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 Results may not be published yet.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 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 tests whether sensory integration training—exercises that stimulate balance, body awareness, and touch—can improve thinking, quality of life, and social participation in older adults with mild cognitive impairment. Forty participants aged 65–85 will be assigned to either sensory training or aerobic walking for 12 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in memory, attention, and daily function to see if this non-drug approach offers benefits.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Sensory integration training (balance, body awareness, and touch exercises) and aerobic exercise (walking program)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a non-drug way to help older adults with mild cognitive impairment stay sharper and more socially active.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The training is non-invasive, but benefits may be modest or not last long-term.

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 40 people

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

Expected to start

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
