Filter by:The purpose of this study was to identify clinical characteristics and estimate the prevalence of Juvenile Primary Fibromyalgia in a female inpatient psychiatric population. The secondary purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of an intervention (psychoeducational seminar and relaxation technique) on reducing the symptoms of Juvenile Primary Fibromyalgia Syndrome. We looked at the short-term and long-term effects of this intervention in comparison to the control (skin care seminar).
Determine if T3 - the active form of thyroid hormone - is beneficial in fibromyalgia. Determine the feasibility and promise of an appropriately powered future prospective randomized controlled study of using T3 (the active form of thyroid hormone) for the treatment of fibromyalgia. We specifically aim to assess the feasibility, cost, obstacles and promise of conducting a prospective controlled study in the future.
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the effect of Lyrica on Wake after sleep onset in subjects with fibromyalgia with sleep maintenance disturbance (on polysomnogram)
The acupuncture treatment in this study is particularly aimed at reducing the pain and other negative health events such as emotional trauma and disability associated with Fibromyalgia, while improving the quality of life and promoting general health.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety two oral doses of etoricoxib (60 mg and 90 mg) daily in acute soft tissue rheumatism affecting the shoulder.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether education about the neurophysiology of pain is able to improve central pain inhibition in patients with Fibromyalgia.
The purpose of this research is to obtain data or information on the safety and effectiveness of low dose naltrexone (LDN) for treating the symptoms of juvenile primary fibromyalgia syndrome. This is a dose finding study to find whether LDN helps the symptoms of juvenile fibromyalgia, and at what dose it does so.
This study, will compare pregabalin with placebo for the duration of 15 weeks to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pregabalin in patients with fibromyalgia.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of the long-term use of pregabalin at doses up to 450 mg/day in patients with fibromyalgia who have completed 16 weeks of dosing in Study A0081208 (NCT00830167).
Objective: Randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, clinical trial to examine the effects of the food additive glutamate (in the form of MSG) on IBS and fibromyalgia. Setting and Subjects: The Fibromyalgia Research Database at OHSU will be utilized to identify and recruit fibromyalgia patients who also have IBS to OHSU study centers. Intervention: Approximately 60 male and female subjects aged 18-75 will be placed on a 1-month glutamate-free elimination diet. Those that respond positively to the diet (we are estimating 30-40 subjects), will then be randomized to receive either a citrus drink containing 5 grams of MSG; or placebo (the citrus drink alone)on three consecutive days one week apart. The investigators are hypothesizing that those who react positively to the elimination diet will have symptom occurrence statistically more frequently when given the glutamate challenge, than when given placebo.
