Psychoneuromentalism Disorder: A Medical Condition That Affects People With Psychological Impairments From Health Issues

PNMD
Start date: January 21, 2024
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

Psychoneuromentalism Disorder is a disorder arising in the mind; that is related to the mental and emotional state of a person. It is the science of mental life. The body has a natural design to heal itself. This is a mental phenomena that cannot be explained, until now. Psychoneuromentalism Disorder is a new condition resulting from behavioral impairments, neurodiversity, and neurobehavioral dysfunctions that are related to the mental and emotional state of a participant.

Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation as a Complementary Therapy to Exercise in Chronic Fatigue

PAF-tVNS
Start date: February 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Chronic fatigue is enhanced by adapted physical activity (APA) programs. Patients consulting on St Etienne hospital and suffering from fibromyalgia and long Covid benefit from a 4-6 week APA program, with 2 sessions per week. While most patients are improved by these exercise-training programs, for some the benefits remain very modest, and patients describe persistent fatigue. The literature unanimously describes the necessity of longer APA protocols (8-12 weeks, 2-3 sessions/week) for fatigue reduction in fibromyalgia and long Covid. However, it seems difficult to adhere to an optimal program as described in the literature for these fatigued patients. The investigators want to test a device that would both reduce fatigue and improve recovery between APA sessions, in order to gradually reach the recommendations for APA practice. Transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS) seems to be a promising approach. Thus, combining an APA intervention with a tVNS protocol could potentiate the expected and now well-known effect of exercise.

A Feasibility Study: Assessing Photobiomodulation in Myalgic Encephalomyelitis

LightMEup
Start date: February 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There is no cure or approved treatments for ME. Several causes have been implicated in ME, including poor mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of cells, producing energy. Therefore, loss of mitochondrial function and reduced energy production could be an explanation for the debilitating chronic fatigue that defines ME. The primary site of red light absorption in cells is the mitochondria. Mitochondrial red light absorption can boost energy production. Light therapy is already FDA approved for the treatment of acne, muscle and joint pain, arthritis, blood circulation issues and hair loss. This is the first study to trial the use of red light therapy in ME and results will help us understand if the use of red light therapy is accepted by ME patients. In past clinical trials the monitoring of symptom reduction/increase in ME patients was mainly done using symptom questionnaires. These questionnaires have not been specifically developed for ME symptoms and therefore the reliability of results is poor. This study will be assessing the use of a new symptom questionnaire developed specifically for ME and will also be trialling the use of other tools to measure symptom reduction/increase. In addition, this study will also trial the use of Mantal, an online remote research management portal. This is to improve accessibility of ME patients to research participation. Each ME participants involvement in the study should take approximately 7 weeks. Involvement is split into four phases: 1) baseline, 2) intervention, 3) follow-up and 4) feedback. Baseline assessments: - Week one: complete a 27-item questionnaire on functional capacity (FUNCAP27) and online cognitive function tests - Week two: participants are posted an activity monitor which they are to wear for seven days. Participants will complete a sleep diary (consensus sleep diary version E) for seven days Intervention: - Participants are posted the red lamp to use in their own homes during weeks three and four. Participants use the red lamp for two minutes, daily, each morning for a total of 14 days. Follow-up: - Weeks five and six - Repeating the baseline assessments Feedback: - Participants are asked to complete an online questionnaire during week seven.

A Multicenter, Adaptive, Randomized, doublE-blinded, Placebo-controlled Study in Participants With Long COVID-19: The REVIVE Trial

REVIVE
Start date: October 18, 2023
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Date of notification letter to the IRB informing start of recruitment activities: October 21, 2023. Long COVID is a multi-systemic condition comprising often severe and persistent symptoms (longer than 12 weeks) that follow a known episode of COVID-19 and cannot be explained by another medical condition. This condition is observed in up to 15% of all individuals after an acute episode of COVID-19, even in those who had a mild and oligosymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection. Around 40% of these patients present symptoms that significantly compromise their daily activities. There is increasing evidence that LONG COVID is accompanied by dysregulated, persistent and uncontrolled inflammation, often accompanied by the development of an autoreactive immune response, including autoantibodies. Symptoms can last months or years, particularly in cases of chronic fatigue syndrome, with significant proportions of individuals having significant chronic impairment, preventing the performance of work and social activities.

