NCT ID NCT07409064
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether increasing physical activity helps teens with obesity lower high blood fats and improve how well their blood vessels work. About 110 participants aged 10–20 who are already in a structured weight loss program will wear fitness trackers and have their blood fats and vessel function measured over 6 months. The goal is to see if more exercise leads to better health outcomes.
