About this study

Official title: Mechanisms of Cardiovascular Dysfunction and Effect of Aerobic Exercise Training in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes

The study objectives are:

  1. To compare cardiovascular function in type 2 diabetes patients vs. healthy controls.
  2. To compare the effect of 8 weeks of aerobic interval training versus continuous moderate exercise on cardiovascular function in adults with type 2 diabetes.
  3. To examine the mechanisms underlying the exercise-related changes in cardiovascular function.

The investigators hypothesize that compared to continuous moderate intensity exercise training, interval training will be more effective in improving cardiovascular function in adults with type 2 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Cardiovascular function will be measured at baseline in adults with type 2 diabetes and in age-matched healthy controls. Research volunteers with type 2 diabetes who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized to the aerobic interval training group, continuous moderate exercise group or non-exercise control group. At the end of the 8-week randomized control exercise intervention, baseline measures will be repeated.

Conditions
Type 2 Diabetes
Being tested
High intensity aerobic interval training, Continuous moderate intensity exercise
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 aerobic interval trainingOther

    Supervised aerobic interval training will be performed on bicycles 4 times per week for 8 weeks. Each training session will last 40 minutes and will consist of 10-minute warm up at 70% of maximal heart rate (HRmax), four 4-minute intervals at 90% of HRmax with 3-min active recovery at 70% of HRmax and 5-minute cool down at 70% of HRmax.

  • Continuous moderate intensity exerciseOther

    Supervised exercise training will be performed on bicycles 4 times per week for 8 weeks. Each training session will last 47 minutes and will consist of continuous moderate intensity cycling at 70% of HRmax.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in vascular endothelial function

    Brachial flow mediated dilation using ultrasonography

    Measured: At baseline and after 8 weeks of exercise training

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change in factors related with endothelial function

    Blood and cellular markers of adiponectin, oxidative stress and inflammation.

    Measured: At baseline and after 8 weeks of exercise training

  2. Change in arterial stiffness

    Arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity) and wave reflection (augmentation index) will be measured using the SphygmoCor device.

    Measured: At baseline and after 8 weeks of exercise training

  3. Change in cardiac function

    Left ventricular systolic and diastolic function will be measured using echocardiography.

    Measured: At baseline and after 8 weeks of exercise training

  4. Change in maximal oxygen consumption

    Maximal oxygen consumption will be measured using online computer-assisted open-circuit spirometry during incremental treadmill exercise.

    Measured: At baseline and after 8 weeks of exercise training

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High intensity aerobic interval training and Continuous moderate intensity exercise in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by University of Florida 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 5 inclusion and 14 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 6 Dec 2019. 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?

Change in vascular endothelial function (time frame: At baseline and after 8 weeks of exercise training). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 6 Dec 2019.
