Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Autism

• Registration Number: NCT07134569
• Lead Sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if autism affect motor functions, including muscle strength, balance, and motor control? Additionally, understanding the motor functions, cognitive functions, and brain activation in individuals with autism, and verifying whether motor training can effectively improve muscle strength, balance, and motor control. The main questions aim to answer are:

\[primary hypothesis or outcome measure 1\]? \[primary hypothesis or outcome measure 2\]? If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare \[arm information\] to see if \[insert effects\].

Participants will \[describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, interventions they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items\].
