About this study

Official title: Influence of Walking on Spontaneous Physical Activity and on Lipid Oxidation Following Dietary Treatment of Obesity

The purpose of this study is to determine whether walking exercise after dietary treatment of obesity is associated with a decrease of the daily spontaneous physical activity and\or with an increase of the time spent in sedentary activities. Our hypothesis is that the practice of walking as an exercise during the phase of weight stability following the dietary treatment of obesity leads to a reduction of spontaneous physical activity and\or to an increase in the time spent in sedentary activities.

Read the detailed description

The subjects of this study will be randomised in 2 groups:

A group with usual follow-up and a group with usual follow-up associated with recommendations to introduce a program of walking achieving gradually 2000-2500 kcal/week.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2008. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact David JACOBI, MD (+33247474727, jacobi@med.univ-tours.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Daily time of moderate physical activity, inactivity and total physical activity measured by a portable monitor of physical activity (time frame: 10 weeks). 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 NCT00775970, which also lists 11 linked publications.

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?
