The aims of this project are to compare the effects between 8-week moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on improving HRV.
NCT06333496
BACKGROUND GLP1 booster (GB) was designed to stimulate the endogenous production of GLP1, which in turn releases insulin, controls blood glucose level, suppresses appetite and thus helps people lose weight. PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to assess several clinical endpoints and questionnaires in healthy volunteers taking the new GB formula. SCOPE The scope of this protocol covers the non-clinical portion as well as the assessment of several clinical endpoints and questionnaires. In brief, the non-clinical design will be an open-label study involving volunteers taking GB everyday for 12 weeks. Data analysis will involve measuring the clinical endpoints across the group at different timepoints.
NCT05580263
Purposes: The purpose of one-year project is to compare the effect of different intrasession exercise order of AE and RE during concurrent training on reducing VAT and improving insulin resistance for inactive middle-age community residents with obesity. Methods: Purposive sampling will be used to enroll community residents aged 40-64 years with inactive habit and body fat percentage ≧ 25% for male and ≧ 30% for female in southern Taiwan. Eligible participants will be stratified by sex and age (40-55years and 56-64 years) then block randomly divided into training group of AE preceding RE, RE preceding AE or a control group. The exercise training program will under supervision lasting 16 weeks with 3 times per week. The concurrent training prescription consist of AE 30 minutes and RE 15 minutes per session. A 5-minute interval between two exercise modalities. All participants will be evaluated outcomes for two time points including baseline (T0) and after 16-week intervention (T1). The primary outcomes are VAT and insulin resistance. A two-way ANOVA with repeated measures will be performed to compare changes of outcome variables over the intervention period. Relevance to clinical practice: The results of this project can assist health professionals to know how to properly prescribe concurrent training of AE and RE to achieve the greatest effects on VATreduction and insulin resistance improvement for middle-age residents with obesity.

We hypothesize that the combination of a nutritional education intervention with a HIIT-based physical exercise program improve muscle metabolism through positive modifications of gut microbiota in people with T2DM, leading to better glycaemia/insulinaemia levels, reduction of body fat mass and improving quality of life. The project is a randomized controlled clinical trial in 120 participants with T2DM and obesity, which aims to determine the efficacy of a nutritional education program and the role of physical exercise type on health related variables. The participants will be of both sexes with age between 40 and 55 years, belonging to the Province of Cádiz. The design has two 12-week interventions; the main factor has 2 levels: participants who receive the nutritional education (EDU) and controls (CG); the second factor has 3 levels: high-intensity interval training (HIIT), moderate intensity continuous training (MICT), and controls (INACT). Therefore, participants will be randomized into 6 groups (n=20), adjusted by gender (≈50% in each group): EDU+HIIT, EDU+MICT, EDU+INACT, CG+HIIT, CG+MICT, CG+INACT. The outcome variables, which will be measured before and after the intervention, will include: dietary intake assessment, physical activity assessment, quality of life, faecal samples, blood samples, blood pressure, appetite assessment, muscle biopsy samples, body composition and fluids, basal metabolism, maximal fat oxidation test and cardiorespiratory fitness.
NCT04696614
Exercise is the most effective way on reducing visceral adipose tissue (VAT), which is strongly linked with obesity to hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and insulin resistance. However, the current exercise dosage for reducing VAT cannot be accurately quantified. The aims of this study are to develop and test the optimal exercise dosage and sequence for reducing VAT in overweight and obese community residents. Purposive sampling will be used to enroll at least 206 participants aged 40-65 years and body fat more than 30% without diet control from 2 community centers in southern Taiwan. The project will use the sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) design to conduct a 16-week 2-stage (each for 8-weeks) adaptive exercise intervention for community residents. In the first stage, participants will be randomized into groups performing 8 weeks either moderate intensity of aerobic exercise or interval training 3 times per week. Participants whose VAT does not decrease by over 3%, measured using a body composition analyzer, compared with the baseline will be 1:1 rerandomized into groups with aerobic exercise combined with resistance exercise or received the exchange of first stage treatment (interval training or aerobic exercise) in the second stage. Those with substantial response to the first-stage intervention (VAT reduction of more than 3%) will continue to receive the same exercise treatment until 16 weeks. Linear mixed model, weighted and replicated regression will be used to identify the optimal sequence of exercises for the greatest reduction in VAT. The findings can assist clinical health workers to develop exercise prescriptions for effectively reducing VAT, and help community residents reduce VAT through exercise to achieve the health promotion.
NCT04587804
This study will evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of a simultaneous treatment by repetitive pulse magnetic stimulation and radiofrequency energy for toning of abdomen and reduction of subcutaneous fat. The study is a prospective multi-center open-label single-arm study. The subjects will be enrolled and assigned into a single study group. Subjects will be required to complete three (3) treatment visits and two to three follow-up visits. All of the study subjects will receive the treatment with the subject device.
NCT04455009
The purpose of this investigation was to examine the acute effects of consuming two different fitness drink formulas on the physiological response at rest and to exercise in healthy men and women.
