NCT ID NCT02574299
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at how the brain processes speech sounds in 25 people with language impairment or hearing loss. Researchers used e-learning games or hearing aids to see if these interventions change brain activity. The goal was to better understand the underlying problems and guide future treatments.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- E-learning (serious game) and hearing aids
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help design better therapies for language and hearing disorders by understanding how the brain processes speech.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed observational study with only 25 participants, so results may not apply broadly. It does not test a new drug or treatment.
