What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests how three short exercise sessions affect breathing, metabolism, and muscle power in sedentary young men. Each participant walks, climbs stairs, and does a circuit workout for 20 minutes at a moderate pace, with rest days between sessions. Researchers measure lung function, blood lactate, and jump performance before and after each session to see which exercise offers the greatest immediate benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Three exercise sessions: walking, stair climbing, and functional circuit exercise, each lasting 20 minutes at moderate intensity.
What this could lead to
If results show one exercise type offers greater benefits for lung function or muscle power, it could guide simple, effective exercise recommendations for sedentary people.
What could go wrong
This is a small, short-term study in healthy young men, so findings may not apply to other groups or predict long-term health effects.
