About this study

Official title: The Effect of Exercise Timing on Postprandial Glycaemic Control: a Randomised Crossover Trial in Healthy Adults

Randomised crossover trial to compare early vs late walking on postprandial glycaemic response at night time.

Read the detailed description

In this crossover trial, eligible participants will be randomised to a 30-minute bout of physical activity (30 minute walk) either during the day or after an evening meal. The postprandial response to the evening meal will be analysed.

Being tested
Early exercise, Late exercise
Keywords
glucose tolerance, meal timing, insulin, postprandial, walking
Medical subject headings

  • Early exerciseOther

    Participants will exercise for 30 minutes prior to an evening meal.

  • Late exerciseOther

    Participants will exercise for 30 minutes after an evening meal.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postprandial glucose

    Change in glucose incremental area under the curve (iAUC) in response to a meal challenge

    Measured: Three hour glucose iAUC will be calculated at nine time points (0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 mins) after beginning consumption of the test meal.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Postprandial insulin

    Change in insulin incremental area under the curve (iAUC) in response to a meal challenge

    Measured: Three hour insulin iAUC will be calculated at six time points (0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180 mins) after beginning consumption of the test meal.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Early exercise and Late exercise in people with Postprandial Hyperglycemia and Insulin Resistance, run by Monash 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 4 inclusion and 6 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2024. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Postprandial glucose (time frame: Three hour glucose iAUC will be calculated at nine time points (0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 mins) after beginning consumption of the test meal.). 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 21 Nov 2024.
