About this study

Official title: Effect of High-Intensity Interval Exercise Training Compared With Moderate-intensity Continuous Training on Endothelial Function and Cardiorespiratory Fitness of Type 1 Diabetes Patients

To study the effect of 8 week high-intensity interval training (HIIT) compared with moderate intensity (MCT) interval training and sedentary patients(CON) with type 1 diabetes. Adult T1DM patients without known complications are randomised in blocks into these 3 groups according to their baseline flow mediated dilation (FMD). After 8 week exercise training, the main outcome, FMD, is re-evaluated. Additional variables such as VO2 peak for cardiovascular fitness, oxidative stress and endothelial independent vasodilation to study vascular rigidity are also evaluated.

Read the detailed description

In a randomized controlled open trial, 36 adult type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients without known complications were randomized into 3 groups: HIIT n=12; MCT n=12 and a sedentary control group (CON) n=12. Total sample size was calculated to a power of 80% alha 0.05 and a difference in mean FMD of 2%. Before randomisation, flow mediated dilation (FMD) and maximal exercise capacity (VO2 peak)is determined. Block Randomisation based on FMD rank values are done to equalize baseline FMD. Exercise sessions are performed in cycle ergometers during 40 minutes, 3 times a week, along 8 weeks. HIIT protocol, intensity vary from 50 to 85% of the maximum heart rate (HRmax), while in MCT, HR remained stable at 50% HRmax. Endothelial function was measured by flow mediated dilation (FMD) for endothelium-dependent vasodilation (EDVD) and smooth-muscle function was measured by nitroglycerine mediated dilation (endothelium independent vascular dilation) - (EIVD). Peak oxygen consumption (VO2peak) and oxidative stress markers were determined before and after the training period. ED was defined as an increase of less than 8% in vascular diameter after cuff release.

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 3 inclusion and 10 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 5 Mar 2018. 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 Brazil. 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. 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?

Endothelial Dependent Mediated Vascular Dilation (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03451201, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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 5 Mar 2018.
