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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

Researchers at the University of Ioannina are studying stroke patients who have both movement and vision problems. They will evaluate each patient twice, once shortly after the stroke and again weeks later, to measure how these deficits change. The goal is to see whether improvement in vision and improvement in movement are statistically linked, which could help doctors better predict recovery.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If researchers find that vision and movement recovery move together, doctors could use eye exams to predict how well a stroke patient will regain movement, or time therapies more precisely.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study of 25 people at one hospital. It can show a pattern between vision and movement recovery but cannot prove that one causes the other, and the results may not apply to all stroke patients.
