About this study

In this study, it is aimed to investigate the relationship between body composition, aerobic capacity, trunk muscle endurance and muscle strength in young male basketball players.

The study will take place at a local basketball academy. Young male athletes between the ages of 10-24 and enrolled in a basketball academy will be included in the study. Participants who have been involved in basketball for less than a year, and those who have injuries that prevent participation in the study will be excluded.

Read the detailed description

Individual development differences in young people can have an impact on physical fitness components such as aerobic capacity, trunk muscle endurance and muscle strength required for basketball. At the same time, differences in these components can have effects on each other.

There is a complex relationship between anthropometric changes during growth and physical fitness because many differences can occur during the physiological development of players. In this context, differences in growth rate and development in young basketball players are complex factors that affect game performance and player success. Characteristics such as body height, body weight, skeletal muscle ratio and body fat are among the basic anthropometric components of a basketball player, and these components are considered to be important indicators of a player's game performance.

What participants receive

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

  • OMRON BF511 Body Composition MonitorOther

    Also called Multi-Stage 20 m Shuttle Run Test, Biering-Sorensen Test and Kraus-Weber Test, MicroFET® 2 hand dynamometer

    The OMRON BF511 Body Composition Monitor is a digital scale and participants' body compositions will be evaluated with this device. The aerobic capacities of the participants will be evaluated with the Multi-Stage 20 m Shuttle Run Test and the maximum oxygen consumption levels will be calculated with the help of the formula with the data obtained from this test. The trunk extensor muscle endurance of the participants will be evaluated with the Biering-Sorensen Test and the trunk flexor endurance will be evaluated with the Kraus-Weber Test. Participants' M. Quadriceps, M. Hamstring, M. Biceps Brachii and M. Triceps Brachii muscle strengths will be evaluated with MicroFET® 2 hand dynamometer.

What is being measured

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

  1. Body Weight

    Participants' body weights will be evaluated with the OMRON BF511 Body Composition Monitor and recorded in kilograms (kg).

    Measured: One Month

  2. Body Height

    The body lengths of the participants will be evaluated with a tape measure and recorded in meters (m).

    Measured: One Month

  3. Body Mass Index

    The body mass index of the participants will be calculated and recorded with the formula kg/m^2.

    Measured: One Month

  4. Body Fat

    Participants' body fat will be evaluated with the OMRON BF511 Body Composition Monitor and recorded in percent (%).

    Measured: One Month

  5. Skeletal Muscle Mass

    Participants' skeletal muscle mass will be evaluated with the OMRON BF511 Body Composition Monitor and recorded in percent (%).

    Measured: One Month

  6. Visceral Fat

    Participants' visceral fat will be evaluated with the OMRON BF511 Body Composition Monitor and recorded in levels.

    Measured: One Month

  7. Resting Metabolic Rate

    Participants' visceral fat will be evaluated with the OMRON BF511 Body Composition Monitor and recorded in kilocalories (kcal).

    Measured: One Month

  8. Aerobic Capacity

    Maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max)

    Measured: One Month

  9. Trunk Muscle Endurance

    Trunk extensor muscle endurance will be evaluated with Biering-Sorensen Test and trunk flexor muscle endurance will be evaluated with Kraus-Weber Test. The maximum time the participants can continue the test will be recorded in seconds.

    Measured: One Month

  10. Muscle Strength

    1. Quadriceps, M. Hamstring, M. Biceps Brachii and M. Triceps Brachii muscles will be evaluated in Newtons (N) with MicroFET® 2 hand dynamometer.

    Measured: One Month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sports Physical Therapy, run by Bezmialem Vakif University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 20 Mar 2024. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Body Weight (time frame: One Month). The study lists 10 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05928559, which also lists 2 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?
