High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has recently received much attention as a new option for aerobic training. Despite its smaller time requirement, HIIT has been reported to have a greater effect than continuous moderate-intensity training on fat loss, especially a decrease in truncal adiposity. We therefore examined whether long-term HIIT preferentially modulates truncal adiposity rather than peripheral adiposity, especially thigh adiposity, where local muscle energy consumption increased profoundly during HIIT. We also examined the association between changes in adipose tissue distribution and serum adiponectin level. Twelve healthy male participants (28-48 years old) were assigned to a group that performed HIIT using only a leg ergometer (L-HIIT, n = 7) or to a group that performed HIIT using both leg and arm ergometers (LA-HIIT, n = 5) twice weekly for 16 weeks. The training programs consisted of 8 to 12 sets of >90% VO2 peak for 1 min, with 1 min of very light active recovery. Body composition analyses as well as aerobic fitness and measurements of serum adiponectin were performed at baseline and after intervention. A linear improvement in aerobic fitness was observed along with a decrease in leg fat (5.4 ± 1.7 vs. 5.1 ± 1.7 kg, p < 0.05) near the main working muscles during HIIT in the combined (L+LA-HIIT) group. Moreover, there was an association of decrease in leg fat or thigh adiposity with improvement in aerobic fitness in the combined group (ρ = -0.59, p < 0.05; and ρ = -0.71, p < 0.05, respectively). Visceral adiposity was decreased in L-HIIT (115 ± 45 vs. 100 ± 47 cm2, p < 0.05), however no decrease was observed in total fat or truncal fat in either group. No change was observed in serum adiponectin concentration in either group. Changes in serum adiponectin were associated with changes in visceral adiposity in the combined group (ρ = -0.72, p < 0.01). Regional rather than whole-body fat loss was observed after a 16-week HIIT program.

Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disease and most patients with type 2 diabetes eventually need insulin therapy. The objective of this study was to clarify C-peptide immunoreactivity (CPR), a marker of beta cell function, as a predictor of requirement for insulin therapy. We conducted a retrospective study of 579 consecutive subjects with type 2 diabetes who were admitted to our hospital from 2000 to 2007 and were able to be followed up for at least 6 months after discharge. Fasting and postprandial serum CPR and urinary CPR levels had been measured during admission. Information about insulin therapy at the last visit was obtained from medical records. At the last visit, 364 subjects (62.9%) were treated with insulin. Mean interval between discharge and the last visit was 4.5 ± 2.3 years. Serum and urine CPR levels at baseline were significantly associated with insulin treatment at the last visit (P

The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between baseline beta cell function and future glycated albumin (GA) to glycated hemoglobin ratio (GA/HbA1c) in patients with type 2 diabetes. In our retrospective cohort, 210 type 2 diabetic patients who had been admitted to our hospital and in whom HbA1c and GA had been measured at baseline and 2 years after admission were included in this study. Baseline beta cell function was assessed by postprandial C-peptide immunoreactivity index (PCPRI) during admission. With intensification of treatment during admission, HbA1c and GA were significantly decreased 1 year and 2 years after admission. While baseline HbA1c was not significantly correlated with HbA1c after 2 years, baseline GA/HbA1c was strongly correlated with GA/HbA1c after 2 years (r = 0.575, P <0.001). When the patients were divided into two groups according to median PCPRI, patients with low PCPRI showed higher GA/HbA1c both at baseline and after 2 years compared to those with high PCPRI. There was a significant negative correlation between PCPRI and GA/HbA1c after 2 years (r = -0.379, P <0.001). Multiple regression analysis revealed that PCPRI was an independent predictor of GA/HbA1c after 2 years. In conclusion, our findings suggest that lower beta cell function is associated with sustained higher GA/HbA1c ratio in patients with type 2 diabetes.
