What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tests whether a 16-week exercise program can help older adults with chronic kidney disease regain muscle and strength after being in the hospital. Researchers will use ultrasound and strength tests to measure changes. The goal is to find better ways to help patients recover and stay independent.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Exercise (supervised and home-based resistance training)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a standard exercise program to help older adults with kidney disease recover muscle and function after hospitalization.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study with no control group comparison for the exercise itself. Results may not apply to all patients, and adherence to home exercise may vary.
