What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This trial tests whether a 10-week telemedicine exercise program can improve cardiorespiratory fitness and insulin resistance in Asian children aged 12-17 with low fitness levels. Participants will either join weekly online exercise sessions or follow standard activity advice. Researchers will measure changes in running laps and insulin sensitivity before and after the program.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
telemedicine-based exercise programme
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a convenient way to improve fitness and insulin sensitivity in children who have low cardiorespiratory fitness.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (122 participants) testing a behavioural intervention. Results may not apply to all children, and adherence to the program could be a challenge.
