Wearable-supported exercise guidance may improve walking capacity in type 2 diabetes

This study tested monthly physiotherapist-led exercise guidance supported by wearable device feedback in people with type 2 diabetes, including diabetic kidney disease. Over six months, the intervention group walked farther and had lower HbA1c than the standard care group, while kidney filtration did not clearly change.
