Trial summary

Obesity is a global health problem since it is associated with many cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, osteoarticular problems and some cancers. That is why it is a priority of the national health policies. Exercise is a mainstay in the treatment, but still the most effective method is sought. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of High Intensity Interval Training, Strength Training and the Combination in Overweight and Obese

Obesity is a global health problem since it is associated with many cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, osteoarticular problems and some cancers. That is why it is a priority of the national health policies. Exercise is a mainstay in the treatment, but still the most effective method is sought. The resistance exercise and high intensity intervals (HIIT) have been shown to positively affect the outcome of the disease, increasing the oxidative capacity of the trained subjects. Therefore it is important to look if both together produce greater benefits or otherwise nullify its effects, such as suggested by recent publications in relation to the cellular response to different stimuli such exercise in skeletal muscle. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions exercise high intensity intervals, overload and combining them in the oxidative capacity of obese subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing HIIT and Strength in people with Obesity, run by University of Chile at 1 site in Chile.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jun 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 Chile. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Marcelo Cano, PhD (29786513, mcano@med.uchile.cl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Exercise Test of Vo2 kinetics (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 29 Jun 2015.
