| description | Objective: The aim of this study was investigating the effect of 12
weeks of yoga and aerobic exercise (running on a treadmill) on the sleep quality in women
with Type 2 diabetes. MATERIALS AND Methods: 39 diabetic women were selected from Semnan
city with the mean age of 46.85±3.35 years, weight of 69.79±17.18 kg, height of
155.03±5.00, BMI of 29.64±5.00 kg/m2 who had a background of diabetes for
6.46±2.69 years. They were then randomly divided into yoga exercise (n=15), aerobic
exercise (n=13), and control group (n=11). The exercise program was performed for 12 weeks,
three sessions per each week. In order to measure the sleep quality, the Pittsburgh Sleep
Quality Index (PSQI) was used. The data were analyzed by non-parametric wilcoxon and
Kruskal-Wallis Test at significance level of p<0.05. Results: Overall
score of sleep quality improved after six (p=0.001) and 12
(p=0.001) weeks of yoga exercise. Also, significant effect was observed
after 6 weeks of aerobic exercise (p=0.039). However, the positive effect
was diminished to under significant levels after 12 weeks of aerobic exercise
(p=0.154). Kruskal-Wallis Test showed significant differences between
yoga and aerobic groups after 12 weeks of exercise (p=0.002). No
significant differences were observed in control groups in all situation. Conclusions: It
can be concluded that yoga exercise is more effective in improving the sleep quality in
comparison with the same course of aerobic exercise in women suffering from diabetes Type
2. Thus, yoga exercise can be suggested to these patients. |
