What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Paired difference in the time to complete a time trial corresponding to 5 km cycling between euglycaemia and hyperglycaemia

Secondary outcomes (17)
  1. Muscle glycogen content during exercise in the working muscle (pre test vs. post test), in euglycaemia and hyperglycaemia respectively (All following endpoints are paired differences (euglycaemia vs. hyperglycaemia) of paired differences (pre

  2. IMCL content during exercise in the working muscle

  3. Rate of appearance of glucose

  4. Rate of disappearance of glucose

  5. Rate of glucose infusion

  6. Total glucose oxidation

  7. Oxidation of endogenous glucose

  8. Oxidation of exogenous glucose

  9. Fat oxidation (calculated via tracer and via RER)

  10. Rate of perceived exertion

  11. Serum lactate levels during the exercise test

  12. Amino acid oxidation

  13. Serum free fatty acid concentration

  14. Serum insulin levels

  15. Serum glucose levels

  16. Time to achieve hyperglycemia during clamp

  17. Pretest diary data

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Normoinsulinemic eu- or hyperglycemic clamp in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 and Exercise, run by Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern at 1 site in Switzerland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jan 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Paired difference in the time to complete a time trial corresponding to 5 km cycling between euglycaemia and hyperglycaemia. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00325559, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Jan 2011.
