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 Results may not be published yet.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

Details not published

Summary

This study looked at how a single foam rolling session affects oxygen levels in the hamstring muscles of 36 healthy adults with tight hamstrings. Researchers measured muscle oxygen saturation before and after rolling, and also checked flexibility. The goal was to see if men and women respond differently, which could help personalize warm-up routines.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Foam rolling (self-myofascial release)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help tailor foam rolling routines for men and women to improve flexibility and prevent injuries.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 36 people, so findings may not apply broadly. It only looks at short-term effects from one session.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

36 people

The number who actually took part.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 35 years

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.
