Impact of obesity and type 2 diabetes on muscle power, quality, and force-velocity, and their relation to functional capacity.
Journal of Diabetes and Metabolic Disorders
Cross-sectional study demonstrating that obesity and T2D impair normalized muscle power and quality in middle-aged adults, with quantified deficits and functional associations, but lacks a comparator intervention and cannot establish causation.
