AB  - INTRODUCTION: Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have an increased 
      risk of cardiovascular disease, which is worsened by physical inactivity. 
      Subclinical myocardial dysfunction is associated with increased risk of heart 
      failure and impaired prognosis in T2DM; however, it is not clear if exercise 
      training can counteract the early signs of diabetic heart disease. PURPOSE: This 
      study aimed to evaluate the effects of soccer training on cardiac function, 
      exercise capacity, and blood pressure in middle-age men with T2DM. METHODS: 
      Twenty-one men age 49.8 +/- 1.7 yr with T2DM and no history of cardiovascular 
      disease participated in a soccer training group (n = 12) that trained 1 h twice a 
      week or a control group (n = 9) with no change in lifestyle. Examinations 
      included comprehensive transthoracic echocardiography, measurements of blood 
      pressure, maximal oxygen consumption (V( )O(2max)), and intermittent endurance 
      capacity before and after 12 and 24 wk. Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA was 
      applied. RESULTS: After 24 wk of soccer training, left ventricular (LV) 
      end-diastolic diameter and volume were increased (P < 0.001) compared to 
      baseline. LV longitudinal systolic displacement was augmented by 23% (P < 0.001) 
      and global longitudinal two-dimensional strain increased by 10% (P < 0.05). LV 
      diastolic function, determined by mitral inflow (E/A ratio) and peak diastolic 
      velocity E', was increased by 18% (P < 0.01) and 29% (P < 0.001), respectively, 
      whereas LV filling pressure E/E' was reduced by 15% (P = 0.05). Systolic, 
      diastolic, and mean arterial pressures were all reduced by 8 mm Hg (P < 0.01, P < 
      0.001, and P < 0.001, respectively). V( )O(2max) and intermittent endurance 
      capacity was 12% and 42% (P < 0.001) higher, respectively. No changes in any of 
      the measured parameters were observed in control group. CONCLUSION: Regular 
      soccer training improves cardiac function, increases exercise capacity, and 
      lowers blood pressure in men with T2DM.
