NCT ID NCT07769840

First seen Aug 18, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026

Summary

This trial tests whether different combinations of rowing and cycling exercise can reduce inflammation and improve blood sugar control in people newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Participants, aged 18-60 and not yet on medication, will be assigned to one of five exercise programs or a control group. The study measures inflammatory markers, body composition, and blood sugar fluctuations over a short period. The goal is to find the most effective exercise routine for early diabetes management.
