Investigators have previously shown that specific colors of light can alter nociception. Green light emitting diode exposure (GLED) provides long-lasting antinociception in rodents, through the visual system. No adverse effects were noted, and motor performance was not impaired. Investigator clinical trials have shown GLED is also effective in decreasing pain intensity of fibromyalgia patients and decreasing the number of headache-days per month in migraine patients. However, investigators do not yet understand the mechanisms by which GLED reduces pain. Understanding the mechanisms of action of GLED will provide additional support for using light therapy as both a treatment and as a possible diagnostic tool. While investigators do not fully understand the mechanisms of action of GLED, investigators do know that it is centrally mediated. To better elucidate the mechanism of action for GLED, investigators propose a single-blinded randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial to elucidate the central mechanism(s) of action that GLED therapy has in improving fibromyalgia pain, conducted by a team with a successful record of collaboration. Investigator's hypothesis is that GLED decreases neuroinflammation leading to modulation of the signaling in the ascending and descending pain pathways.
This study is a double-blinded randomized controlled trial with two arms, comparing a recorded mindfulness intervention to a control psycho-education audio. It is a monocentric study that will take place in Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV), a primary teaching hospital in Lausanne, Switzerland. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to the brief mindfulness intervention vs neutral audio intervention. The investigators involved in recruitment and testing will be blind to the intervention condition. A collaborator that is not involved in this study will prepare a coded randomized sequence of audio assignments, uploaded in Redcap. The audio will be played on a laptop or mp-player with a noise cancelling headset.
Fibromyalgia is a frequent chronic pain syndrome almost often affecting women and associating diffuse chronic musculoskeletal pain (for more than 3 months), fatigue and sleep disturbances. Other varied functional symptoms are associated with it, in particular cognitive disorders and a feeling of unrested awakening. Technological advances in virtual reality have led to recognition by the medical community as a way to improve pain and quality of life for patients. There is a growing body of evidence supporting the use of virtual reality as an adjunct therapy to reduce acute pain in patients during medical procedures in hospital settings. There may also be a role for virtual reality in patients with chronic pain.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of bilateral erector spina plane block application in myofascial pain syndrome.
Fibromyalgia is a syndrome characterized by chronic widespread pain at multiple tender points, joint stiffness, and systemic symptoms (e.g., mood disorders, fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, and insomnia) [14] without a well-defined underlying organic disease. Nevertheless, it can be associated with specific diseases such as rheumatic pathologies, psychiatric or neurological disorders, infections, and diabetes. The prevalence of fibromyalgia has been estimated to be around 1%-2% (3.4% for women and 0.5% for men) [5, 6].
A randomized trial of Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) is applied in fibromyalgia patients as compared with a control intervention consisting of stretching. Sessions of BBAT lasted 90 min each and took place twice a week form 12 weeks. The primary end point is a change in the biomarkers and neurotransmitters and the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire and the secondary end points include Visual Analog Scale, State Trait Anxiety inventory, Beck Depression Inventory. All assessments will be repeated at post treatment, 12 and 24 weeks and 1 year follow-up.
This is randomized controlled trial that investigated the effect of aerobic exercises in women with fibromyalgia. The study was performed in Abu-kabir central hospital - Al Sharquia, Egypt. The sample was recruited from the rheumatology department in Abu-kabir central hospital- Al Sharquia. Sixty women were included in the study based on the inclusion criteria. The first group (study group) included 30 participants who received aerobic exercise in addition to the prescribed medications. The second group (control group) included 30 participants who received the prescribed medications only. The outcome measures included visual analogue scale, Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire and cholesterol level. Assessment of outcomes were performed at baseline and after the end of treatment program.
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of duloxetine as monotherapy on biochemical markers and bone mineral density.
The purpose of this study is to assess brain activity under Psilocybin in a cohort of people with fibromyalgia.
