic practices on quality of life of health professionals in Brazil: trends from a quasi experimental study. J Ayurveda Integr Med 2024; 15:100932. [PMID: 38925044 PMCID: PMC11255367 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaim.2024.100932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Integral health encompasses the way individuals live, considering their quality of life. An inadequate lifestyle can harm human health, increasing the risk of developing chronic non-communicable diseases, which represent 71% of the causes of death worldwide and 54.7% in Brazil. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to impacts on quality of life, resulting from lifestyle changes, especially among health professionals. This constitutes an important factor in the health-disease relationship and the core of the healthcare approach embraced by Ayurveda. The present study evaluated the role of daily Ayurvedic practices in improving the quality of life of health professionals working in the Family Health Strategy of SUS in Paty do Alferes/RJ, Brazil. Ayurveda practices based on Trayopastamba were introduced to 30 health professionals through lectures and guided activities from July to October 2021, spanning three months. Quality of life was assessed using the WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire before and after the intervention. An improvement in perceived quality of life was observed in the physical, psychological, and environmental domains (p > 0.05), while the social domain did not show statistically significant results. The physical domain demonstrated the most substantial score increase (10.95). Conversely, the social domain displayed the smallest rise in scores (5.83). In conclusion, the daily Ayurvedic practices demonstrated the potential to enhance the quality of life in this group, contributing to health promotion in a practical and economically accessible manner.

Abstract
Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disorder marked by elevated blood glucose levels, is increasingly prevalent globally, significantly impacting health-related quality of life. Type 2 diabetes (T2DM), characterized by insulin resistance and inadequate insulin production, presents a substantial public health challenge, necessitating comprehensive management strategies. Conventional treatments, including lifestyle modifications and pharmacotherapy, are essential for glycemic control and preventing complications. However, adherence to these treatments is often limited, highlighting the need for alternative strategies. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) offers potential cost-effective and accessible approaches for managing T2DM. Key herbal remedies like cinnamon, fenugreek, and bitter melon, along with dietary supplements like chromium, magnesium, and vanadium, have shown promise in glycemic control. Mind-body therapies, including yoga, tai chi, and meditation, contribute to improved hemoglobin A1c and fasting blood glucose levels. Research supports the integration of CAM with conventional therapies, demonstrating enhanced clinical efficacy and reduced economic burden. However, challenges such as standardization, quality control, and potential risks of herbal medicines need careful consideration. Regulatory frameworks and ethical considerations are essential to ensure patient safety and informed decision-making. Patient education and effective communication between healthcare providers and patients are crucial for integrating CAM into diabetes management. Empowerment-based interventions and collaborative approaches can enhance self-management skills and clinical outcomes. Overall, integrating CAM with conventional treatments offers a holistic approach to managing T2DM, potentially improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) conveys additional cardiometabolic benefit to an intensive lifestyle therapy (LT) in older men with obesity and hypogonadism remains unclear. OBJECTIVE To determine whether TRT augments the effect of LT on metabolic outcomes in older men with obesity and hypogonadism. DESIGN Secondary analysis of a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. SETTING Veterans Affairs Medical Center. PARTICIPANTS 83 older (age ≥ 65 years) men with obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) and persistently low AM testosterone (< 10.4 nmol/L) associated with frailty. INTERVENTIONS LT (weight management and exercise training) plus either testosterone (LT+TRT) or placebo (LT+Pbo) for six months. OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcome was change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). Secondary outcomes included changes in other glucometabolic and lipid profile components, liver enzymes, inflammatory markers, adipokines; subcutaneous, visceral, intramuscular, and hepatic fat; blood pressure, and metabolic syndrome score. RESULTS HbA1c decreased similarly in LT+TRT and LT+Pbo groups (-0.5% vs. -0.6%, respectively; p= 0.35). While TRT showed no synergistic effect with LT on ameliorating secondary outcomes, it eliminated the augmentative effect of LT on high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration (5.4 ± 1.0 mg/dL in LT+Pbo group vs. 0.2 ± 1.1 mg/dL in LT+TRT group, p= 0.01) and adiponectin levels (-408 ± 489 ng/mL in TRT+LT group vs 1832 ± 468 ng/mL in LT+Pbo group, p= 0.02). CONCLUSION In older men with obesity and hypogonadism, adding TRT for six months to LT does not result in further improved cardiometabolic profiles, and could potentially blunt some of the metabolic benefits induced by LT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess risk factors and factors associated with nonachievement of the treatment target levels among 75-year-old Finns with type 2 diabetes (T2D). DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Outpatient. SUBJECTS Seventy-five-year-old participants of the Turku Senior Health Clinic Study (N = 1296) with T2D (n = 247). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Nonachievement of fasting blood glucose (FBG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), and blood pressure (BP) levels set by the national treatment guidelines. RESULTS Nonachievement rates of FBG, BP and LDL-C were 47%, 85%, and 47%, respectively. Non-usage of T2D medication was negatively (adjusted OR 0.38, 95% CI 0.16-0.88) and central obesity positively (1.88, 1.09-3.24) related to nonachievement of FBG target level; alcohol use was positively (3.71, 1.04-13.16) and decreased self-rated health negatively (0.34, 0.12-0.97) related to the nonachievement of BP target level. Nonachievement of LDL-C target level was positively related to poor financial status (3.50, 1.19-10.28) and non-use of lipid-lowering medication (7.70, 4.07-14.56). CONCLUSIONS Nonachievement rates of the national treatment goals were high among older T2D patients, and nonachievement was related to use of medication, obesity, alcohol use, poor health, and poor financial status. We emphasize the importance of customized target setting by risk factor levels and active treatment.

