太极拳可能对2型糖尿病患者有益

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - A new study suggests that participation in the Chinese martial art Tai Chi Chuan may help boost immune function and improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes.
纽约(路透社健康频道)-一项新的研究建议,2型糖尿病患者参加中国武术太极拳可能帮助提高免疫能力和改善血糖控制。
After completing a 12-week Tai Chi exercise program, men and women with the disease had statistically significant reductions in their levels of A1C, a measurement of long-term blood glucose control. The participants also showed increases in regulatory T cells, which help to keep the immune response in check, while their levels of killer T cells, which destroy abnormal cells in the body, decreased.
完成了为期12周的太极拳训练程序后,据统计,男女患者的A1C水平都显著降低,长期血糖都得到了控制。参加者同时表现出调控T细胞(有助于保持免疫反应运作)增多,而杀伤性T细胞(破坏体内异常细胞)浓度降低。
People with type 2 diabetes experience chronic inflammation, and while exercise has been shown to be beneficial, strenuous exercise may boost inflammation and cause other problems, Dr. Kuender D. Yang of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan and colleagues note.
台湾长江纪念医院的Kuender D. Yang医生和同事提到,2型糖尿病患者要经历慢性炎症,尽管运动已被证明是有益的,但大强度运动还是有可能会加剧炎症和引发其它问题,。
Tai Chi, in which a person performs a series of poses in a flowing motion, improves balance and heart and lung function, and recently was shown to benefit immune system function in healthy individuals, they add.
他们补充,太极,通过平缓的移动来完成一系列的姿势,能改善平衡和心、肺功能,最近又发现在健康人身上,太极有利于免疫系统功能。

To investigate whether Tai Chi might do the same for diabetic patients, Yang and his team had 32 men and women participate in three hour-long sessions of the martial art each week for 12 weeks.
为了调查太极对糖尿病患者有相同作用,杨和他的团队,32位男性和女性,参加了为期12周,每周3小时的武术课程。
Tai Chi could improve the immune system through its effects on cardiopulmonary health or the martial art might exert its effects by improving glucose metabolism, the researchers note.
研究者记录,太极通过对心肺的影响来增强免疫系统,或者说武术可以通过改善葡萄糖新陈代谢来发挥作用。
They conclude: "An appropriate combination of the Tai Chi Chuan exercise program with diabetic medications may improve both glucose metabolism and immunity of type 2 diabetic patients."
他们认为:“太极拳运动和糖尿病药物疗法的适当结合可以改善2型糖尿病患者的葡萄糖新陈代谢和免疫。”
