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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This trial compares a new type of titanium bone plate, called a pin buckle plate, with standard miniplates for fixing fractures in the front of the lower jaw. Twenty adults with simple, single fractures will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two plates during surgery. Researchers will track pain, swelling, wound healing, and bone density on CT scans to see if the new plate leads to better recovery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a titanium pin buckle bone plate for internal fixation of jaw fractures
What this could lead to
If it works, this new plate design could offer a simpler, more stable way to fix certain jaw fractures, potentially reducing complications and improving recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 20 participants. The new plate may not prove better than standard care, and any device carries risks of infection or implant failure.
