Human skeletal muscle quality and insulin sensitivity: A study to understand the impact of life style intervention in pre diabetics
Project Description
The overarching goal of the study was to increase our understanding of the role of skeletal muscle in the aetiology of type 2 diabetes in the Indian population and to evaluate the efficacy of interventions designed to target improvements in muscle mass, function, and
metabolic potential. A better understanding of the cause (s) of the predisposition of Indians to become diabetic will be very useful in planning healthcare policy and delivery in the coming years, to ensure that the burden of this disease is reduced.
