An interventional study of Isometric exercise in Coronary Artery Disease and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, sponsored by Universidade Federal de Sao Carlos. Completed at 1 site in Brazil. Open to male participants aged 45 Years to 65 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2018-01-26.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) may promote alterations in heart responses during exercise or postural maneuver. Thus, the purpose of this study is to observe the influence of different postures (supine, seated and standing) and different percentages (15, 30, 45 and 60%) of the maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) of handgrip in the responses of heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV) and peripheral vascular resistance (PVR) in coronary patients with and without type 2 diabetes.
5,598 studies on the registry are indexed under Coronary Artery Disease; 957 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 30 is below the median of 124 across 3,436 interventional studies indexed under Coronary Artery Disease.

Exclusion Criteria:
15 men, 45 and 65 years old. After initial evaluation, clinical exercise testing, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, carotid ultrasound, laboratory tests (biochemical blood) and isometric exercise protocol will be performed.
Other: Isometric exercise
15 men, 45-65 years old, with coronary artery disease and type 2 diabetes will perform clinical exercise testing, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, carotid ultrasound, laboratory tests (biochemical blood), clinical autonomic tests and isometric exercise protocol will be performed.
Other: Isometric exercise
15 men, 45-65 years old, with coronary artery disease will perform clinical exercise testing, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, carotid ultrasound, laboratory tests (biochemical blood) and isometric exercise will be performed.
Other: Isometric exercise
The isometric protocol (handgrip) will be performed into 4 percentages of MVC (15, 30, 45 and 60%) to exhaustion in 3 postures (supine, seated and standing position). The percentages and the postures will be randomized. In the first day of exercise protocol the subjects will be at rest during 10 minutes and will perform 3 MVC during 5 seconds, with 5 minutes of recovery. The higher value of MVC will be used to prescribe the percentages. The subjects will perform two contractions until exhaustion in one posture in each day.
Cardiovascular responses during isometric exercise
15 men with coronary artery disease and 15 healthy subjects will perform isometric contractions (handgrip) in different percentages (15,30, 45 60%) of maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) and in different postures (supine, seated and standing position). The percentages and postures will be randomized and the subjects will perform two contractions per day in a posture. All the variables will be evaluated through pulse plethysmograph (Finometer PRO, Finapress Medical System, The Netherlands). The subjects will be assessed in the protocol of isometric exercise for six days (two contractions per day and one posture). Initially they will remain at rest for 10 minutes and wiil perform the percentage drawn of maximal voluntary contraction until exhaustion. After 10 minutes of recovery subjects will perform another percentage of maximum contraction to exhaustion.
Time frame: Change in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, cardiac output, stroke volume and peripheral resistance. [time frame: initial (10 min), during the time of contraction (peak) and after contraction (10 min)
