Filter by:This study is a randomized controlled study. A total of 75 patients between the ages of 20-50 who have a diagnosis of acute myofacial pain syndrome in the trapezius muscle and have pain for a maximum of 5 days were included in the study. Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups. Group 1 patients received kinesio tape method (25 patients), group 2 patients received trigger point injection method (25 patients), and group 3 patients received neural therapy injection method (25 patients). A 10-15 cm sized I band was applied to the trapezius muscles of the first group patients with the patient's neck in lateral flexion. Then, while the patient's neck is flexed, a Y-shaped 15-20 cm tape will be affixed between C1-7 with the arms of the Y up, and I tape of 5-10 cm is attached on the arms. In group 2 patients, 1 cc lidocaine diluted with 4 cc saline (SF) was applied to the trigger points palpated manually in the trapezius muscles. After the trigger point was squeezed between the thumb and index finger, a few cc of local anesthetic mixture was applied into the trigger point with the injector and exited. In the 3rd group patients, a few cc local anesthetic mixture will be applied intradermally over the trigger point without entering into the trigger points palpated manually in the trapezius muscles. Patients were checked 72 hours and 1 week after the first applications. The pain at rest and during movement of the patients in all 3 groups were evaluated with a visual analog scale (VAS 10 cm). The number of trigger points was determined by the physician by hand palpation. Pressure pain threshold was evaluated with the algometer device. Disability assessment of the patients was made using the neck pain disability index. evaluations were made at the beginning of treatment, 72 hours after and 1 week after treatment.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common malignant disease in childhood. Today more than 90% of children and 75% of adults (18-45 years) survive ALL. The enzyme Asparaginase (Asp) is an indispensable part of the multiagent treatment of ALL. Treatment related severe acute toxicities are common. Especially in teenagers and adults, thromboembolism is one of the most common acute toxicities and may result in post thrombotic syndrome (PTS) or pulmonary hypertension. The knowledge about these late effects is limited, including for ALL patients.
This study is to investigate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of Sulindac (HLX-0201) and Gaboxadol (HLX-0206) in males with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) with confirmed full FMR1 mutation treated over a 10 week period in an outpatient setting.
The investigators hypothesize that the use of a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) can reduce glycemic variability assessed by coefficient of variation (CV) during the acute phase of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients with diabetes treated by insulin infusion. The purpose of this project is to assess the impact of the use of CGMS on glycemic variability in diabetic patients with ACS . This is a randomized, multicenter (2 centers), open study. The patients included, as soon as possible, after admission will be randomized before the beginning of insulin therapy with intravenous insulin .
The menstrual cycle is one of the most important signs of a functioning reproductive system in women, but sometimes this cycle is associated with signs and symptoms that cause physical and psychological problems for women. Considering the high prevalence of PMS among women and the complications of this syndrome on work performance, social and interpersonal relationships and family, and its role in limiting education, social and economic progress in society, 8 weeks of online yoga exercises given online to female students were helpful in reducing PMS symptoms The aim was to evaluate the efficacy and effect on inflammation parameters. The study was planned as an interventional, single-blind, randomized controlled study. The sample size of this study was calculated based on the latest research available on the effect of exercise on PMS (Kamalifard et al.2017). A power analysis was performed in student PMS scores between exercise and control groups and to expect a difference of 80% strength and α = 0.50 and 30%. 80% power (1 - ß) minimum 18 students for each group, total 36 students will be included in the sample.
Mutations in USH2A give rise to two phenotypes: Usher syndrome type 2a (USH2A) and nonsyndromic RP (USH2A associated nsRP). Usher syndrome is the most common form of congenital deafblindness. Patients with Usher syndrome are hearing impaired or profoundly deaf from birth and this can be rehabilitated with hearing aids or a cochlear implant. Furthermore, these patients develop retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a slowly progressive type of retinal degeneration that usually starts in the first or second decade of life. In both USH2A and nsRP patients the disease leads to severe visual impairment and eventually blindness around the 50th-70th year of life. There are no treatment options for the retinal degeneration. We do not know if they also suffer from balance complaints. Currently, genetic therapy for Usher syndrome type 2 and USH2A associated nsRP is in development. But to measure the effect of a (genetic) therapy, it is crucial to know the detailed natural course of the visual and hearing deterioration over time. Several genetic therapy studies for other disorders are currently delayed, because the natural history of the disease has not been studied in detail previously. The main objective is to map the natural course of the visual and hearing deterioration in Usher Syndrome 2 and USH2A associated nsRP for upcoming genetic therapy studies. Secondary objectives are: 1) To determine the necessary type of (combined) examinations, the sample size and length of studies (in years) essential to evaluate future genetic therapy in Usher syndrome. 2) To improve counselling of patients with Usher syndrome type 2 and USH2A associated nsRP with detailed information on the prognosis. 3) To identify additional etiological factors that explain variability in hearing impairment by adding questionnaires and psychophysical audiometric tests; and to assess the vestibular phenotype in Usher syndrome type 2 and USH2A associated nsRP patients. This is a longitudinal, prospective natural history study. The study population consists of healthy human volunteers, 16 - 55 yr old with a confirmed genetic diagnosis of Usher Syndrome type 2 or and USH2A associated nsRP. The main study endpoint is the natural course of the visual and hearing deterioration in Usher Syndrome type 2 and USH2A associated nsRP, over a time span of 4 years. There are no risks associated with participation.
This study investigated the utilization of CranioSacral Therapy (CST) in patients with Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) and capture patient-reported perceptions of their lived experiences of treatment effect upon their symptoms. The first part part was a 10 year chart review of patients who sought out CST to capture data from the medical records. The second part was an anonymous post treatment survey.
This study will examine the efficacy and safety of tivanisiran sodium eye drops versus vehicle after a 2-week run-in phase when dosed once daily for 3 months in subjects with signs and symptoms of dry eye disease (DED) due to Sjögren's Syndrome.
The investigators planned this research to elucidate if there is any efficacy of montelukast, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, in steroid sensitive childhood onset NS to help prevent relapses. This study was done to know the role of leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) montelukast in preventing relapses in idiopathic childhood nephrotic syndrome (NS)
Children with Down syndrome often present with problems of posture & balance and mobility. Balance training is an important component of physical activity interventions, with growing evidence that it can be beneficial for children with DS. Objective: To determine the effect core stability exercises and balance training in postural control among Down syndrome.
