Filter by:Randomized, two-way, two-period, single oral dose, open-label, crossover, bioequivalence study to compare Ibuprofen/ Paracetamol tablets (200mg Ibuprofen/ 500mg Paracetamol) versus Nuromol® tablets (200mg Ibuprofen/ 500mg Paracetamol) in healthy subjects under fasting condition.
This study will unpack the behavioral intervention for migraine and determine the optimum combinations. In addition, the study will test preference and self-selection effects during the trial.
The purpose is to investigate whether the Blue Cut for Night filter is better at reducing migraine compared to the FL-41 filter or a filter blocking light below 500 nm. A control group will use clear lenses without filter. This is a controlled, randomized and double-blind trial.
The primary aim of this research is to objectively assess the impact of virtual reality (VR) technology on pain symptoms in tension-type headache patients. This study is designed to understand the potential of VR in the treatment of tension-type headaches, exploring its ability to reduce pain severity and improve patients' quality of life.
This will be a randomized double blind cross over interventional trial to determine if Avulux lenses are able to reduce headache symptoms in patients
Chronic pain (CP) is a substantial healthcare challenge with considerable economic costs. Recently, the term Nociplastic Pain (NP) has been introduced as a third descriptor of mechanisms related to CP. NP describes conditions that arise from altered nociception despite no clear evidence of actual or threatened tissue damage. It represents a new way of describing somatoform painful conditions, originating from altered central-nervous pathways (e.g., central sensitization) and with the important involvement of clinical psychological factors. Among nociplastic chronic syndromes have been included fibromyalgia (FM), chronic migraine (CM) and vulvodynia (VU). These chronic pain disorders have been usually studied separately, although the high comorbidity rates. Many studies evidenced the role of psychosocial variables in the onset and maintenance of the burden related to these conditions. Among them, personality traits, defense mechanisms, central sensitization, and childhood traumatic experiences may play a pivotal role in the onset of the NP. The first aim of this study is to highlight possible psychosocial clusters of variables that are specific for each condition (FM, CM, and VU). A second aim, to improve the tailored psychological treatment devoted to these conditions, is to explore the association between FM, CM, and VU with depression, anxiety, somatization, quality of life, alexithymia, social support, sexual satisfaction, and functioning. This will make it possible to identify specifically for each condition the areas of greatest interest that can be investigated and treated in clinical intervention. To identify specific descriptors, NP conditions will be compared with a control group of subjects reporting other types of CP (e.g., knee arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis). The study involves the collection of data from a self-administered questionnaire in several Italian centers specializing in the above-mentioned clinical conditions under the guidance of the research team of the Department of Dynamic and Clinical Psychology and Health Studies, PI Professor Federica Galli.
Introduction: Kinesiophobia is a common symptom associated with high levels of disability and has also been observed in patients with headache. However, the relationship between kinesiophobia and clinical factors in this population is unknown. Objective: We aimed to investigate the relationship between kinesiophobia and fear of falling, quality of life, and physical activity in children with headache. Methods: We included 127 children aged 6-18 years with headache complaints in our study. The Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS) was used to assess kinesiophobia, the International Falls Efficacy Scale (IFSES) was used to assess fear of falling, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)- short form was used to measure physical activity, and the Quality of Life Scale for Children (QOLS) was used to assess quality of life. A visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess pain intensity.
An observational study will be conducted to evaluate the differences in headache characteristics between a subgroup of cervicogenic headache patients with a positive and negative flexion-rotation test at the C1-C2 level. Differences may guide future treatment allocation and the use of more individualized treatment options.
This is a prospective, multi-center, unblinded study in patients with migraine (≥ 8 MMDs/month) requiring preventive treatment. Enrolled patients will receive DAX administered subcutaneously using an established, published, legacy injection paradigm (referred to herein as the "standard paradigm"). The safety and efficacy outcome measures will be assessed at selected dosing segments during the 24-week treatment phase.
The purpose of this research study is to develop a model to help distinguish patients at high-risk for developing persistent post-traumatic headache from patients who experience headache recovery. Researchers will do this by comparing the brain images, clinical data, and speech of healthy controls to people who have been diagnosed with post-traumatic headache.
