About this study

The overall objective of this study is to examine the blood flow in the thigh muscles and sugar metabolism before and after 8 weeks of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on a bicycle ergometer in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and matched controls. The following parameters are included in the assessment:

  • Sugar Metabolism
  • Muscle and fat mass
  • The blood flow at rest around the thigh muscles
  • Oxygen uptake test on a bicycle ergometer and 5 km time trial
Read the detailed description

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) can be defined as a bihormonal metabolic disorder characterised by insufficient insulin secretion and abnormal glucagon secretion. It is however well established that physical activity per se improves glucose and may postpone or even slow down in the diabetic population. Glycaemic control may be improved more by high intensity interval training than by intensities from existing recommended guidelines. Additionally, there seems to be accumulating evidence that high intensity interval training induces increased overall fat and abdominal fat mass loss as opposed to traditional continuous endurance training Therefore we hypothesise that 3 weekly sessions of high intensity interval training (10×60 sec. at an intensity inducing 90% of maximal heart frequency with a recovery of 60 sec. between each bout) over 8 weeks improves overall glycaemic control (glucose, insulin and glucagon), inflammatory status (interleukins, cytokines, chemokines and cell adhesion molecules) and blood flow (NO and PGI2 vasodilatory capabilities).

What participants receive

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

  • Physical trainingOther

    Performed supervised high intensity interval training 3 times a week over 8 weeks on a bicycle ergometer (with watt meter). During the training period, the trainee individually established program, each time with 10 × 60 sec. workout (interspersed with 60 sec. break) corresponding to a force which during the test cycle induces ~ 90% of the maximum heart rate. The time spent per session is expected to last ~ 25 minutes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Oral Glucose tolerance test (OGTT)

    Change from baseline and 8 weeks in glucose/insulin response from a 2.5 hours oral glucose tolerance test (iAUC) after 8 weeks training

    Measured: baseline and 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physical fitness

    Change from baseline and after 8 weeks in physical fitness level (mL/min x kg) measured with submaximal test using a bicycle ergometer after 8 weeks interval training .

    Measured: baseline and 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Physical training in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Aarhus University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 Feb 2015. 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 Denmark. 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?

Oral Glucose tolerance test (OGTT) (time frame: baseline and 8 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 NCT02333734, 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 2015.
