The goal of this observational study is to determine the relationship between Lymphedema and Myofascial Pain Syndrome in Breast Cancer Patients. The main questions it aims to answer: - Is there a relationship between the stage of lymphedema and the frequency of accompanying myofascial pain syndrome in the breast cancer patients? - Does the existence of lymphedema in breast cancer patients affect the distribution and the pain threshold values of trigger points seen in Myofascial Pain Syndrome? - What is the impact of Myofascial pain syndrome seen in breast cancer associted lymhedema patients on upper extremity function and quality of life?
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome with clinical symptoms involving multiple systems. The efficacy of current treatments is inadequate, and more alternative modalities are needed for the management of FM patients. The parasympathetic vagus nerve innervates and integrates sensory, motor, and autonomic systems and has been suggested to play a role in pain modulation. The role of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) as a treatment option for FM patients is yet to be investigated. The investigators propose to examine the hypothesis that vagus nerve stimulation could improve pain and related comorbid symptoms for FM patients.
The objectives of this study are: Firstly, to investigate the association between psychiatric disorders and functional somatic disorder (FSD). Secondly, to investigate whether psychiatric disorders are risk factors for newly developed (incident) FSD after a 5-year follow-up period.
In this study, yoga, aerobic exercise, resistance exercise training in female individuals with fibromyalgia syndrome; It was aimed to compare their effectiveness on fatigue, quality of life and pain.
Fibromyalgia is a syndrome associated with fatigue and chronic pain, leading to significant physical limitations and impaired quality of life. There are several challenges that complicate the diagnosis and management of fibromyalgia. The etiology is not well defined, as there are several proposed factors that may trigger the genesis of pain in fibromyalgia including physical and/or emotional life stressors, and genetic predispositions involving neuromodulator pathways. Chronic pain in fibromyalgia arises in the absence of tissue pathology, and consequently a lack of consensus on reliable diagnostic criteria. Understanding the neurophysiology of fibromyalgia would aid in the discovery of objective biomarkers for diagnosis. Therefore, the goals of this study are to: 1. Compare the neurophysiological responses in fibromyalgia compared to healthy controls. 2. Determine whether a two-week rTMS protocol will alter pain in individuals with fibromyalgia.
Occlusive training in people with fibromyalgia
The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of Empowered Relief for Youth with chronic pain (ER-Y). ER-Y is a single-session pain management class for youth focused on pain science education and teaching self-regulatory skills for pain management based on the evidence-based adult ER class. Feasibility and acceptability of ER-Y will be assessed post-class. Preliminary efficacy will be assessed by administering surveys at baseline, 4-weeks, 8-weeks, and 12-weeks post class.
Although there are many studies evaluating adherence to supervised walking programs in patients with fibromyalgia (FM), there are limited studies evaluating adherence to unsupervised walking programs.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of dry needling treatment (DN) and ozone treatment on pain and functionality in individuals with myofascial pain syndrome affecting the upper trapezius (UT) region.
