What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting 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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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.

Summary

This study tests whether a structured program of touch, temperature, vibration, and movement exercises can improve sensation and hand function in people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Fifty-nine adults with stable diabetes will be randomly assigned to either the active training program or a sham (placebo) session twice a week for five weeks. The goal is to see if this approach can help restore sensory abilities and quality of life.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Structured multisensory re-education program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new rehabilitation approach to improve sensation and hand function in people with diabetic neuropathy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 59 participants, and the sham control may not fully account for placebo effects. The program requires multiple sessions, so results may not apply to everyone.
