NCT ID NCT06999057

First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how a pretend knee injury changes the way thigh muscles work. Healthy young adults will have their knee briefly numbed or filled with fluid to mimic injury, then muscle signals and strength are tested in one 2-hour session. The goal is to better understand muscle inhibition after real knee trauma and help design better treatments.
