To test this hypothesis patients with chronic heart failure (30 - 65 years), left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%, Functional Classes II-III), are being randomized into exercise with HIIT, MICT or no training (NT) three times/week for 12 weeks. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity is assessed by microneurography. Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), blood flow and vascular conductance were assessed by ultrasonography. Blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) by are being measured via finger photoplethysmograph and peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2peak) by a cardiopulmonary exercise test on ergometer cycle for leg. Biopsy samples from the lateral vast of the thigh are being collected for analysis of the intracellular mechanisms in the skeletal muscle. Exercise training is being conducted under supervision at the Heart Institute, School of Medicine, University of São Paulo. Both HIIT and MICT are performed on a cycle ergometer, three times per week for 12 weeks, and training sessions were matched for energy expenditure (i.e., an isocaloric energy expenditure of 200 Kcal/session). The intensity of the MICT session is established based on the HR and workload levels corresponding to anaerobic threshold and respiratory compensation point (RCP). The intensity of the HIIT session is established based on the HR and workload levels corresponding to 5% above the RCP. All exercise sessions were performed under the supervision of an exercise physiologist. The patients in the NT group were instructed to avoid any regular exercise program or any non-supervised exercise protocol during the study. All patients are being assessed before (pre) and after (post) both exercise training modes or control, no training.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '30 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Functional Class II to III of New York Heart Association\n* Left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%\n* Peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2) \\<20 ml•kg-1•min-1\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Myocardial infarction within three months\n* Unstable angina\n* Acute heart failure\n* Pacemaker\n* Pulmonary disease\n* Chronic renal disease\n* Peripheral neuropathy\n* History of stroke\n* Untreated hypo/hyperthyroidism\n* Body mass index (BMI) \\>30 kg/m2\n* History of smoking'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04248894', 'briefTitle': 'Impact of Interval Training on Sympathetic Hyperactivity and Vascular Function', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Sao Paulo General Hospital'}, 'officialTitle': 'The Impact of High-intensity Interval Training Versus Moderate Continuous Training on Neurovascular Control in Patients With Heart Failure', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SDC: 4070/14/050'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'High-intensity interval training (HIIT)', 'description': 'High-intensity interval training (HIIT) = the exercise of high intensity perform on a cycle ergometer, three times per week for 12 weeks, and training sessions were matched for energy expenditure (i.e., an isocaloric energy expenditure of 200 Kcal/session).
