Study Summary
This trial looks at whether habitual sleep patterns predict performance on a 20-min time trial after partial sleep deprivation in healthy cyclists, 18-50 years old, and if sleep deprivation affects blood pressure, heart rate, and metabolic responses.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy individuals aged 18-50, who are non-smokers, not on chronic medication (except oral contraceptives), and without cardiovascular or sleep disorders. They should be able to engage in physical activity and follow the sleep protocols of the study. Pregnant individuals or those allergic to ultrasound gel cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how habitual sleeping patterns affect endurance performance after a night of partial sleep deprivation in cyclists. It examines changes in blood pressure, heart rate, metabolic responses during exercise, and vascular function under normal sleep and deprived conditions using an ActiGraph device.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves monitoring natural behaviors like sleeping habits rather than testing a drug or medical intervention, there are no direct side effects from treatments being studied.

Active Control
Placebo Group
Group I: Sleep deprivationActive Control1 Intervention
Participants will be asked to go to bed normally but wake up earlier, such that normal sleep duration is restricted by 60%. For example, if someone normally sleeps for 8 hours by falling asleep at 11 pm and waking up at 7 am, they will be asked to fall asleep normally (11 pm) and sleep for 3.2 hours, which results in a wake-up time of 2:12 am.
Group II: Normal sleepPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants will be asked to sleep during their normal sleep times prior to this visit
