Study summary

The purpose of the study was to observe therapeutic effects of combined resistance and aerobic exercise training (CRAE) on hyperinsulemia in obese adolescent girls. Forty obese adolescent girls (14±1 years) participated in this study. The participants were randomly separated into two groups; no-exercise group (n=20) and exercise group (n=20). The exercise group performed 12 weeks of CRAE.

Study arms

  • No intervention
    No Exercise (CON)

    Twenty obese adolescent girls. This arm did not perform any exercise training for 12 weeks. Caloric intake: 1921.7 kcal/day

  • Experimental
    Exercise (EX)

    Twenty obese adolescent girls. This arm performed combined exercise training 5 times a week for 12 weeks. Caloric intake: 1921.7 kcal/day

    Behavioral: Combined Exercise Training

Interventions

  • BehavioralCombined Exercise Training

    The combined exercise training were consisted with 5 minutes of warm-up, 20 minutes of resistant band exercises (Upper: seated rows, biceps curl, shoulder flexion, elbow flexion, pushup; Lower: hip flexion, hip extension, calf raise, leg press, squat), 30 minutes of treadmill walking, and 5 minutes of cool-down. Intensity of the training was gradually increased from 40-50% heart rate reserve in 1-4 weeks to 60-70% HRR in 9-12 weeks.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Mar 2011 to primary completion in Jun 2011, 3 months.

Results were first posted in Aug 2019, 8 years 2 months after primary completion.

Of 3,680 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Obesity, half reached primary completion within 23 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 43. This study's 3 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 3,843 studies reached it within 22 months; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 42.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 3, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
