NCT ID NCT07543705
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracks blood sugar levels in 100 healthy soldiers as they complete a 6-kilometer march carrying 15 kilograms of gear. Researchers will use continuous glucose monitors and heart rate sensors to see how exercise affects glucose and the nervous system. The goal is to better understand what influences blood sugar during physical exertion.
