About this study

The purpose of this project is to explore the relationship between the effect of coffee on exercise performance and caffeine metabolism.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will study the relationship between the impact of coffee on exercise and caffeine metabolism. The investigators will recruit healthy elite athletes. Participants will be forbidden to consume stimulant drinks such as coffee for 24 hours before the experiment. When the participants arrive at the lab on the day of the experiment, they will sign an informed consent form, a health history questionnaire and a daily coffee consumption questionnaire. Each participant does six rides, with one day of caffeine washout before each ride. In all trials, each participant will ride at the same time of day. Before riding, drink 200 ml water, decaffeinated coffee or coffee in random order, and the caffeine content of coffee is 200 mg. After 60 minutes of drinking, they start riding, after the completion of the riding, the subjects perceived and judged the perception between the baseline load and the comparison load. After the completion of the judgment, the next level of stimulus parameters will randomly generated to conduct the experiment. Each person conducted 6 groups of intervention experiments. Changes in average exercise performance, heart rate, electrocardiogram and body temperature will be observed after drinking decaffeinated coffee or coffee compared with drinking water. The concentration of caffeine and its metabolites in urine before and after drinking within 3 hours will be measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

What is being measured

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

  1. Exercise performance

    After the completion of the riding, the subjects perceived and judged the perception between the baseline load and the comparison load.

    Measured: On the experimental day, it lasts 2 weeks.

  2. Urine metabolites

    The contents of metabolites will be measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS ).

    Measured: On the experimental day, it lasts 2 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Body temperature

    Body temperature of participants will be measured by ear temperature gun.

    Measured: On the experimental day, it lasts 2 weeks.

  2. Electrocardiogram (ECG)

    ECG of participants will be measured by Amu ECG belt, the changes in P wave, PR interval, PR segment, QRS wave group, J point, ST segment, T wave, QT interval, and U wave will be observe.

    Measured: On the experimental day, it lasts 2 weeks.

  3. Blood pressure

    Systolic and diastolic blood pressure of participants will be measured by Omron digital sphygmomanometer.

    Measured: On the experimental day, it lasts 2 weeks.

  4. Height

    Height will be measured by seca 217 stable stadiometer. Subjects wearing no shoes.

    Measured: The morning of the first day of the experiment, 5 mins

  5. Body weight

    Fasting body weight will be measured by Bioimpedance Analysis (TANITA, MC-980).

    Measured: The morning of the first day of the experiment, 5 mins

  6. Fat mass

    Fat mass will be measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Shanghai united imaging, uMR 790 ).

    Measured: The morning of the first day of the experiment, 10 mins

  7. Fat free mass

    Fat free mass will be measured by Bioimpedance Analysis (Tanita, MC-980).

    Measured: The morning of the first day of the experiment, 10 mins

  8. Bone mass

    Bone mass will be measured by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (Horizon Wi).

    Measured: The morning of the first day of the experiment, 10 mins

  9. Heart rate

    Heart rate will be measured by heart rate belt.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  10. Waist circumferences

    Waist circumferences will be measured using a whole body laser scanner (TG2000-F).

    Measured: The morning of the first day of the experiment,10 mins

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Caffeine content in people with Healthy, run by Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology ,Chinese Academy of Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Exercise performance (time frame: On the experimental day, it lasts 2 weeks.). The study lists 2 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?
