What is being measured

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

  1. Behavioral performance

    reaction time of stroop and simon task following congruent and incongruent condition.

    Measured: around 10-30 minutes after exercise intervention

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. P3 component

    P3 of event-related potentials component, a larger P3 amplitude and shorter P3 latency means better performance

    Measured: around 10-30 minutes after exercise intervention

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?

Behavioral performance (time frame: around 10-30 minutes after exercise intervention). 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 23 Aug 2021.
