What is being measured

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

  1. Inflammatory profile

    C-reactive protein (CRP) (mg/dL)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment)

  2. Inflammatory profile

    Interleukin 6 (IL-6) (ng/mL)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment)

  3. Inflammatory profile

    Interleukin 10 (IL-10) pg/mL, Interleukin-1B (IL-1B) pg/mL, Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α (pg/mL), Adiponectin (pg/mL), Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) (pg/mL), Leptin (pg/mL)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment)

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Body Composition and Anthropometric profile

    Body weight (kg), Fat free mass (FFM) (kg), fat mass (FM) (kg)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  2. Body Composition and Anthropometric profile

    Body Mass Index (BMI) (kg/m²)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  3. Body Composition and Anthropometric profile

    Waist circumference (cm), hip circumference (cm)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  4. Body Composition and Anthropometric profile

    Body Adiposity Index (BAI) and Waist-To-Hip Ratio (WHR)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  5. Insulin sensitivity

    Insulin sensitivity was estimated using homeostasis model assessment index (HOMA)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  6. Lipid profile

    Lipid profile was assessed by measuring levels of triglyceride (TG) (mg/dL), total cholesterol (CT) (mg/dL), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (mg/dL) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (mg/dL)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  7. Cardiorespiratory Fitness (CRF)

    CRF was assessed by measuring Peak Oxygen uptake (VO2peak) mL/kg/min

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  8. Blood Pressure (BP)

    Blood Pressure (mmHg) was assessed by measuring rest levels of Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and Diastolic blood pressure (DBP)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  9. Resting Energy Expenditure (REE)

    Resting Energy Expenditure (kcal/day) was measured through indirect calorimetry with an open-circuit ventilated-hood system Substrate oxidation rate was calculated from VO2 (mL/min) and VCO2 (mL/min)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

  10. Substrate oxidation rate

    Substrate oxidation rate was calculated from VO2 (mL/min) and VCO2 (mL/min)

    Measured: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment) ]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CTR, MICT and HIIT in people with Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome, run by University of Sao Paulo.

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 14 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 24 Jan 2018. 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?

Inflammatory profile (time frame: 8 weeks (baseline to 8 week follow-up assessment)). The study lists 3 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 24 Jan 2018.
