Objective:

To investigate the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on glucose metabolism, inflammatory responses, and neurological recovery in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), and to compare these effects with moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT).

Approach:

Key Findings:

• Both HIIT and MICT improved HbA1c, FPG, and HOMA-IR levels compared to the control group.
• HIIT and MICT reduced inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-6, CRP) and promoted recovery of nerve conduction velocities and clinical function.
• HIIT showed more significant improvements in HbA1c, FPG, TNF-α, IL-6, and TCSS scores compared to MICT.

Interpretation:

HIIT and MICT can effectively improve glucose metabolism, reduce chronic inflammation, and enhance nerve function recovery in DPN patients, with HIIT providing superior benefits.

Conclusion:

HIIT is more effective than MICT in improving health outcomes for patients with DPN.
