Filter by:This study aims to reveal whether there is an impairment in the sympathetic regulation of muscle spindle sensitivity in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
The purpose of the stud will be to compare the effect of pressure release with thoracic spine manipulation on pain intensity level and pain pressure threshold, thoracic spine ROM and physical function onactive rhomboids muscle trigger point in myofascial pain syndrome.
The goal of fibromyalgia Treatment is to relieve the pain and improve quality of life and physical function which need a Final Version: April 2019Research Template 3 multifaceted treatment approach involving non pharmacological pain management and medicine Lyftgot perineural injection therapy "lyftgot PIT" previously known as neural prolotherapy , is a method of injection treatment designed and developed by DR Lyftgot from new Zealand to treat the neurogenic inflammation and the neuropathic pain caused by the sensocrine small nerve fiber .PIT is based on the injection of small amount of dextrose 5%in a neutral PH sterile water solution in the subcutaneous tissue around the sick nerve to correct the neuroglycopenia and to inhibit the neurogenic inflammation.
The purpose of this study is verify the effects of a 8 weeks strength training, on balance, neuromuscular performance and symptomatology of fibromyalgia.
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.
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].
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome characterized by chronic and widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue sleep disturbances and cognitive and somatic symptoms. It is commonly conjectured that central sensitization is physiological hallmark of FM. Therefore, centrally acting medications including antidepressants and anticonvulsants are used to treat FM via downregulating dorsal horn sensitization and systemic hyperexcitability.However, those drugs are limited in clinical practice resulting from dose-limiting adverse effects and incomplete drug efficacy.Shugan Dingtong decoction(SGDTD) is a Chinese herbal formula and has been used for treatment of FM in clinical practice many years. However, few research can provide high-quality evidence on the efficacy and safety of SGDTD for the treatment of FM. Therefore, a parallel-group randomized controlled trial was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SGDTD on FM.
This is study designed to confirm the effectiveness of the Sana Device in patients with pain due to fibromyalgia on quality of life as measured by the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire Revised (FIQR). It is a two arm study in which subjects will be randomly assigned to either active device group or sham-controlled group.
The present project will evaluate through a randomised controlled clinical trial with 6-month follow-up, the efficacy and cost-utility (6-month time horizon) of the multicomponent FIBROWALK programme in an online (i.e., FIBRO-On) and outdoor (i.e., FIBRO-Out) adjunctive to usual care (HC) format, as compared to HC. In order to determine the mechanisms of action of the clinical effects of the interventions studied 6 months after the start of treatment, pre-post changes will be evaluated in various psychological variables considered to be mediators from a theoretical point of view, as well as in immuno-inflammatory markers with evidence of alteration in FM and/or potentially modifiable by the interventions proposed (i.e. IL-6, CXCL8, IL-17A, IL-4, IL-10, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein). In the field of personalised treatment in chronic pain, the design of the present study with 3 treatment branches will also make it possible to establish whether certain patient profiles or baseline psychobiological characteristics can predict the short- and medium-term clinical response to the treatments studied.
Pathologies in the trapezius muscle and rhomboid muscle are important in the course and treatment of the disease in patients with myofascial pain syndrome.
