Abstract
Background: Diabetic foot wound considered as cause of disability in diabetic's patients. And despite the progress made in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes, since diabetic foot problem has not been resolved. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of endurance training and cold plasma on wound healing in diabetic rats.
Methods: 25 male Wistar rats were divided randomly into 5 groups (n=5). The once injected intraperitoneally with a concentration of 40mg/kg of body weight was taken. 4mm punch biopsy wounds were used to create skin wound. The exercise protocol, consists of 60minutes of running on a treadmill at a speed of 25m/min, 5days a week for 4times in a week. The whole process of plasma irradiation on wound took over 8times at each of the plasma samples for 10 minutes under direct radiation at a distance of 20 mm from the tip, respectively. The wound picture was taken with the camera Dino-Lite. Given the normal distribution of data to test hypotheses of parametric tests one-way ANOVA and repeated measure ANOVA were used to determine differences (P≤ 0.05).
Results: The findings showed that the difference between exercise+diabetes group and Ctrl+diabetes group wasn’t significant. In addition, the difference between plasma+diabetes group and Ctrl+diabetes group wasn’t significant. However, the significant difference was between plasma+training+diabetes group and Ctrl+diabetes group.
Conclusion: This is the first time that the combination of exercise and cold plasma used for wound healing in diabetes and have significantly accelerated wound healing in diabetic mice.

Abstract
Background: There are many research have been done so far about the effect of exercise training on diabetic type 2 related risk factors. But in this regard there is no study performed in Iran. So, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of endurance exercise training on some diabetic type 2 dependent variables in the form of systematic review and meta-analysis of studies that were performed in Iran.
Methods: In this research PubMed, Embase, Cochran, Scopus, ISI, Google Scholar, Science direct, Sid and Magiran databases were searched for Persian sources. Data analysis were done using STATA software version 12.0.
Results: Generally, 242 articles were founded in primary search, which 24 articles were included in this research. Finally research were evaluated 592 Iranian's peoples which 294 peoples as a control group (96 male and 198 women) and 298 peoples as a training group (97 male and 201 women).The results indicate that there were significant association between endurance exercise and blood glucose levels (P=0.0001,-1.016,-0.656;95%CI), insulin (P=0.0001,-1.042,-0.682;95%CI), insulin resistance (P=0.0001;-0.563,-0.217;95%CI).
Conclusion: Generally, this systematic review and meta-analysis study was demonstrated endurance exercise could be related with decrease diabetes type 2 related risk factors. So, it is recommended that sport and medicine experts use endurance exercise as a non- pharmacological intervention for treatment of diabetes type 2 patients.

Abstract
Background: Obesity is a disease whose incidence and burden on societies around the world is increasing. Sexual performance in these patients is an important aspect that is often ignored. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of a period of exercise along with electrical stimulation on the gene expression of some sex markers in testicular tissue of fasted obese rats.
Methods: In this experimental study, with a control group of 40 male rats after induction of obesity and weight gain, randomly divided into 5 groups: control, fasting-obese, fasting-endurance exercise, fasting-electrical stimulation and Fasting-endurance training-electrical stimulation were divided. Intervention groups for a period of 4 weeks under endurance sports activity (with a speed of 10 to 20 m/min and duration of 20 to 40 minutes), electrical stimulation (foot shock device for 0.5 mA and 20 minutes) and fasting were placed. After exercise and anesthesia, brain tissue was done and after molecular processes, gene expression was measured using Real time-PCR machine.
Results: The results showed that training led to a significant increase in the expression of 5-alpha reductase and aromatase genes in samples compared to the fasted obese group (P=0.0001). Also, electrical stimulation and its combination with endurance training showed a significant increase in the 5-alpha reductase gene (P=0.0001).
Conclusion: It seems that endurance training and combined electrical stimulation of both during fasting by increasing the expression of 5-alpha reductase and aromatase genes in obese samples are effective in their sexual health and lead to its improvement.
