This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the effects of regular exercise duration on glycaemic and metabolic parameters, insulin resistance, and atherogenic indices in individuals attending a single-family health centre. A total of 403 individuals were divided into three groups based on their exercise status as Group A with no regular exercise, Group B with <150 minutes, and Group C with <= 150 minutes of regular excercise per week. The demographic and clinical data were collected from the subjects' records. The median age in Group A was significantly higher than in Group B and C, the median weight of Group A and B was significantly lower than in Group C, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level was significantly higher in Group B than in C. Type 2 diabetes percentage was significantly higher in Group C compared to B. Other glycaemic and metabolic parameters, insulin-resistance, and atherogenic indices were similar among the three groups. The results of this study indicated that subjects with higher weight, lower HDL levels, and Type 2 diabetes mellitus were those doing regular exercise in the advised duration per week.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessScience & technologyLife sciences & biomedicineMedicine, general & internalGeneral & internal medicineArticle00115019890002313301332331110.29271/jcpsp.2023.11.13301681-7168
