Randomized Controlled TrialThe effect of a 12 week walking intervention on markers of insulin resistance and systemic inflammation.
The purpose of the present study was to determine whether a community-based walking intervention, using pedometers, is effective in reducing systemic inflammatory markers. ⋯ We conclude that the current community-based intervention did not affect systemic markers of inflammation or insulin sensitivity.
