About this study

Official title: Effects of Aerobic Interval Training on Clinical Biomarkers and Quality of Life in Metabolic Syndrome

The present study aimed to determine the effects of 16 weeks of aerobic interval training on quality of life and a set of clinical biomarkers.

Read the detailed description

Besides the traditional metabolic syndrome risk factors (dyslipidemia, raised blood pressure, central obesity and dysglycemia) subclinical disorders related to chronic inflammation and cell damage have been reported on metabolic syndrome. Therefore, regarding the systemic feature of metabolic syndrome, we investigated an new approach of aerobic interval training on several clinical biomarkers widely used. Such training used differs from current aerobic protocols in order to attenuate metabolic and musculoskeletal overload on untrained and unhealthy subjects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Aerobic interval training in people with Metabolic Syndrome, run by Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho.

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 2 inclusion and 5 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 30 Jan 2017. 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?

Pro-inflammatory marker (time frame: 16 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 30 Jan 2017.
