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 Results may not be published yet.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.
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 completed study tested whether adding nerve mobilization (stretching the radial nerve) to the Mulligan technique (a type of joint mobilization) helps people with chronic tennis elbow. Sixty adults aged 20-60 with elbow pain lasting at least three months took part. Researchers measured pain, arm function, and grip strength to see if the combined approach works better than standard therapy alone.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
neural mobilization and Mulligan mobilization with movement
What this could lead to
If the combination works better than standard care, it could offer a more effective physical therapy approach for chronic tennis elbow pain and disability.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The study did not report blinding or long-term follow-up, which limits confidence in the findings.
