About this study

Official title: Effects of Different Intensities and Durations of Aerobic Exercise Training and Detraining on Metabolic, Hormonal Responses and Abdominal Obesity in Women With Metabolic Syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Objective: To show metabolic and hormonal responses and effects on abdominal obesity of aerobic exercise in different intensity and duration and detraining period in women with metabolic syndrome.

Methods: Fifty-one women with metabolic syndrome were divided into three groups: 12 weekly sessions of high intensity supervised treadmill group, respectively, at % 70 of maximum oxygen consumption (group I, n=17), low intensity supervised treadmill group, respectively at % 50 of maximum oxygen consumption (group II, n=17) and walking at low intensity, respectively at % 50 of maximum oxygen consumption with ECEPEDO pedometer (group III, n=17). Target heart rate (HR) corresponding to values of 50-70 % VO2max were determined by the submaximal treadmill test. Group 1 and 2 were instructed walking at their target HR on a treadmill. The number of steps taken in a minute corresponding to target HR was determined by a criterion pedometer and group 3 was instructed walking in this step range recorded to ECE PEDO giving audible feedback. Participants were evaluated by weight, BMI, waist circumference (WC), blood sugar, LDL, HDL and triglyceride; viseral fat, trunk fat and waist circumference by bioelectrical impedance device (VIScan); ergospirometric VO2max at baseline, 12-week and 4-week detraining period.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Supervised treadmill group (%70 VO2 max) (group 1)Other

    An exercise prescription was developed for each woman on the basis of the data acquired from the baseline treadmill exercise test. Target heart rate (HR) corresponding to values of 70% VO2max were determined by the submaximal treadmill test. The participants were instructed walking at their target HR on a treadmill in Sports Rehabilitation Unit of Pamukkale University. HR was monitored by a Polar HR monitor (Polar Beat, Port, Washington, NY). During 12 weeks, 3 days in a week and 20 minutes per day walking program was applied.

  • Supervised treadmill group (%50 VO2 max) (group 2)Other

    An exercise prescription was developed for each woman on the basis of the data acquired from the baseline treadmill exercise test. Target heart rate (HR) corresponding to values of 50% VO2max were determined by the submaximal treadmill test. The participants were instructed walking at their target HR on a treadmill in Sports Rehabilitation Unit of Pamukkale University. HR was monitored by a Polar HR monitor (Polar Beat, Port, Washington, NY). During 12 weeks, 5 days in a week and 30 minutes per day walking program was applied.

  • ECE PEDO pedometer group (%50 VO2 max) (group 3)Device

    Target heart rate (HR) corresponding to values of 50 % VO2max were determined by the submaximal treadmill test. The number of steps taken in a minute corresponding to target HR was determined by a criterion pedometer and group 3 was instructed walking in this step range recorded to ECE PEDO giving audible feedback. During 12 weeks, 5 days in a week and 30 minutes per day walking program was applied.

What is being measured

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

  1. *Change from baseline in abdominal viseral fat and trunk fat and measured by VIScan at week 12 and 4-week detraining period.

    BIA device ViScan, designed to estimate visceral adiposity and trunk fat percentage. A wireless 'electrode belt' is placed on the bare midriff of the subject in supine position. The belt then uses dual frequency bio impedance (6.25 and 50 kHz) to measure trunk and visceral fat resistance and transmit the readings via infrared to the base unit.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

  2. *Change from baseline in weight (kilograms) at week 12 and 4- week detraining period.

    Weight was measured with weight scale.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

  3. *Change from baseline in Epinephrine/Adrenaline parameter at week 12 and 4- week detraining period.

    Fasting blood samples were collected at morning hours before exercise testing. To perform adrenaline values, a sum of blood were stored at -80 C for later study.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

  4. *Change from baseline in noradrenaline parameter at week 12 and 4- week detraining period.

    Fasting blood samples were collected at morning hours before exercise testing. To perform noradrenaline values, a sum of blood were stored at -80 C for later study.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

  5. *Change from baseline in free fatty acide parameter at week 12 and 4- week detraining period.

    Fasting blood samples were collected at morning hours before exercise testing. To perform free fatty acide values, a sum of blood were stored at -80 C for later study.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

  6. *Change from baseline in oxyntomodulin parameter at week 12 and 4- week detraining period.

    Fasting blood samples were collected at morning hours before exercise testing. To perform oxyntomodulin values, a sum of blood were stored at -80 C for later study.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

  7. *Change from baseline in glycerol parameter at week 12 and 4- week detraining period.

    Fasting blood samples were collected at morning hours before exercise testing. To perform glycerol values, a sum of blood were stored at -80 C for later study.

    Measured: Week 12 and week 16

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Supervised treadmill group (%70 VO2 max) (group 1), Supervised treadmill group (%50 VO2 max) (group 2) and ECE PEDO pedometer group (%50 VO2 max) (group 3) in people with Metabolic Syndrome, run by Pamukkale University.

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 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 29 Aug 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?

*Change from baseline in abdominal viseral fat and trunk fat and measured by VIScan at week 12 and 4-week detraining period. (time frame: Week 12 and week 16). The study lists 7 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 29 Aug 2018.
