![]() Moreover, significant reduction in C-P levels was observed after 12-week tai chi practice ( p = 0.004). After the 12-week intervention, there were significant influences on HbA1C ( F 2,83 = 4.88, p = 0.010) and C-P levels ( F 2,83 = 3.64, p = 0.031). During the training process, 16 of the 103 participants dropped out. Three biochemical measures, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), and C-peptide (C-P) levels, assessed at baseline and 12 weeks, served as the primary outcome measures. ![]() The study included 103 eligible participants, who were randomized to participate for 12 weeks, in one of the following intervention groups for the treatment of T2DM: fitness qigong, tai chi, and control group. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of qigong and tai chi intervention in middle-aged and older adults with T2DM. ![]() However, the quantitative evaluation of these interventions is limited. Currently, qigong and tai chi exercises are the two most common preventive as well as therapeutic interventions for chronic metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). ![]()