NCT ID: NCT06011135 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Exploring Worry in CFS/ME

Start date: October 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study will be building on the findings of Kalfas et al 2022 paper exploring the prevalence of generalised worry in patients with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) before and after Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). The research was conducted in South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust's (SLaM) Persistent Physical Symptoms Research and Treatment Unit. Previous research has indicated a bidirectional relationship between fatigue and worry (Kalfas et al., 2022); the findings of this paper suggest both that many ME/CFS patients experience comorbid problematic generalised worry and that there is a positive association between severity of worry and levels of fatigue (Kalfas et al, 2022). It appears that CBT for ME/CFS indirectly treats worry, however effect sizes are small to moderate, and treatment outcomes may improve if CBT treatments incorporate strategies that target generalised worry (Kalfas et al 2022). The aims of this project are to further explore worry in this group of patients through qualitative methods.

NCT ID: NCT06006715 Completed - Fibromyalgia Clinical Trials

Psychiatric Disorders and Functional Somatic Disorders

Start date: November 10, 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The objectives of this study are: Firstly, to investigate the association between psychiatric disorders and functional somatic disorder (FSD). Secondly, to investigate whether psychiatric disorders are risk factors for newly developed (incident) FSD after a 5-year follow-up period.

NCT ID: NCT05973136 Completed - Long COVID Clinical Trials

Telerehabilitation for Post COVID-19 Condition

Telecovie
Start date: April 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Telerehabilitation is a great alternative to offering care during a global pandemic. 85% of patients with COVID-19 report persistent symptoms up to 8 months after the infection. There are no clear recommendations for post-covid rehabilitation. The aims of the study are (1) to test the logistic aspect of implanting a hybrid rehabilitation program and (2) to evaluate the acceptability and the potential impact of the program on treating patients with functional limitations and persistent fatigue symptoms. It's a pre and post-study without a control group.

NCT ID: NCT05967494 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Discovering Trends in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Patients' Clinical Study Experiences

Start date: August 2024
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The study seeks to delve into the firsthand experiences of patients diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome who partake in a separate clinical trial featuring a specific medical intervention. The primary emphasis will be on meticulously tracking the rates of trial completion and withdrawal among these individuals. The data collected from this study will help improve future outcomes for all chronic fatigue syndrome patients as well as those in under-represented demographic groups.

NCT ID: NCT05967052 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Investigation of Treating Chronic Fatigue Syndrome After COVID With Pharmacotherapy (Pregabalin) or Complex Rehabilitation

POSTCOVID
Start date: October 24, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This is a single-center, prospective, randomized, double-blind (pharmacotherapy), placebo-controlled, and comprehensive rehabilitation phase II clinical trial to determine the usefulness of pregabalin in a new indication (post-COVID chronic fatigue syndrome). Patients will be randomized in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to pregabalin (75-300 mg daily in two divided doses), comprehensive rehabilitation with a placebo drug, comprehensive rehabilitation with pregabalin (75-300 mg in two divided doses), or placebo (two divided doses) for 6 months (177-187 days). There will be 4 outpatient visits to the research center and 12 telephone consultations. The procedures and assessments performed as part of the study are listed in the study schedule. It is planned to include 132 patients in the study, which, assuming a 10% level of non-completion of the program, will result in the examination of 120 patients (30 in each arm). Patients will be recruited during an outpatient medical consultation with a general practitioner or neurologist, psychiatrist, psychologist or other specialists, as well as with the use of information materials in the form of leaflets and advertisements on the Internet.
