All-cause mortality rate was 30% lower per SD greater METs (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.70; rate difference (RD), -2.71 deaths/1000 person-years).
Improving cardiorespiratory fitness can significantly lower mortality risk in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, BMI, intervention group, and β-blocker use, all-cause mortality rate was 30% lower per SD greater METs (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.70 (95% confidence interval, 0.60 to 0.81); rate difference (RD), -2.71 deaths/1000 person-years (95% confidence interval, -3.79 to -1.63)).
Why this rating
Based on a large randomized clinical trial.
