Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 34 elderly women in Khorramabad city in 2019. One week before performing physical fitness tests, blood sample was taken in fasting state to measure serum levels of glucose, irisin, HbA1c and BDNF. Five days before doing the study, the subjects were familiarized with the method of performing the tests. Then, on the day of the study, some physical fitness tests special for the elderly were performed. Data were analyzed by Independent t-test and Pearson correlation coefficient test. P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: There was no significant difference between the diabetic and non-diabetic groups in all physical fitness variables (p>0.05). However, all physiologic variables showed a significant difference (p |
