Trial summary

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 8 weeks of aerobic exercise on serum concentrations of Brain Natriuretic Peptide and C - reactive protein in patients with cardiovascular disease. Patients were divided randomly into two groups: control and experimental aerobic group. Read more about this study

About this study

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 8 weeks of aerobic exercise on serum concentrations of Brain Natriuretic Peptide and C - reactive protein in patients with cardiovascular disease. Patients were divided randomly into two groups: control and experimental aerobic group. This study was done with two - stage blood sampling: at the beginning and at the end of the treatment phase. All subjects were requested to avoid any exercise at least 48 hours before blood sampling. To study Brain Natriuretic Peptide and C - reactive protein changes, 5 milliliters of blood were taken from patient's brachial vein. Blood samples for subsequent measurements were frozen immediately and transported to the Hormone Laboratory for serum separation. The experimental group did the aerobic exercise programs for 8 weeks for 3 sessions per week and the control group did not receive any training. After completion of training, the final blood samplings were performed. Exercise intensity according to the heart rate remained stable until the last week. Brain Natriuretic Peptide and C - reactive protein levels were measured by ELISA tests. All statistical analysis were done using SPSS software (version 16) and at the significance level of p≤ 0.05

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Aerobic exercise in people with Cardiovascular Disease, run by Shiraz University of Medical Sciences.

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 10 May 2016. 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?

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?

Brain Natriuretic Peptide (time frame: 8 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 10 May 2016.
