Nordic walking decreased circulating chemerin and leptin concentrations in middle-aged men with impaired glucose regulation
31 Mar 2025
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of exercise intervention on adipokine profile, glycemic control, and risk factors of the metabolic syndrome (MeS) in men with impaired glucose
regulation (IGR).
Leptin concentrations decreased in the NW group compared to both other groups. In the NW group also body fat percentage, fatty liver index (FLI), and total and LDL cholesterol concentrations decreased compared to the RT group. Nordic walking intervention seems to decrease chemerin and leptin levels, and subjects in this intervention group achieved the most benefi cial eff ects on components of MeS.
