Low physical activity is associated with impaired endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes and controls after 5 years of follow-up

Low physical activity is associated with impaired endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes and controls after 5 years of follow-up

Abstract Background The long-term association between physical activity and endothelial function has not previously been investigated in patients with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between physical activity and endothelial function, assessed by peripheral arterial...
