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 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 Results may not be published yet.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.
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
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

Researchers want to understand how people with patellofemoral pain respond to resistance training taken to muscular failure. About 30 participants aged 15 to 35 with pain in one knee will perform a knee exercise until they cannot continue or their pain reaches a moderate level. The team will record pain ratings and use cameras and force plates to analyze knee and hip motion during the exercise. The study observes responses rather than testing a treatment.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
resistance training to muscular failure
What this could lead to
If researchers learn how pain and movement change during hard knee exercises, this could help physiotherapists set safer training targets for people with patellofemoral pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study of 30 people, so it cannot prove that resistance training treats or worsens knee pain. Participants stop if pain reaches a moderate level, and the findings may not apply to other age groups or knee conditions.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients diagnosed with PFP in only one knee by a licensed healthcare professional. * Aged 15-35 years. * A physical activity level of 3/10 or higher on the Tegner Activity Scale before the injury. Exclusion Criteria: * Any prior injury or condition with residual symptoms that may affect the results. * Current injury or condition affecting the performance of the test. * Resting pain greater than 0-1/10 on the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS) and pain greater than 1-2/10 during light daily activities such as walking, sitting, standing, or climbing stairs.
