Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
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 Results may not be published yet.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 (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 tests whether doing very short wall-squats (just a few minutes) at four different times each day can lower blood pressure in people with hypertension or pre-hypertension. Researchers will compare this approach to doing all the squats at once. The goal is to find a simple, practical exercise routine that fits into a busy day and helps control blood pressure.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
wall-squat exercise
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, time-efficient exercise routine to help manage blood pressure without medication.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 45 participants. The exercise is very brief, so the blood pressure benefits may be small or not last long.
