What participants receive

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

  • Resistance exerciseBehavioural

    Progressive resistance exercise training, 3 times a week for 12 weeks.

  • Usual careBehavioural

    Participants in this arm will receive a brochure specific for type 2 diabetes mellitus about the general principles of exercise, nutrition, and diet. They are asked to maintain their activity level.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximal muscle strength

    This outcome measure includes upper and lower body maximal muscle strength.

    Measured: Twelve weeks

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Physical body function

    This outcome will be assessed by one minute sit-to-stand test and timed "Up and Go" test.

    Measured: Twelve weeks

  2. Quality of life

    This outcome measure will be assessed by the diabetes-specific questionnaire.

    Measured: Twelve weeks

  3. Waist circumference

    Measured: Twelve weeks

  4. Body mass index

    This outcome measure includes the measurements of body height and body weight.

    Measured: Twelve weeks

  5. Functional capacity

    Peak oxygen consumption will be determined by graded exercise test to assess functional capacity.

    Measured: Twelve weeks

  6. Blood biochemical parameters

    This outcome measure includes the analysis of fasting glucose, glycated hemoglobin, lipid profile, C-reactive protein, and related metabolites.

    Measured: Twevle weeks

  7. Muscle oxygenation

    Muscle oxygenation will be assessed during exercise

    Measured: Twelve weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Resistance exercise in people with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 16 Nov 2012. 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 Taiwan. 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?

Maximal muscle strength (time frame: Twelve 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 NCT01638351, which also lists 4 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Nov 2012.
