About this study

Official title: The Effect of Moderate Versus High Intensity Exercise Training on Physical Fitness and Physical Function in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes: A Randomized Clinical Trial

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effect of moderate versus high intensity exercise training on physical fitness and physical function in patients with type 2 diabetes. The research hypothesis is that high intensity exercise training will be superior to moderate intensity on such outcomes in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Being tested
High Intensity Exercise Training, Moderate Intensity Exercise Training
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • High Intensity Exercise TrainingBehavioural

    • High intensity resistance and aerobic training
    • Resistance training is performed 2 days per week for 3 months
    • Aerobic training is performed on the same days as resistance training and 1 additional day per week.
  • Moderate Intensity Exercise TrainingBehavioural

    • Moderate intensity resistance and aerobic training
    • Resistance training is performed on 2 days per week for 3 months.
    • Aerobic training is performed on the same days as resistance training and 1 additional day per week.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High Intensity Exercise Training and Moderate Intensity Exercise Training in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Central Arkansas at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 3 Feb 2014. 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 United States. 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?

Muscle Strength (time frame: Baseline and 3 months thereafter). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01417845, 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 3 Feb 2014.
