What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early

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 study at Hashemite University looks at how people with and without tennis elbow feel pressure pain and how their bodies briefly turn down pain after a cold stimulus. Participants answer short questionnaires and have their pressure-pain threshold tested with a handheld device. To test the body's built-in anti-pain system, one hand is placed in ice water and pain sensitivity is measured before, during, and after. The findings may help improve future assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal pain.
