Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Improvement With Nutrition and Exercise (PHINE) (NCT03288025)
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Improvement With Nutrition and Exercise (PHINE) A Randomized Controlled Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent to which diet and exercise may improve PAH through the modulation of insulin sensitivity. The central hypothesis is that dysregulated glucose metabolism elicits a response in PAH patients that can be modified by exercise and diet, thereby leading to improvements in pulmonary vascular disease.