Abstract
(1) Background: high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that play an important role in preventing the development of atherosclerotic lesions and possibly also diabetes. In turn, both type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are susceptible to having deleterious effects on these HDL functions. The objectives of the present review are to expound upon the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functions of HDLs in both diabetes in the setting of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases and discuss the contributions of these HDL functions to the onset of diabetes. (2) Methods: this narrative review is based on the literature available from the PubMed database. (3) Results: several antioxidant functions of HDLs, such as paraoxonase-1 activity, are compromised in T2D, thereby facilitating the pro-atherogenic effects of oxidized low-density lipoproteins. In addition, HDLs exhibit diminished ability to inhibit pro-inflammatory pathways in the vessels of individuals with T2D. Although the literature is less extensive, recent evidence suggests defective antiatherogenic properties of HDL particles in T1D. Lastly, substantial evidence indicates that HDLs play a role in the onset of diabetes by modulating glucose metabolism. (4) Conclusions and perspectives: impaired HDL antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functions present intriguing targets for mitigating cardiovascular risk in individuals with diabetes. Further investigations are needed to clarify the influence of glycaemic control and nephropathy on HDL functionality in patients with T1D. Furthermore, exploring the effects on HDL functionality of novel antidiabetic drugs used in the management of T2D may provide intriguing insights for future research.

Effect of exercise interventions based on family management or self-management on glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2023; 15:232. [PMID: 37957775 PMCID: PMC10644553 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-023-01209-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most studies about exercise interventions for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have been conducted in hospitals or labs, but it is unclear whether study findings from this specific condition can be generalised to real-life T2DM communities. If patients with T2DM can exercise on their own or with family members, it may also reduce the need for patient supervision by medical staff, thereby reducing the burden of medical treatment and improving condition management's cost-effectiveness and practicability. Much of the current research on exercise interventions for T2DM was focused on the type of exercise and less on the mode of management, so we aimed to examine the effect of exercise interventions based on family management or self-management on glycaemic control in patients with T2DM. METHODS Articles were searched from eight Chinese and English databases. Randomized control trials (RCTs) published in English and Chinese, from inception to October 17, 2022, were included in this review. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using the RCT risk of bias assessment tool provided by the Cochrane Collaboration's tool. Meta-analysis was performed using Rev Man 5.4 and Stata 15.0 software. Heterogeneity was investigated using sensitivity analysis and subgroup analyses. Publication bias was tested by funnel plot and Egger's asymmetry tests. RESULTS A total of 10 studies with a total of 913 subjects were finally included in this review. The Meta-analysis showed that exercise interventions based on family management or self-management were more effective than control groups in reducing HbA1c (Z = 3.90; 95% CI MD = - 0.81; - 1.21 to - 0.40; P < 0.0001), fasting glucose (Z = 4.63; 95% CI MD = - 1.17; - 1.67 to - 0.68; P < 0.00001), 2-h plasma glucose (Z = 5.53; 95% CI MD = - 1.84; - 2.50 to - 1.19; P < 0.00001), and Low-density lipoproteins levels (Z = 3.73; 95% CI MD = - 0.38; - 0.58 to - 0.18; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS Exercise interventions based on family management or self-management can significantly reduce glycosylated haemoglobin, fasting glucose, 2-h plasma glucose, and Low-density lipoproteins levels in patients with T2DM, which can effectively delay disease progression and reduce the risk of developing complications. In the future, for exercise interventions based on family or self-management, this review recommended that exercise intervention programmes should be formulated according to 30-60 min per session, more than three times per week, for more than six months of aerobic exercise or aerobic combined with resistance exercise.

