This study aimed to investigate the effect of 6 weeks' pilates training along with dill supplementation on serum concentrations of nesfatin-1, lipocaline-2, and insulin resistance in females with overweight and obesity.
In this randomized controlled trial study, 45 overweight and obese females are randomly assigned to four groups: Pilates training + dill group (PDG) ( = 12), pilates training + placebo group (PPG) ( = 11), dill supplementation group (DG) ( = 11), and placebo group (PG) ( = 11). Participants of PDG and PPG performed pilates training for 6 weeks (60 min, 3 sessions per week). PDG and DG received dill tablet (three times a day, 6 weeks). Anthropometric measurements, glycemic markers, and blood samples were assessed before (pretest) and after (posttest) 6 weeks of intervention.
Results showed a significant increase in serum concentrations of nesfatin-1 in PDG compared to pretest ( = 0.001). Differences in the serum concentrations of nesfatin-1 in PDG were greater than PPG, DG, and PG ( = 0.01). Furthermore, results found in significant reduction in serum concentrations of lipocalin-2, body mass index (BMI), and waist-hip ratio (WHR) in PDG, PPG, and DG as compared to pretest ( > 0.05). Fasting glucose plasma (FGP) was significantly decreased in all three intervention groups PDG ( < 0.001), PPG ( < 0.001), and DG ( < 0.001) as compared to pretest. Differences in FGP were significantly higher in PDG than PPG, DG, and PG ( = 0.001). A significant reduction was found for insulin only in PDG after 6 weeks of intervention as compared to pretest ( = 0.03). Insulin resistance significantly decreased in PDG ( = 0.03) and PPG ( = 0.04) as compared to pretest. Body fat percent (BFP) was significantly decreased in PDG ( = 0.003), PPG ( = 0.006), and DG ( = 0.01). However, there were no significant inter-group differences in insulin resistance, insulin, serum concentrations of lipocalin-2, BMI, BFP, and WHR after 6 weeks of Pilates training along with dill supplementation ( > 0.05).
We concluded that 6 weeks of Pilates training along with dill may be beneficial for improvements in serum concentrations of nesfatin-1 and FGP.
本研究旨在探讨为期6周的普拉提训练以及莳萝补充剂对超重和肥胖女性血清中内脂素-1、lipocalin-2浓度及胰岛素抵抗的影响。
在这项随机对照试验研究中,45名超重和肥胖女性被随机分为四组:普拉提训练+莳萝组(PDG)(n = 12)、普拉提训练+安慰剂组(PPG)(n = 11)、莳萝补充剂组(DG)(n = 11)和安慰剂组(PG)(n = 11)。PDG组和PPG组的参与者进行为期6周的普拉提训练(60分钟,每周3次)。PDG组和DG组服用莳萝片(每日3次,共6周)。在干预6周前(预测试)和干预6周后(后测试)评估人体测量指标、血糖标志物和血样。
结果显示,与预测试相比,PDG组血清内脂素-1浓度显著升高(P = 0.001)。PDG组血清内脂素-1浓度的差异大于PPG组、DG组和PG组(P = 0.01)。此外,结果发现,与预测试相比,PDG组、PPG组和DG组血清lipocalin-2浓度、体重指数(BMI)和腰臀比(WHR)显著降低(P > 0.05)。与预测试相比,所有三个干预组(PDG组(P < 0.001)、PPG组(P < 0.001)和DG组(P < 0.001))的空腹血糖血浆(FGP)均显著降低。PDG组FGP的差异显著高于PPG组、DG组和PG组(P = 0.001)。与预测试相比,干预6周后仅PDG组胰岛素显著降低(P = 0.03)。与预测试相比,PDG组(P = 0.03)和PPG组(P = 0.04)的胰岛素抵抗显著降低。PDG组(P = 0.003)、PPG组(P = 0.006)和DG组(P = 0.01)的体脂百分比(BFP)显著降低。然而,在进行6周的普拉提训练并补充莳萝后,胰岛素抵抗、胰岛素、血清lipocalin-2浓度、BMI、BFP和WHR在组间无显著差异(P > 0.05)。
我们得出结论,为期6周的普拉提训练以及莳萝补充剂可能有助于改善血清内脂素-1浓度和FGP。
