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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tested two exercise programs in 50 children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy aged 6-12. One group did exercises on unstable surfaces like gym balls and trampolines, while the other did similar exercises on stable surfaces like mats. The goal was to see which approach better improves balance and gross motor function over six weeks.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
exercise training (dynamic surface exercises on unstable surfaces vs static surface exercises on stable surfaces)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a more effective exercise approach to improve balance and motor skills in children with cerebral palsy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to all children with CP. The intervention is behavioral, so benefits may vary.
