Exercise,Metabolic Syndrome and Weight Regain (Echocardiography Substudy)

January 17, 2017 updated by: University of Missouri-Columbia

Exercise in Patients With Metabolic Syndrome and Weight Regain - Echocardiography Substudy

We plan to test the hypothesis that patients with metabolic syndrome will have impaired left ventricular diastolic parameters. These parameters will be measured before and after a stress test at the end of a 3 month period of exercise training and a 10% weight loss.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Resting E/E'
Time Frame: 12 weeks
E/E' is an echocardiographic parameter where E = early mitral inflow velocity and E' = early diastolic mitral annular motion. Measured in all participants prior to treadmill stress test.
12 weeks
Post-exercise E/E'
Time Frame: 12 weeks
E/E' is an echocardiographic parameter where E = early mitral inflow velocity and E' = early diastolic mitral annular motion. Measured in all participants immediately following treadmill stress test.
12 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Resting Maximal Oxygen Uptake (VO2 Max)
Time Frame: 12 weeks
Measure of the maximum volume of oxygen that a body is capable of utilizing in one minute, measured in milliliters per kilogram of body weight per minute (ml/kg/min). Measured in all participants prior to treadmill stress test.
12 weeks
Change in Maximal Oxygen Uptake (VO2 Max)
Time Frame: 12 weeks
Measure of the maximum volume of oxygen that a body is capable of utilizing in one minute, measured in milliliters per kilogram of body weight per minute (ml/kg/min) Measured in all participants immediately following treadmill stress test.
12 weeks
