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 Results may not be published yet.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

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether adding vibration therapy to standard rehabilitation could improve leg muscle strength, daily function, and emotional well-being in people who recently had a stroke. 115 hospitalized patients were randomly assigned to receive either standard care alone, stationary cycling, or cycling plus a wearable or platform vibration device for 5 days. Researchers measured changes in muscle strength, balance, self-care ability, and anxiety/depression scores before and after the intervention.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
wearable vibration device and vertical vibration platform
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, early rehab method to help stroke survivors regain leg strength and independence faster.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with no phase designation. Results may not apply to all stroke patients, and the short 5-day intervention limits long-term conclusions.

Diagnosed with transient ischemic attack (TIA) accompanied by vision or hearing impairments. 2. Disability level of mRS ≥ 5 (severe disability requiring bedridden care). 3. Acute or chronic neurological or musculoskeletal injuries in the lower limbs or history of joint surgery within the past six months. 4. Presence of a pacemaker. 5. Unstable or significant cardiovascular or cardiac disease, cancer history, end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis, or diagnosed psychiatric disorders, especially depression. 6.
