Overview

Randomized trial reports a protocol targeting body fat reduction in overweight and obese gout patients, suggesting structured aerobic exercise guidelines for clinical disease management.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a 12-week moderate-intensity aerobic exercise regimen on body composition and metabolic parameters in overweight and obese individuals with gout.
  • Open-labeled randomized controlled trial (N=60; aged 18–55 years) allocating participants 1:1 to a moderate-intensity aerobic exercise group (MIAEG, n=30) or a non-exercising control group (CG, n=30; ChiCTR2200062153).
  • MIAEG participants engage in aerobic exercise targeting 60% heart rate reserve for 30–40 minutes per session, 3 days weekly across a 12-week intervention period, while controls maintain baseline habits.
  • Primary endpoint assesses the number of patients achieving body fat reduction at 12 weeks; secondary measures include changes in BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, serum uric acid, lipids, and insulin resistance compared via ANOVA.
  • Trial design and protocol paper; quantitative primary endpoint event rates, relative effect sizes, and p-values are pending trial completion.
  • The intervention protocol aims to determine whether individualized aerobic training systematically reduces total body fat compared to unaltered lifestyle controls.
  • Secondary analyses will quantify the magnitude and direction of exercise-induced changes on serum uric acid, lipid profiles, renal function, and hepatic steatosis.
