About this study

The purpose of this study is to examine the acute effect of exercise on vascular function in women with nonobstructive coronary artery disease.

Read the detailed description

Women are more likely to have nonobstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) . The purpose of this study is to examine the acute effect of exercise on vascular function in women with nonobstructive coronary artery disease. Endothelium-dependent and -independent dilation, arterial stiffness and wave reflection will be measured at baseline and after walking on a treadmill at a slow pace for 47 minutes. Endothelium-dependent dilation will be measured using brachial artery flow-mediated dilation via high resolution ultrasonography. Endothelium-independent dilation will be measured using brachial artery dilation to sublingual nitroglycerin. Arterial stiffness and wave reflection will measured using applanation tonometry.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in endothelium-dependent dilation

    Brachial artery endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilation to reactive hyperemia will be measured using high resolution ultrasonography. To determine flow-mediated dilation, brachial artery diameter and blood velocity will be measured before and after occluding the forearm for 5 minutes by inflating a cuff to 250 mmHg.

    Measured: Baseline, 15 minutes after exercise and 1 hour after exercise

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in endothelium-independent dilation

    To determine vascular smooth muscle responsiveness to nitric oxide, brachial artery diameter will be measured using high resolution ultrasonography before and after sublingual administration of 0.4mg nitroglycerin.

    Measured: Baseline, 15 minutes after exercise

  2. Change in arterial stiffness and wave reflection

    Aortic pulse wave velocity and augmentation index will be measured using applanation tonometry.

    Measured: Baseline, 15 minutes after exercise and 1 hour after exercise

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Slow-paced walking in people with Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease, 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 Jun 2023. 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 endothelium-dependent dilation (time frame: Baseline, 15 minutes after exercise and 1 hour after exercise). 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 Jun 2023.
