About this study

Official title: Effect of Upper Limb Ergometer on the Arthrogenic Index of Plasma in Post Menopausal Obese Women.

Participants had randomly divided into two equal groups. Group (A) which is the control group receive normal routine medication. Group (B) will receive normal routine medication with the treatment program of moderate intensity upper limb ergometer for 15 minute with frequency three times per week for four weeks.

Read the detailed description

Control group (A):

  1. Each participant will sign a consent form after receiving a detailed explanation about the procedure.
  2. A blood sample will been taken by a nurse in a heparinized tube and delivered to lab within six hours.
  3. BMI will been measured body weight(Kg) and height (m2)
  4. BMI= body weight (Kg)/ height (m2).
  5. Waist circumference will be measured.
  6. After one month blood analysis evaluation will be done to record the response to the routine medication.

Training Procedure for group (B):

  1. Each participant will sign a consent form after receiving a detailed explanation about the procedure.
  2. A blood sample will been taken by a nurse in a heparinized tube and delivered to lab within six hours.
  3. BMI will been measured body weight(Kg) and height (m2)
  4. BMI= body weight (Kg)/ height (m2).
  5. Waist circumference will be measured.
  6. The maximum heart rate will be determined from Tanaka formula (208- 0.7 *age of the participant)
  • Then the exercise load will be determined according heart rate reserve of the participants ( maximum heart rate - resting heart rate).
  1. Start with sitting resting without any effort for 5 min then Start at a low speed and intensity for 5 minutes to warm up the body.
  2. Increase the speed and intensity for 10-30 seconds before dropping it back for 2-5 minutes and Repeat according to the intensity.
  3. Finally, a five minutes of cooling down with no resistance had performed.
  4. After one month blood analysis evaluation will be done to record the response to the routine medication.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Electronic Upper limb( body) ergometer in people with Post Menopausal Obese Women, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Effect of the upper body ergometer on arthrogenic index ( triglyceride/ high density lipoprotein) (time frame: after one month of the trial application). 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.
