About this study

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of high intensity interval exercise and moderate intensity continuous exercise on metabolic parameters, physical measures, fitness level, body composition and miRNA-143 level in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Read the detailed description

Volunteers with type 2 diabetes mellitus will be evaluated in terms of any contra-indication that will restrain them from making exercise. 90 male or female volunteers who are suitable in terms of inclusion/exclusion criteria will be invited for the study. Volunteers will be randomly distributed to one of the 3 groups. Each group will contain 30 participants. 1. group will make aerobic exercise which is in the form of high intensity interval exercise 2.group will make aerobic exercise which is in the form of moderate intensity continuous exercise 3. Control group. Exercise groups will be cycling under observation in the hospital setting. Control group will make simple stretching exercises at home. Participants will be requested to complete a 3 months of exercise. They will be evaluated before and at the end of the 3 months of exercise with physical measures such as waist and hip circumference, fitness level measured by exercise testing, body composition measured by bioimpedance, metabolic parameters such as blood glucose level, HbA1C and measured by blood tests.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing exercise in people with Type2 Diabetes Mellitus and Exercise, run by Pamukkale University at 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 inclusion and 15 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 16 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

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 in HbA1c level. (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03682445, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Dec 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
