NCT ID NCT07233902
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compared two ways of delivering exercise programs to people with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis: live online sessions with a therapist versus pre-recorded videos. Sixteen participants completed a 12-week program focusing on strength, core stability, and stretching. Researchers measured walking ability, fatigue, quality of life, and mood to see which method worked better.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- structured exercise program (combined strengthening, core stabilization, and stretching)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could show that remote exercise programs are effective and accessible for people with multiple sclerosis, improving mobility and quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, completed study with only 16 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The exercise programs are not a treatment for the disease itself.
