Abstract:
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has become a significant public health problem affecting the health of our population. Physical inactivity is a significant risk factor for the occurrence and development of major chronic diseases, including T2DM, and appropriate physical activity patterns and levels have positive implications for the prevention and treatment of T2DM. This paper reviews the progress and results of domestic and international studies on the relationship between physical activity and the occurrence, development, and mortality of T2DM in recent years to support the improvement of strategies and measures for the prevention and management of diabetes in general and high-risk populations in China.
