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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This trial tests whether combining proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (a type of stretching that improves flexibility and strength) with core strengthening exercises can help people with Guillain-Barré syndrome recover balance, muscle strength, and the ability to perform daily activities. About 32 adults in the subacute or recovery stage (2 to 12 weeks after onset) will be randomly assigned to either this exercise program or conventional physical therapy. The exercises are done four times a week for eight weeks, with progress measured using standard balance, strength, and daily-living scales.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) combined with core strengthening exercises
What this could lead to
If effective, this combination of stretching and core exercises could offer a way to improve balance, strength, and daily living skills for people recovering from Guillain-Barré syndrome.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-stage trial, so results may not apply to everyone. The exercises are generally safe but could cause muscle soreness or fatigue.
