Purpose Physical activity is an effective therapeutic tool for cardiovascular risk prevention. However, exercise aerobic capacity of patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) has not been thoroughly investigated. Aim of the present study is to evaluate exercise aerobic capacity in patients with T1DM compared to a normal control population. Methods This observational study included 17 T1DM patients and 17 matched healthy volunteers. Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) was conducted on an electronically-braked cycle ergometer. Blood samples were collected for evaluation of glycemia and lactate levels. Results Mean oxygen uptake at peak exercise (V'O-2,O-peak) was significantly lower in T1DM subjects (V'O-2,O-peak T1DM 2200 +/- 132ml/min vs V'O-2,O-peak Healthy subjects of 2659 +/- 120 ml/min p = 0.035). Cardiovascular response analysis did not show statistically significant differences. Respiratory exchange ratio (RER) was significantly higher in healthy subjects at peak exercise and at the first minute of recovery (p = 0.022, p = 0.024). Peak exercise lactate levels were significantly higher in healthy subjects. There was no statistical correlation between CPET results and diabetes-related parameters. Conclusions Patients affected by T1DM have a worse exercise tolerance than normal subjects. The two groups differed by RER which can be greatly influenced by the substrate type utilized to produce energy. Because of the impaired carbohydrate utilization, T1DM subjects may use a larger amount of lipid substrates, such hypothesis could be strengthened by the lower lactate levels found in T1DM group at peak exercise. The lack of correlation between exercise tolerance and disease-related variables suggests that the alterations found could be independent from the glycemic levels.
