Home leg stimulation plus diet tested to fight metabolic problems after spinal injury
NCT ID NCT03495986
Summary
This study tested if a 16-week home program combining leg stimulation exercise with a diet plan was better than diet alone for improving health in adults with spinal cord injuries. Researchers measured changes in body fat, insulin sensitivity, and metabolism. The goal was to see if adding this specific exercise could help control common weight and metabolic issues that often develop after a spinal injury.
