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 Results may not be published yet.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
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

Summary

This study explores whether a single 20-minute session combining mindfulness with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) can improve executive function—skills like focus and flexibility—in children aged 10 to 12. Participants will try four conditions: mindfulness plus HIIT, mindfulness alone, HIIT alone, and sitting rest. Researchers will measure changes in thinking speed, accuracy, and brain activity using EEG. The goal is to see if the combined approach works better than either practice alone.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
mindfulness-based high-intensity interval training (MF-HIIT)
What this could lead to
If combining mindfulness with HIIT improves children's focus and brain function, it could point toward simple, non-drug ways to boost cognitive performance in school settings.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy children, so results may not apply to other groups. The effects of a single session may not last or translate to real-world benefits.

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

About 60 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

An estimate. End dates often move.

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.
