About this study

Sleep is an essential biological process for life and great value to functions such as learning, memory processing , cell and brain repair. Recently, new evidence points to the relationship between lack of sleep and carbohydrate metabolism , establishing a framework for insulin resistance observed in studies with restriction and sleep deprivation on several nights and in a single night . To reverse this process , one of the most effective strategies is physical exercise and part listed in the literature as a non-pharmacological tool for prevention and health promotion , as well as in the treatment of some diseases . However , the pace of modern society causes people to practice less physical exercise , lack of time being the main reason . In this scenario, the High Intensity Interval Training ( HIIT ) emerges as a powerful strategy that induces major changes optimizing the time spent on such activity. Considering the benefits of this mode , the purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of high-intensity interval training in the context of insulin resistance observed during sleep deprivation. Will be recruited 20 male volunteers, aged between 18 and 35 years old, healthy, with normal sleep duration equivalent to 7-8 hours / night, not smoking and regular eating habits. They will be submitted to a protocol of 6 sessions of high-intensity interval training for two weeks, and since the end period, sleep normally, or be deprived of sleep for 24 hours. Biochemical (thyroid hormones, cortisol, glucagon, free fatty acid, cholesterol, glucose and insulin) will be undertaken as well as evaluation of body composition by plethysmography, basal metabolic rate by indirect calorimetry and insulin sensitivity through Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) before and after the training period.

What participants receive

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

  • High Intensity Interval TrainingOther

    6 sessions in 2 weeks (Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Each training session will consist of repeated high-intensity efforts in a workload that matches the peak oxygen uptake for 60 seconds. These sprints are interspersed with active recovery for 75 seconds on low intensity (30W). The training sessions will have three minutes of heating in 30W. There will be 8 shots in the first and second session, 10 shots in the third and fourth session and 12 shots in the fifth and sixth session.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline in Blood Glucose

    Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is performed after at least 8 hours of fasting overnight, by oral administration of standard dose of 75g anhydrous glucose dissolved in water (dextrose). The plasma glucose levels are fasting measured (before administration of glucose state) and 30, 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 minutes after administration. Volunteers will be advised to follow the same eating patterns before testing.

    Measured: Change from Baseline in Blood Glucose at 2 weeks of high intensity interval training

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High Intensity Interval Training in people with Insulin Resistance and Sleep Deprivation, run by Federal University of São Paulo.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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 from Baseline in Blood Glucose (time frame: Change from Baseline in Blood Glucose at 2 weeks of high intensity interval 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 8 May 2015.
