Methods
T2DM
HEART
 We performed a nonrandomized study on ten T2DM subjects (age range 44-73 yrs) who were recruited and asked to use a physical activity intervention, a passive simulated jogging device (JD) for 7 days. JD moves the feet in a repetitive and alternating manner; the upward movement of the pedal is followed by a downward movement of the forefoot tapping against a semirigid bumper to simulate the tapping of feet against the ground during jogging. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis was performed using an electrocardiogram in each subject in seated posture on day 1 (baseline, BL), after seven days of JD (JD7), and seven days after discontinuation of JD (Post-JD). Time domain variables were computed, viz., standard deviation of all normal RR intervals (SDNN), standard deviation of the delta of all RR intervals (SD
