Breathing muscle strength in adults with type 2 diabetes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at whether people with type 2 diabetes lose strength in their breathing muscles. It will measure muscle function and walking ability to understand how diabetes affects the muscles used for breathing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
- You are clinically stable (not in a medical crisis).
- You can follow instructions and cooperate with the tests (vision, thinking, and ability to work with the team).
- You do not have any neurological or muscle/bone problems that would affect walking or strength testing.
- You do not have severe joint stiffness, painful sores, serious infection, or other conditions like rheumatologic disease, cancer, or pregnancy.

This study tests whether training with a simple breathing device (incentive spirometer) can help people with type 2 diabetes who also have muscle weakness. The goal is to see if it improves strength, breathing, and overall health.
This trial will look at how breathing (respiratory) muscles weaken as people age, a condition called sarcopenia. It aims to better understand age-related muscle loss in a key area that affects daily life, helping identify individuals who might need extra support or exercise programs.
This study looks at muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people 60 and older who have had type 2 diabetes for at least 5 years. It aims to understand how diabetes might affect muscle health.
This trial is studying respiratory sarcopenia—weakness of the breathing muscles—in older adults. It involves simple breathing tests to measure your lung strength.
This study looks at sarcopenia, which is age-related loss of muscle, in people with certain types of heart failure or in people with stable type 2 diabetes but no symptoms. The goal is to better understand muscle changes and what might help people stay stronger.
This study looks at how muscle loss (sarcopenia) in older adults is linked to the strength of arm, leg, and breathing muscles. It may help find ways to keep muscles strong as you age.
