Taipei, TaiwanAges 18 years+ - NCT07226284Recruiting
Testing a nerve stimulation device for leg movement in Parkinson's
This study tests if a device that stimulates the vagus nerve (a nerve in your neck) can improve leg muscle activity and walking balance in people with Parkinson's disease. You would participate in experiments while wearing the device to see how it affects your movement.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 21–76 - NCT07206797Recruiting
Ultrasound to measure muscle activity from spinal cord stimulation
This study uses ultrasound to see how muscles respond to two types of electrical stimulation (spinal cord and functional electrical stimulation). It may help researchers better understand how to treat muscle weakness or paralysis.
Raleigh, North CarolinaAges 18–60 - NCT07198568Recruiting
Swallowing and Neck Muscle Activity in Sarcopenic Dysphagia
This study looks at how the muscles in your neck and throat work when you swallow, specifically in older adults who have both sarcopenia (low muscle mass) and trouble swallowing. The goal is to better understand the connection between swallowing and muscle activity, which may help develop better treatments.
Incheon, Jung-guAges 65 years+ - NCT07095725Recruiting
Effect of Period Pain on Muscle Activity in Young Women
This trial studies how primary dysmenorrhea (period pain) affects muscle activity in young women aged 18-25. It may help understand why period pain happens and guide future treatments.
GizaAges 18–25 - NCT06975202Recruiting
Trunk Muscle Activation in Pain-Free Adults
This study checks how reliably trunk muscle activity can be measured in healthy people. It helps researchers understand normal muscle function without pain.
GhentAges 18–65 - NCT06981013Recruiting
Weighted Torso Study for Balance in MS
This study tests if adding weight to your torso affects how your muscles work during balance tests. It may help researchers understand how to improve balance for people with MS.
Saint Augustine, FloridaAges 18–75 - NCT07051577Recruiting
Brain-Based Training for Young Archers
This study tests a special brain-based training program for young archers aged 15–18. The goal is to see if these exercises can improve your shooting accuracy and how your muscles work.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 15–18 - NCT07020312RecruitingPhase 2
Brain training to improve muscle recovery after joint surgery
This trial tests whether brain-computer interface training can help you regain muscle control more effectively after knee or hip surgery. It focuses on four common procedures and uses neurofeedback to optimize muscle activation during recovery.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06819475Recruiting
Muscle health study for childhood leukemia survivors
This study uses imaging to look at how well the mitochondria (the tiny power plants inside your muscle cells) are working. It compares survivors of childhood leukemia who have low muscle mass to healthy volunteers, to understand muscle health and find ways to help.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07602933Recruiting
Light Therapy for Muscle Fatigue from Electrical Stimulation
This study tests whether light therapy can reduce muscle fatigue and damage caused by electrical muscle stimulation. Researchers want to see if this non-invasive light treatment helps muscles recover faster.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18–45 - NCT07847424Recruiting
Daily heat therapy for people reducing physical activity
This study tests whether daily heat therapy (sauna sessions) can help maintain fitness and health when people temporarily reduce their physical activity. If you are a healthy adult, you might be able to join and contribute to understanding how heat affects the body.
Provo, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT07128602Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help quadriceps after ACL surgery
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation can improve thigh muscle function in women recovering from ACL reconstruction. If you are between 2 and 6 months post-surgery, you may be able to join.

Study of activity and muscle function in children with scoliosis
This study looks at how children’s activity levels and muscle performance change in different scoliosis treatments (surgery, bracing, or healthy peers). It uses motion sensors and an ultrasound-based test to better understand what treatments may do to the body’s muscles.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for muscle activity?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 102 recruiting muscle activity studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a muscle activity trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a muscle activity trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
