Improving Glycemic Control With Electrical Stimulation
This study is looking at whether electrical stimulation, with or without resistance training, can help improve blood sugar control in people who are overweight or obese and have a sedentary lifestyle. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, have a BMI of 25 or higher, and don't exercise much. The study will measure your blood sugar control after 8 weeks to see if these interventions are helpful. The current status of this study is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an interventional study with 60 planned participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: electrical stimulation (sensory), electrical stimulation (maximum tolerable), resistance training, or a control/placebo group.
- What's involved
- You would wear an accelerometer for 7 days, follow a standardized diet, and then participate in an 8-week intervention of electrical stimulation (30 minutes/day, 3 times/week) or resistance training.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your glycemic control will be measured at 8 weeks after the intervention begins.
