Exercise effects on heart and kidneys in healthy people
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at how isometric exercise (like planks or wall sits) affects your heart and kidneys, using advanced scans (PET/CT and MRI). It's for healthy people to understand the normal effects of exercise on these organs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are in generally good health, as confirmed by a health questionnaire, medical exam, and blood tests.
- You are not currently taking immunosuppressive medications, glucocorticoids, GLP-1 agonists, or DPP-4 inhibitors.
- You do not have alcohol abuse, liver disease, or decreased kidney function.
- You are not severely claustrophobic and have no metal implants or other items that are unsafe for MRI scans.

This study uses advanced MRI scans to look at kidney health in living donors, transplant recipients, and healthy people. It aims to find links between MRI results and kidney function, fibrosis (scarring), and aging.
This study adds an MRI and other measurements to a heart registry to better understand heart function. You might benefit by getting detailed heart and kidney measurements, but you must meet safety and eligibility rules (like blood pressure, BMI, and being off heart medicines).
This study uses a special MRI scan to see how a hormone called glucagon affects blood flow in your kidneys. Healthy volunteers will help researchers understand how the kidneys work, which may lead to better treatments for kidney disease.
This Phase 2 study tests how engaging in supervised exercise affects the body’s blood-vessel responses in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who don’t exercise regularly. It may help researchers understand whether exercise could be beneficial for CKD-related health changes.
This study looks at how blood pressure and artery stiffness respond to exercise in people with heart, kidney, and metabolic problems. It may help doctors better understand your condition.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program can help reduce toxins in the blood for people with chronic kidney disease and metabolic syndrome. Researchers will also look at blood markers to understand how exercise affects the body.
