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 Results may not be published yet.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.
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.

Summary

This study looks at whether exercising before or after breakfast or dinner changes how the body handles blood sugar after meals. Thirty healthy, active adults will run for 45 minutes at different times and wear a continuous glucose monitor. The goal is to see which timing leads to the best blood sugar responses.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
timed endurance exercise
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help people plan exercise around meals to better manage blood sugar levels.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy young adults, so results may not apply to older or less active people. The effect on blood sugar may be small or inconsistent.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Participants

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