Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effects of stellate ganglion block (SGB) in participants with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does SGB treatment improve symptoms of ME/CFS (e.g. brain fog, fatigue)? Do changes in symptoms go along with changes in blood or saliva? Participants will receive a total of six blocks over three weeks (one block on each side, one day apart, per week). Prior to treatment and at two points following treatment, participants will complete surveys, take a cognitive (puzzle type) test, and provide blood and saliva for analysis. Participants will measure their heart rate daily using a free smart phone app.
Chronic cancer-related fatigue (CCRF) is a disturbing condition that persists in up to 25% of cancer patients after completion of treatment. While mindfulness-based interventions are effective in relieving CCRF, these typically target the patient alone. Growing evidence suggests that including partners and targeting the dyadic context can increase and broaden the interventions' efficacy. The proposed study is a pilot trial testing the acceptability and potential efficacy of a mindfulness intervention directed at couples.
Fatigue is a common symptom and can be the most distressing symptom of a range of medical conditions. This Ecological Momentary Assessment study will investigate lived experiences of fatigue in detail in individuals with myeloma, long COVID, heart failure, and in healthy controls without fatigue. Participants will wear ECG patches and wrist-worn sensors that measure heart rate variability, activity levels, posture, and other parameters. They will self-rate their levels of fatigue four times daily and on-demand (when fatigue levels are noticeably good or troublesome). They will participate in an end of study interview and will have an optional feedback session with a researcher to make sense of the data they have provided.
The aim of this study is to investigate the anti-exercise-fatigue effects of rice protein RP-80NY in men
Study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of ponsegromab compared to placebo in patients with cancer, cachexia, and elevated GDF 15.
The SoFiT study is a randomized controlled trial examining the effects of a behaviour change guided lifestyle intervention on increasing adherence to the World Cancer Research Fund cancer prevention guidelines, compared to the wait-list usual care group, on diminishing cancer-related fatigue in colorectal cancer survivors.
In this investigation, participants perform simulated occupational work during which the task performance will be logged. This research investigates the effect of peripheral fatigue and a passive shoulder exoskeleton on the task performance.
Chronic fatigue is highly prevalent in patients with conditions characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, also known as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). Chronic fatigue has multiple causes, including alterations in immune system or gut microbiota, psychological factors, and sleeping problems. Unsurprisingly, fatigue has been associated with decreased quality of life, general well-being, and work productivity. Very few patients experience resolution in fatigue, emphasizing the need for new therapies. It has been shown that lifestyle interventions can improve most of fatigue-driving factors. Hence, the investigators hypothesize that a multimodal lifestyle intervention focusing on nutrition, sleep, stress, and exercise will improve chronic fatigue in patients with IBD. During this multicenter, controlled trial, the investigators will compare a multimodal lifestyle intervention to a standard therapy (i.e., an informational brochure on how to cope with chronic fatigue).
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a key element in the management of people with chronic respiratory disease. A properly followed supervised physical training program in sarcoidosis is safe and has no absolute contraindications. Fatigue can also be associated with sarcoidosis for different reasons. Individualized rehabilitation training can improve the symptoms of patients with sarcoidosis. There is no study in the literature investigating the effectiveness of one-legged exercises that reduce peripheral muscle use, in patients with sarcoidosis. In our study, these two exercise methods will be compared by applying one-legged exercise training and two-legged exercise training. The effect of one-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in sarcoidosis patients will be examined. The primary aim of our study is to compare the effects of one-legged exercise training, which is a current exercise approach, and two-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in patients with sarcoidosis. The secondary aim is to examine the effect of this exercise training on peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-I) is a common treatment for insomnia that does not use medications. While CBT-I is effective for insomnia, it does not tend to improve the waking symptom of fatigue. Another treatment, Bright Light Therapy, is used for treating seasonal depression and sleep disorders, and may improve fatigue and physical activity in individuals with PAH. The purpose of this study to assess the effects of Bright Light Therapy compared to CBT-I to treat insomnia and fatigue in patients with PAH.
