Study muscle changes in people with cerebral palsy
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how muscles work in the body in people with cerebral palsy or an acquired brain injury. It may help researchers understand muscle structure and changes over time, which could guide future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have cerebral palsy or an acquired brain injury
- Your neurological condition is not progressive (not getting steadily worse over time)
Quick eligibility check

This study follows children with cerebral palsy (and sometimes acquired brain injury) to learn how the muscles look and change over time at a very small, microscopic level. The results may help researchers better understand what’s happening in the muscles and guide future treatments.
This study looks at how muscles are affected in children and teens with cerebral palsy or an acquired brain injury. Researchers take a small muscle tissue sample during surgery that you were already having for medical reasons, to better understand muscle changes.
This study uses an MRI scan and movement measurements to better understand muscle tightness (spasticity) in children with cerebral palsy. It may help researchers improve how spasticity is evaluated and modeled to support future treatments.
This study looks at how the brain changes over time in people with cerebral palsy by reviewing MRI scans done as part of their regular care. It aims to understand brain health in adults with cerebral palsy.
This study tests whether simple 'brain gym' exercises can help children with cerebral palsy who have tightness on one side. It's for kids ages 6 to 8 who can walk but have mild muscle stiffness.
This study is looking at how common different health problems are in children with cerebral palsy, and which problems often happen together. It may help clinicians plan better care by understanding the most frequent additional needs.
