The primary objective of this study is to examine a single-session, 2-hour group intervention provided to a population of transgender or gender-diverse patients with chronic pain prior to gender-affirming surgery, to determine if participants who receive the intervention have less pain-related distress compared to participants randomly assigned to the control group.
This study will sequentially evaluate three novel and scalable interventions for at-risk individuals on long term opioid therapy for chronic pain: (1) low-dose transdermal buprenorphine initiation without a period of opioid withdrawal; (2) a brief Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for pain (CBI); and (3) "accelerated" rTMS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, by examining standardized repeated measures of clinical outcomes at baseline, during treatment, and at 4-, 12-, 24- and 52-week follow-up.
A randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted, involving a psychoeducational activity as the intervention. There will be a control group of patients with non-cancer chronic pain who will continue their usual treatment. The trial will end after 3 months. Pain, well-being, medication management, mood, self-esteem, and quality of life will be compared just before starting the workshop with the status at the end of the workshop (one month later) to assess the immediate effect, and three months later to evaluate the medium-term effect. These measurements will be taken in both the control and intervention groups. Additionally, for the intervention group, a follow-up will be conducted six months after the workshop ends to assess the long-term effect duration. This study does not allow blinding of patients or professionals conducting the intervention, but the person analyzing the data to compare the effect produced in the control and intervention groups will be blinded. Therefore, it is an observer-blind evaluation.

The big gap is about the quantity adequate and/or recommended exercise volume, despite some studies with exercise volumes different resistance trainings show improvements, we do not have a direction, besides We still do not know whether there is a preference for these patients in different resistance training volumes.

Depression is characterized by behavioral, cognitive and emotional changes. Depression can have a negative impact on decreasing quality of life because in many cases it occurs long-term. Chronic pain is often accompanied by various mental disorders, of which depression is the most common accompanying mental disorder. Chronic pain and depression themselves influence each other and are closely related, with globally around 30% to 45% of patients with chronic pain present with depression, and around 52% to 65% patients with depression suffer from chronic pain. There are various therapeutic options for treating depression that aim to shorten depressive episodes and relieve symptoms. Multimodal therapy is needed in treating depression with chronic pain because there are biopsychosocial aspects involved. Pharmacological therapy has long-term side effects and the risk of drug dependence. Apart from that, depression patients with chronic pain, often receive pharmacological therapy such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and opioids where the side effects and risk of drug dependence are higher. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a therapeutic modality that is relatively safe and effective in treating depression in chronic pain. In various studies it has been proven that acupuncture is an efficient and safe therapy for chronic pain patients with depression. Auricular acupuncture using pr ess needles has minimal pain and can be applied longer on acupuncture points. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the auricular needle press on Patient with Depression Symptoms in Chronic Pain.

There's also a collaborative study between the medical acupuncture department and the psychiatry department. This study includes 60 participants who will be randomly allocated into 2 groups, the press needle and sham press needle groups. The press needles will be placed at 6 auricular points bilaterally : MA-TF1 Shenmen, MA-IC7 Heart, and MA-IT1 Cingulate gyrus. The outcomes that will be assessed in this study are Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) score and Heart Rate Variability (HRV).
