About this study

Official title: Effect of Exercise on Novel Insulin Signaling Events in Human Muscle

One of the main objectives of this study will be to assess potential differences in important risk factors associated with Metabolic Syndrome in overweight adults who do not participate in a regular exercise program compared with overweight individuals who do exercise regularly. In addition, we will determine the effects of a single, modest session of exercise on the body's ability to control blood sugar and regulate fat metabolism in obese sedentary adults vs. obese adults who live a physically active lifestyle. Our study focuses on identifying mechanisms responsible for improved insulin action related to regular exercise and to provide novel targets for preventing and treating type 2 diabetes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Insulin Sensitivity

    A hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp will be used to assess peripheral insulin sensitivity. Insulin sensitivity will be calculated from the clamp data as the rate of glucose infusion during the steady state period of the clamp - divided by the plasma insulin concentration at this time (units: mg/uU/ml/min)

    Measured: 2-3 hours

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Resting Metabolic Rate

    Measured: 20-30 min

  2. Meal Tolerance Test

    Measured: 3 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Exercise in people with Obesity, run by University of Michigan 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 21 Mar 2022. 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?

Insulin Sensitivity (time frame: 2-3 hours). 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 21 Mar 2022.