Abstract
Aging is one of the most important factors associated with the dramatic increase in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) globally. In addition to traditional micro- and macrovascular complications, diabetes mellitus (DM) in older adults is of great importance due to its independent relationship with frailty, which is defined as a decline in functional reserves and vulnerability to stressors. Frailty assessment enables the determination of biological age, thus predicting potential complications in older adults and identifying tailored treatment strategies. Although the latest guidelines have acknowledged the frailty concept and provided recommendations specific to this subgroup of older adults, frail older adults are particularly considered only as anorexic, malnourished people for whom relaxed treatment targets should be set. However, this approach bypasses other metabolic phenotypes in the context of diabetes and frailty. Recently, a spectrum of metabolic phenotypes in the context of frailty in DM was suggested, and the two edges of this spectrum were defined as "anorexic malnourished (AM)" and "sarcopenic obese (SO)." These two edges were suggested to require different strategies: Opposite to the AM phenotype requiring less stringent targets and de-intensification of treatments, tight blood glucose control with agents promoting weight loss was recommended in the SO group. Our suggestion is that, regardless of their phenotype, weight loss should not be the primary goal in DM management in older adults who are overweight or obese, because of the increased malnutrition prevalence in older adults suffering from DM compared with standard older adults. Furthermore, overweight older adults have been reported to have the lowest risk of mortality compared with other groups. On the other hand, obese older individuals may benefit from intensive lifestyle interventions including caloric restriction and regular exercise with the assurance of at least 1 g/kg/day high-quality protein intake. Besides metformin (MF), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) or glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) should be considered in appropriate SO cases, due to high evidence of cardiorenal benefits. MF should be avoided in the AM phenotype due to their weight loss property. Although weight loss is not desired in AM phenotype, SGLT-2i may still be preferred with close follow-up in certain individuals demonstrating high cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Of note, SGLT-2i should be considered earlier in the diabetes treatment in both groups due to their multiple benefits, i.e., organ protective effects, the potential to reduce polypharmacy, and improve frailty status. The concept of different metabolic phenotypes in frail older adults with diabetes once again shows "one size fits all" cannot be applied in geriatric medicine, and a tailored, individualized approach should be adopted to get the highest benefit from treatments.

Abstract
Diabetes prevalence is increasing rapidly in older people, and sarcopenia is prevalent as a novel complication, particularly in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Therefore, sarcopenia prevention and treatment in these people is necessary. Diabetes accelerates sarcopenia through several mechanisms, such as hyperglycemia, chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. The effects of diet, exercise, and pharmacotherapy on sarcopenia in patients with T2DM need to be considered. In diet, low intake of energy, protein, vitamin D, and ω-3 fatty acid are associated with sarcopenia risk. In exercises, although intervention studies in people, especially older and non-obese patients with diabetes, are few, accumulating evidence shows the usefulness of exercise, particularly resistance exercise for muscle mass and strength, and aerobic exercise for physical performance in sarcopenia. In pharmacotherapy, certain classes of anti-diabetes compounds have possibility of preventing sarcopenia. However, much data on diet, exercise, and pharmacotherapy were obtained in obese and non-elderly patients with T2DM, demanding actual clinical data on non-obese and older patients with diabetes.

