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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study compared two therapies—myofeedback and neuromuscular electrical stimulation—to see which better improves arm and hand function in children aged 6 to 14 who have one-sided weakness (hemiplegia) after brain tumor surgery. Forty-five children participated, and researchers measured muscle activity, arm function, and a brain-related protein in the blood. The goal was to find a more effective rehabilitation approach.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
myofeedback and neuromuscular electrical stimulation
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward better rehabilitation methods to improve arm and hand function in children with hemiplegia after brain tumor surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 45 children, so results may not apply to everyone. It tests short-term improvements, not a cure or long-term recovery.
