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 Results may not be published yet.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 study compared two surgical methods for fixing a broken front jawbone: using a single locking plate versus two non-locking plates. Twenty patients with displaced jaw fractures were randomly assigned to one of the two groups. Researchers measured pain, swelling, healing, and other outcomes to see which approach worked better.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
titanium miniplates (surgical hardware)
What this could lead to
If one method proves better, it could simplify surgery for jaw fractures and reduce hardware complications.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, completed trial with only 20 patients, so results may not apply broadly. Both techniques are already in use, so no major breakthrough is expected.