Abstract
In developed countries, aging is often seen as typical, but it is made complicated by many disorders and co-morbidities. Insulin resistance seems to be an underlying pathomechanism in frailty and metabolic syndromes. The decline in insulin sensitivity leads to changes in the oxidant-antioxidant balance and an accelerated inflammatory response, especially by adipocytes and macrophages in adipose tissue, as well as muscle mass density. Thus, in the pathophysiology of syndemic disorders-the metabolic syndrome and frailty syndrome-an extremely important role may be played by increased oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory state. Papers included in this review explored available full texts and the reference lists of relevant studies from the last 20 years, before the end of 2022; we also investigated the PubMed and Google Scholar electronic databases. The online resources describing an elderly population (≥65 years old) published as full texts were searched for the following terms: "oxidative stress and/or inflammation", "frailty and/or metabolic syndrome". Then, all resources were analyzed and narratively described in the context of oxidative stress and/or inflammation markers which underlie pathomechanisms of frailty and/or metabolic syndromes in elderly patients. So far, different metabolic pathways discussed in this review show that a similar pathogenesis underlies the development of the metabolic as well as frailty syndromes in the context of increased oxidative stress and acceleration of inflammation. Thus, we argue that the syndemia of the syndromes represents two sides of the same coin.

Effect of calorie restriction in comparison to usual diet or usual care on remission of type 2 diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Am J Clin Nutr 2023; 117:870-882. [PMID: 36972801 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.03.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited evidence is available about the dose-dependent effects of calorie restriction in patients with type 2 diabetes. OBJECTIVE To gather available evidence on the effect of calorie restriction on management of type 2 diabetes. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed, Scopus, CENTRAL, Web of Science, and gray literature to November 2022 for randomized trials longer than 12 weeks looking at the effect of a pre-specified calorie-restricted diet on remission of type 2 diabetes. We performed random-effects meta-analyses to estimate the absolute effect (risk difference) at 6-month (6±3 months) and 12-month (12±3 months) follow-ups. We performed dose-response meta-analyses to estimate mean difference (MD) for the effects of calorie restriction on cardiometabolic outcomes. We used the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach to judge the certainty of evidence. RESULTS 28 randomized trials with 6281 participants were included. Using a remission definition of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) <6.5% without antidiabetic medication use, calorie-restricted diets increased remission by 38 more per 100 patients (95%CI: 9 more, 67 more; n=5 trials, GRADE=moderate) at 6-month, and by 13 more per 100 patients (95%CI: 10 more, 18 more; n=4, GRADE=moderate) at 12-month in comparison to usual diet or usual care. Using a definition of HbA1c<6.5% after at least two months cessation of antidiabetic medications, remission increased by 34 more per 100 patients (95%CI: 15 more, 53 more; n=1, GRADE=very low) at 6-month and by 16 more per 100 patients (95%CI: 4 more, 49 more; n=2, GRADE=low) at 12-month. At 6-month, each 500 kcal/day decrease in energy intake resulted in clinically meaningful reductions in body weight (MD: -6.33 kg, 95%CI: -7.76, -4.90; n=22; GRADE=high) and HbA1c (MD: -0.82%, 95%CI: -1.05, -0.59; n=18, GRADE=high), which attenuated remarkably at 12-month. CONCLUSIONS Calorie-restricted diets may be effective interventions for type 2 diabetes remission, especially when coupled with an intensive lifestyle modification program.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Along with the marked increase in the population of older adults with obesity is the need for effective strategies to treat aging- and obesity-related complications. This review highlights recent progress in obesity management in older adults. RECENT FINDINGS Although calorie restriction is needed to significantly reduce fat mass, an exercise protocol is crucial to ameliorate functional outcomes. The addition of a resistance exercise protocol improves the response of muscle protein synthesis to anabolic stimuli, preventing the calorie restriction-induced reduction in muscle and bone mass. The addition of an aerobic exercise protocol improves cardiorespiratory fitness and cognitive function. However, the addition of both aerobic and resistance exercise protocols to calorie restriction provides the greatest improvements in myocellular quality, frailty, and cardiometabolic and cognitive outcomes, translating into the greatest improvement in quality of life. Such comprehensive lifestyle intervention effectively improves glucometabolic control and age-relevant outcomes in older adults with diabetes. When combined with testosterone therapy, such lifestyle intervention also preserves muscle and bone mass in older, men with obesity and hypogonadism. SUMMARY We conclude that calorie restriction among older adults with obesity should be prescribed in combination with both aerobic and resistance exercise to maximize benefits on overall health.
