To assess the safety and tolerability of a 400 mg ibuprofen/100 mg caffeine tablet in comparison to a 400 mg ibuprofen tablet and a placebo tablet.
This study will be a comparative design between 2 groups of subjects attending classes on back education in an urban setting. Participants will be randomized to either an individual one-on-one back school session or to the 8 group sessions.
The Purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of Sogyeonghwalhyeol-tang(SGHH) on Korean Patients With Work Related Chronic Low Back Pain
This study is designed to examine brain properties for placebo response in chronic back pain patients. The investigators have preliminary data indicating that, in blinded clinical trial studies with neutral instructions regarding treatment, chronic back pain (CBP) patients can be subdivided into placebo responders and non-responders, and these differences are PREDICTABLE a priori, by brain activity. The results imply that CBP placebo may have clinical utility and that its properties can be studied by human brain imaging techniques. In Phase I of the study, the investigators seek to identify brain imaging parameters that predict the propensity for the placebo response in an independent CBP cohort. In Phase II, the investigators will evaluate the interaction between placebo response and medication treatment in individuals stratified as placebo responders versus non-responders. This research is designed to critically assess the neurobiology of placebo analgesia for chronic pain in a partially-blind clinical trial.
The incidence of chronic nonspecific low back pain is the highest in the world population and can lead to disability. One of the standards treatments for this condition is the segmental stabilization exercises, as well as trunk stretching. However, there is no study that associates these two treatments for nonspecific low back pain. This study will be a controlled clinical trial, randomized, prospective, single-blind with a quantitative approach that compares the efficacy of the association between segmental stabilization + trunk stretching with segmental stabilization + placebo stretching in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain.
The relevance of this study is to determine the efficacy of two osteopathic techniques - Thrust Technique and Muscle Energy Technique (MET) - in improving of neuromuscular component of the trunk and clinical symptoms in adult workers with Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP). Few studies have investigated and compared the physiological responses of these techniques quantitatively, and no published study has compared their effects in low back pain subjects in terms of symptoms, postural balance and muscle activation. The main outcomes will be computed by electromyography measurement so that to assess the trunk neuromuscular activation pattern as well as by force platform parameters for determining of postural control. Clinical symptoms such as pain intensity, perception of disability and fear and avoidance will also be computed. This is the first study to compare these two osteopathic techniques using the main biological outcomes related to trunk neuromuscular function.
The burden of low back pain more than doubled in the last 20 years, probably caused by biopsychosocial factors. Some noninvasive treatments have been applied in individuals with chronic nonspecific low back pain as spinal manipulation and pain education. However, it is not already clear the neurophysiological effects of these treatments.The purpose of this research is to verify the effects of the technique of spinal manipulation and pain education in individuals with chronic low back pain
The purposes of this study include 1) determine clinical utility of clinical observation of aberrant movement patterns during functional trunk and pelvic movements in asymptomatic individuals and patients with non-specific low back pain, 2) characterize trunk neuromuscular control in asymptomatic individuals and patients with non-specific low back pain, and 3) determine the appropriate physical therapy intervention that addresses trunk neuromuscular control deficits in patients with non-specific low back pain.
The relevance of this study is given by the feasibility to assess the effect of an intervention program based on the postural control and trunk neuromuscular activity, comparing two methods: stabilization exercises vs. back strengthening exercises, in athletes with low back pain. The main outcomes will be computed by electromyography measurement so that to assess the trunk neuromuscular activation pattern as well as by force platform parameters for determining of postural control. Clinical symptoms such as pain intensity, perception of disability and fear and avoidance will also be computed. This is the first study to compare two intervention methods using the main biological outcomes related to trunk neuromuscular function.
The study aimed to explore the effect of the dopamine agonist apomorphine on spontaneous pain intensity and evoked cold clinical and experimental pain in patients with lumbar radicular neuropathic pain (NP). Patients received either apomorphine or placebo in a randomized double-blinded manner.
