What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial examines how a single session of aerobic exercise, anaerobic exercise, or high-intensity interval training (HIIT) changes levels of irisin, leptin, and ghrelin in sedentary women. Twenty women who do not regularly exercise will complete each exercise type, and researchers will measure hormone levels before and after. The goal is to see which exercise modality triggers the most favorable hormonal response for metabolism and appetite regulation.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Three exercise sessions: aerobic exercise, anaerobic exercise, and high-intensity interval training (HIIT)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could clarify which exercise type best influences appetite and metabolism hormones, guiding fitness advice for sedentary women.
What could go wrong
The trial is small with only 20 participants, and it measures short-term hormone changes, not long-term health outcomes. Results may not apply to other groups.

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 20 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start
