About this study

Official title: High Intensity Interval Exercise Versus Focused Ultrasound on Insulin Resistance in Diabetic Female Patients With Abdominal Obesity

Obesity and diabetes share a common insulin resistance pathway and contribute to chronic hyperglycemia. Both high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) and focused ultrasound (FUS) have been explored in the context of managing insulin resistance in diabetic individuals with abdominal obesity, though they operate through different mechanisms and have different implications.

Read the detailed description

Forty diabetic females aged 25 to 35 years old and body mass index was ≥ 30 kg/m², will participate in this study. They will be assigned into two equal groups, Group A will receive high intensity interval exercise 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet. Group B will receive focused ultrasound 2 times per week for 4 months in addition to intermitted fasting diet. Assessment of abdominal obesity will be applied pre and post treatment through measuring Body mass index (BMI), Waist circumference (WC) in addition to Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone will be measured to determine effect of treatment on insulin resistance.

Being tested
High intensity interval exercise, Focused ultrasound
Medical subject headings
Insulin Resistance, Obesity, Abdominal, Diabetes Mellitus

What participants receive

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

  • High intensity interval exerciseOther

    HIIT is a type of interval training exercise. It incorporates several rounds that alternate between several minutes of high intensity movements followed by short periods of lower intensity movements 2 times per week for 4 months.

  • Focused ultrasoundOther

    Focused ultrasound will be applied over the anterior abdominal, two sessions per week for 4 months, each session 40 minutes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Body mass index

    The weight and height of each woman in both groups will be measured to calculate the body mass index (BMI)

    Measured: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

  2. Waist circumference

    Assessment of waist circumference of each woman by the tape measurement

    Measured: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

  3. Skin fold

    The thickness of the abdominal fold will be measured using skinfold calipers to provide information on changes in subcutaneous fat in the abdominal region.

    Measured: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

  4. Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone

    Value of HbA1c and HOMA-IR hormone will be measured to determine effect of treatment on insulin resistance.

    Measured: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High intensity interval exercise and Focused ultrasound in people with Insulin Resistance and Abdominal Obesity, run by Badr 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 6 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 May 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Zeezy Soliman Eraky, Lecturer (01003934051, zeezyeraky@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Body mass index (time frame: Before starting the study and after 4 months of treatment). The study lists 4 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 8 May 2024.
