Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study investigates the effect of high intensity exercise, with and without the inflammation inhibitor, ibuprofen, on plasma levels of IL-6 and other selective biomarkers of inflammation and appetite on food intake and subjective ratings of appetite in normal-weight boys.

Intervention Model

CROSSOVER

Fifteen normal-weight boys (aged 13-18y) were randomly assigned in a crossover design to four sessions: 1) Water + Rest; 2) Rest + ibuprofen; 3) Water + high intensity exercise; 4) high intensity exercise + ibuprofen. High intensity exercise consisted of three 10min bouts of high intensity exercise at 75% VO2peak at 60-70RPM with 1:30min active rest interposed. IBU was given in a 300mg liquid solution. EI, visual analog scale ratings and plasma biomarkers of appetite, inflammation, stress and glucose control were measured.
Primary Study Purpose

BASIC_SCIENCE

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Participants
Water control and ibuprofen solution contained 0.8 g of Sucralose (Heartland Food Products Group, Amsterdam, HP, Netherlands) and 1.2 g of orange flavored Kool-Aid (Kraft Foods, Northfield, IL, United States) to mask the taste of the Motrin solution. To match sweetness and calorie content of the ibuprofen Motrin drink, the water control also contained 6 mL high fructose corn syrup (ACH Food Companies, Mississauga, ON, Canada).
