Table 2 Total, saturated and unsaturated intramyocellular lipid bonds in athletes and Type 2 diabetes patients before and after exercise interventions
From: Comparison of intramyocellular lipid metabolism in patients with diabetes and male athletes
Baseline differences between athletes and type 2 diabetes patients | p-value | Athletes change between baseline and deconditioning | p-value | Patients with type 2 diabetes change between baseline and exercise training | p-value | Difference in changes between athletes and type 2 diabetes patients | p-value | |
