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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study will test whether sensory motor training for neck muscles, combined with nerve gliding exercises, can improve hand grip strength in 50 post-menopausal women with fibromyalgia-related neck pain. Participants will do laser-guided neck movements and nerve stretches for four weeks. Researchers will measure hand strength, arm disability, neck pain, and pressure sensitivity before and after the program.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
sensory motor neck training and nerve gliding exercises
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to improve hand strength and reduce disability in women with fibromyalgia neck pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 50 participants and no blinding, so results may not be reliable or apply to everyone. The exercises may not provide lasting benefits.

Phase

Not a phased trial

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 50 people

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

Expected to start

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Fifty post-menopausal women clinically diagnosed with fibromyalgia neck pain for more than 3 months. * Their age will be ranged from 50-60 years old. * Their body mass index (BMI) will be less than 30 kg/m². * Their hand grip strength is less than 20 kg for dominant hand as measured by hand-held dynamometer. * Their neck pain score is ≥ 4 as measured by the visual analogue scale (VAS). * The right hand is the dominant for all of them. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants will be excluded from the study if they have: * Recent cervical trauma or surgery. * Neurological disorders. * Diabetes mellitus.
