About this study

The study aims to investigate the impact of Soleus Push Ups (SPU) on Soleus Muscle endurance, Oxidative Stress Markers, Inflammatory markers and Adipocytokines among people in the United Arab Emirates. This will be a pre-post intervention study with participants divided into three groups: Lean normal metabolic profile, metabolically healthy overweight/obese, and patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Assessment of anthropometry and body composition, Soleus Muscle Endurance, blood tests for Inflammatory Markers, Oxidative Stress Markers, and Adipocytokines will be conducted pre and post-intervention.

Being tested
Soleus Muscle Push Up Exercise, Other Exercise
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, Obesity, Overweight

What participants receive

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

  • Soleus Muscle Push Up ExerciseOther

    Members will be asked to do the SPUs for 270 minutes/day for most days of the week (minimum 5 days) for 3 months:

    1. Begin seated on a bench or chair so knees form a 90-degree angle with feet flat on the floor and toes pointed forward. Keep spine straight and shoulders back (not hunched or rounded forward).
    2. Using a slow and controlled tempo, push toes into the floor and lift heels off the ground.
    3. Hold for one to two seconds, pushing down on the balls of feet. Keep your thigh muscles relaxed.
    4. Slowly lower heels and return to start. That's 1 rep. Without shoes Educational session will be given before the intervention time WhatsApp messages will be sent 1-2 times/day to remind the participants to continue doing the exercise and ascertain compliance. Also, the participants are required to daily fill logbook about the duration (in minutes) of the SPU that they did.
  • Other ExerciseOther

    Participants will be asked to continue their regular lifestyle

What is being measured

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

  1. Adipocytokine levels in the blood

    Measured in μg/ml, using blood test by specialized personnel

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Soleus Muscle endurance through Heel Raise Test. • Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress markers through blood sample.

    Measured as a number, in repetitions. Detailed procedure described previously.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Soleus Muscle Push Up Exercise and Other Exercise in people with Diabete Type 2 and Obesity, run by University of Sharjah.

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 8 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 10 Jun 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Amenah Abdelazim, BPT (+971554590707, aabdelazim@sharjah.ac.ae), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adipocytokine levels in the blood (time frame: 3 months). 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 10 Jun 2024.
