Background: Though a high amount of visceral fat is associated with insulin resistance, which can lead to type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), less is known about whether lifestyle modification (weight loss diet and exercise) induced changes in visceral fat are associated with improvements in glycemia. Methods: We randomized 77 individuals aged 35-65 years with T2D or pre-diabetes to 6-months of weight loss diet (D); or D combined with supervised moderate-intensity exercise training (D+E). Study measures were total abdominal, visceral and subcutaneous fat volumes by magnetic resonance imaging, aerobic fitness expressed as VO 2 peak during treadmill testing, body mass index (BMI), and HbA1c levels from blood samples. Results: Of 77 subjects (mean age, 54.8±7.8 years; mean BMI, 34.5 ± 4.7 kg/m 2 , women, 77.9%; Whites-65%, Blacks-34%, Asians-1%), n=37 had T2D and n=40 had pre-diabetes. At 6 months, both D and D+E groups improved from baseline (p<0.05 for all) but did not differ in their changes for body weight (D: -6.04 ± 4.54 kg; D+E: -6.68 ± 4.48 kg, p= 0.61 for the group differences in change), abdominal total fat (D: -101.93 ± 68.67 cm 2 ; D+E:-104.16 ± 72.37 cm 2 , p= 0.92), visceral fat (D:-25.53 ± 39.44 cm 2 ; D+E:,-23.24 ± 35.62 cm 2 , p=0.85), HbA1c (D:0.04 ± 0.46%; D+E:0.03 ± 0.63%, p=0.96), and VO 2 peak (D: 2.26 ± 3.92 ml/kg/min ; D+E:3.71 ± 2.65 ml/kg/min, p=0.11). In a multivariate analysis, adjusting for baseline visceral fat, T2D status, body weight loss and increases in aerobic fitness, a reduction in HbA1c (β=-0.49, p =0.007) was associated with a reduction in visceral fat (R 2 =0.34, p=0.02). Conclusion: The key finding was that diet or diet plus exercise-mediated reductions in visceral fat was associated with reduced HbA1c among individuals with T2D or pre-diabetes. These data contribute to growing body of evidence of the benefits of reducing abdominal obesity, in this case, resulting in better glycemic control in T2D and pre-diabetes.

Purpose. En Balance, a culturally sensitive diabetes education program, improves glycemic control in Hispanics with type 2 diabetes. The program emphasized diet, physical activity, and other factors important for glycemic control. However, the individual contributions of these education factors are unclear. The purpose of this study is to assess the contribution of physical activity to the success of En Balance in improving the health of Mexican Americans with type 2 diabetes. Methods. A retrospective study was conducted with plasma samples collected pre- and post-3-month study. Samples from 58 (18 males and 40 females) Hispanic subjects with type 2 diabetes were analyzed for the concentration of kynurenines, known to decrease in response to exercise. After three months, health outcomes for the active group (decreased kynurenines) and the rest of the cohort were evaluated by paired Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results. Half of the subjects had increased kynurenine levels at the end of the educational program. We found that the subjects in the active group with decreased kynurenine concentrations displayed statistically greater improvements in fasting blood glucose, A1C, cholesterol, and triglycerides despite weight loss being higher in the group with increased kynurenine concentrations. Conclusions. En Balance participants with decreased kynurenine levels had significantly improved glycemic control. These data suggest that physical activity significantly contributes to the success of the En Balance education program. This analysis indicates that diabetes public health educators should emphasize the benefit of physical activity on glycemic control even in the absence of major weight loss.
