Effects of Water-Based Exercise on Lipid Profile and Lipoprotein Lipase of Dyslipidemic Premenopausal Women
A study testing Water Aerobics Training in people with Dyslipidemia, run by Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre.
Trial summary
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of water-based exercises on lipid profile (LP) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) levels in premenopausal dyslipidemic women. It was hypothesized that a water-based aerobic interval-training period would decrease plasma concentrations of atherogenic lipoproteins and… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Effects of Water-Based Exercise on Lipid Profile and Lipoprotein Lipase of Dyslipidemic Premenopausal Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of water-based exercises on lipid profile (LP) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) levels in premenopausal dyslipidemic women.
It was hypothesized that a water-based aerobic interval-training period would decrease plasma concentrations of atherogenic lipoproteins and concomitantly increase HDL and LPL levels, as well as maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) values.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Water Aerobics Training | Experimental | The training period was composed by a 12-week macrocycle with two sessions per week. The macrocycle was divided into three four-week mesocycles that were, in turn, divided into four one-week microcycles composed by two training sessions. Each training session took 45 min. Nine different water-aerobics exercises were used during the training period. These exercises were performed alternating the right and left limbs. Exercise intensities were controlled using the Borg Scale. Interval training was used alternating intensities ranged between 9 (easy) and 15 (hard). During the first mesocycle, participants performed sets of 3min at intensity 13 interspersed by 2min at intensity 9; during the second mesocycle, sets of 3min at intensity 15 followed by 2min at intensity 9 were performed; finally, sessions of the third mesocycle were composed by sets of 3min at intensity 15 followed by 2min at intensity 11.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of water-based exercises on lipid profile (LP) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) levels in premenopausal dyslipidemic women.
It was hypothesized that a water-based aerobic interval-training period would decrease plasma concentrations of atherogenic lipoproteins and concomitantly increase HDL and LPL levels, as well as maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) values.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Water Aerobics Training in people with Dyslipidemia, run by Hospital de Clinicas de Porto Alegre.
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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Apr 2015. 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?
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?
Lipid Profile Levels (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides) (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 16 Apr 2015.
