Healthy Clinical Trial - The Effects of Acute Melatonin Supplementation on

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

the purpose of this experiment is to determine if acute melatonin supplementation alters central and peripheral cardiovascular responses to a cold pressor test at rest and during dynamic exercise.

Clinical Trial Description

After IRB approval, experiments will take place in the Human Circulation Research Laboratory in the Department of Health and Exercise on the University of Oklahoma Norman campus. All subjects will complete a total of 3 visits. The first is a screening visit to provide informed consent and to ensure the potential participant meets all inclusion criteria and no exclusion criteria. Once consented and enrolled, participants will be familiarized with experimental protocols. On separate days (visits 2 and 3), participants will complete placebo (PLA) and melatonin (MEL) in a randomly ordered, single-blind, counter-balanced design. PLA or MEL treatment will precede testing by 30min to maximize absorption into the circulation (Bartoli, 2013). All experiments (PLA/MEL) will begin with the subject lying supine for 5 min of quiet rest where baseline measurements are taken, followed by activation of the lower body negative pressure (LBNP) device causing suction at -20 mmHg. Following LBNP participants will be given 10 minutes of rest to recover all variables to pre-LBNP values. After which participants will be given a hand grip dynamometer to complete 7 minutes of exercise at an intensity of 20% MVC at a 1s contraction to 2s relaxation cycle paced by a metronome. During the final 2 minutes of the 7 minutes of exercise the LBNP device will be activated again to -20mmHg such that the participant will be completing LBNP during rhythmic grip exercise. After the completion of exercise, the subject will remain supine for 10min. Then the a Total Labile Signal (TLS) procedure will be conducted. Where the experimental limb is occluded using a blood pressure cuff for 5min. The cuff is then rapidly deflated. The lowest oxyhemoglobin measured during the occlusion is recorded. After the TLS procedure, the subject will be de-instrumented and will leave the laboratory. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
