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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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.

Summary

This study evaluates whether an improved paper grasping test is a valid and reliable way to measure hand function in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will compare the test results with measures of balance, ankle strength, and quality of life in 40 volunteers. Participants will perform the test twice, one week apart, to check consistency. The goal is to see if this quick, low-tech test can be a useful clinical tool for assessing motor function in Parkinson's.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Improved paper grasping test (a physical assessment procedure)
What this could lead to
If validated, this simple test could become a reliable tool for clinicians to quickly assess hand function in Parkinson's disease, aiding in monitoring and treatment planning.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study focused on measurement accuracy, not treatment. The test may not prove reliable or may not correlate strongly with other measures, limiting its clinical use.
