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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study investigates whether coordination-based exercise improves memory and attention in children aged 10 to 12 more than aerobic exercise. Seventy-eight healthy children are randomly assigned to aerobic training, coordination training, or their usual school activities for 14 weeks. Researchers measure working memory and selective attention before and after the program to see which type of exercise benefits cognitive skills most.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
exercise programs (aerobic and coordination)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could help schools design physical activities that boost children's cognitive development alongside fitness.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy children, so results may not apply broadly. The effects on executive functions may be modest or absent.
