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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study will look at how muscle stiffness and tone relate to balance in children aged 6 to 12 with spastic hemiplegia, a condition where one side of the body is tight and weak. Researchers will use a handheld device to measure muscle properties and a balance system to test stability. The goal is to better understand these factors, which could help design better therapies in the future.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could improve understanding of how muscle stiffness affects balance in children with spastic hemiplegia, potentially guiding future therapies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to all children. It measures physical properties, not treatment outcomes.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
