Not yet recruiting This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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 tests whether doing balance exercises (like walking backward or standing on one leg) while also performing mental tasks (like counting or memory games) can lower stress and improve balance in healthy university students aged 18 to 25. Seventy-two participants will be split into three groups: dual-task training, balance exercises only, or general health advice. The training lasts 6 weeks, with two sessions per week. Researchers will measure stress levels and balance before and after the program.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
dual-task therapeutic exercises (dynamic balance plus cognitive tasks)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, drug-free way to help students manage stress and improve balance.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial in healthy volunteers, so results may not apply to people with stress disorders. The intervention is brief (6 weeks) and effects may be modest.
