NCT ID: NCT05905159 Completed - Fibromyalgia Clinical Trials

Attentional Bias Modification in Fibromyalgia Patients (ABM)

ABM
Start date: January 12, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There is a growing interest in the potential benefits of attentional bias modification (ABM) training in chronic pain patients. However, studies examining the effectiveness of ABM programs in fibromyalgia patients have demonstrated inconclusive effects on both behavioral indices and clinical symptoms. Underlying neural dynamics of ABM effects could yield additional insights but remain yet unexplored. Current study, therefore, aimed investigating the effects of ABM training on known neural indicators of attentional bias to pain using electroencephalography (EEG). The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of ABM training on known neural indicators of attentional bias to pain using electroencephalography (EEG) in fibromyalgia patients The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Are fibromyalgia patients sensitive to ABM procedures? - What are the neural indices associated with ABM procedures? - Do ABM procedures transfer of effects on the clinical symptomatology in fibromyalgia patients? Participants will performes five sessions consisting of a modified dot-probe task in which patients were trained to avoid facial pain expressions, whereas in the control group participants will performes five sessions consisting of a standard dot-probe task. Potential ABM training effects will be evaluated by comparing a single pre- and post-treatment session, in which event-related potentials (ERPs) will be recorded in response to three experimental tasks (standard dot-probe, RIR, and visual tasks). Furthermore, patients will fill a series of self-report questionnaires assessing anxiety, depression, pain-related worrying, fear of pain, fatigue and pain status. Researchers will compare two fibromyalgia patients groups that will enrolled and randomly assigned to an ABM training in order to see attentional improvements in the training fibromyalgia group.

Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to analyse the effect of an intervention program based on hamstring flexibility on the extensibility and curvatures of the spine in dancers. Participants will be dance student with ten years of experience that will undergo a program of stretching four times per week during seven weeks, followed by a detraining period, and a retraining period of three weeks. There will be a pre-test, a post-test and two re-tests after the intervention. The results will be compared with a control group of dancers that will not take part in the stretching program.

NCT ID: NCT05904392 Completed - Anxiety and Fear Clinical Trials

Effect of Music Therapy on the Anxiety Level of Patients During the Administration of Ocular Intravitreal Injections

Start date: December 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction Ocular intravitreal injection is a widely used ophthalmic invasive technique to administer medication directly inside the patient's eye. Despite being usually a quick and painless intervention, some patients report nervousness and anxiety before and during the procedure. Music therapy could help in assessing this discomfort, as previous studies have shown it can beneficial, specially helping to reduce anxiety levels. Objective This study aims to assess the effect of music therapy on patients undergoing intravitreal injections and how it affects their anxiety. Methods This is a randomized, prospective, single blind, clinical trial. Patients will be divided into two groups. Group A patients will listen to classical music during the procedure (intervention). Group B patients (control), will not listen to music during the procedure. All other aspects of the procedure will be the same for both groups. To analyze the impact music therapy, patients will fill in the STAI anxiety questionnaire and will be evaluated with the pain visual analogue scale (VAS) before and after the injection procedure. Expected results Subjects that undergo the procedure with music therapy are expected to experience less anxiety that the ones that do not. Less pain perception is also expected.

NCT ID: NCT05902949 Completed - Ankle Disease Clinical Trials

Analysis of Postural Control in Children Suffering From Triceps Suralis Shortening.

Start date: June 15, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The central nervous system (CNS) coordinates balance through the visual, vestibular, and somatoproprioceptive systems, which produce muscle activation for postural control. Among the important muscle activations for postural control are those produced in the ankle joint, which is crucial for maintaining postural control in sports settings, along with the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. Studies show that children who practice sports improve their postural stability and accelerate sensory maturation, which can affect the development of the lower limb extremity, specifically the insertional musculature of the ankle and foot. The present study aims to analyze postural control in school-aged children with triceps suralis retraction and assess the effectiveness of treatment with stretching versus a heel pad for 3 and 6 months. Additionally, the study will analyze whether the physical activity the children engage in influences their stability

NCT ID: NCT05902585 Completed - Virtual Reality Clinical Trials

Virtual Reality in the Management of Pain in Pediatrics: a Multi-center Randomized Clinical Trial (RealPED)

RealPED
Start date: February 26, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test if the use of virtual reality glasses reduces the pain and anxiety that children feel when they perform a blood test. Children between 7 and 12 years old from 5 health centers and 2 hospitals will participate, and the children will be divided into two groups. In the control group, the analysis will be done in the usual way (for example, distracting with questions) and in the intervention group, the analysis will be done while the children use virtual reality. The satisfaction of parents and nursing will also be analyzed.

NCT ID: NCT05898113 Completed - Healthy Nutrition Clinical Trials

Effect of the Intake of Corbella Extra Virgin Olive Oil on the Microbiota-gut-brain Axis in Healthy Adults (HEVOOC)

HEVOOC
Start date: June 19, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The consumption of the improved extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) of the Corbella variety could have a beneficial effect on the microbiota-intestine-brain axis (MGBA). Olive oil contains polyphenols that are not present in other oils, notably oleocanthal and oleacein, which behave similarly to ibuprofen and have a protective effect on some neurodegenerative diseases. The polyphenols of the oil present prebiotic characteristics, at the level of the intestinal microbiota, which metabolizes them forming bioactive metabolites that can have a modulating effect on the MGBA, improving brain health. In this study, the researchers seek to identify the benefits of the consumption of Corbella variety EVOO on MGBA in healthy participants. The overall benefit of the study would be to achieve knowledge that would allow its future applicability to prevent and improve certain diseases and in general contribute to optimal health.

NCT ID: NCT05897411 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

Deconditioning of Acquired Food Aversion

Start date: January 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background. Aversive conditioning impairs the rewarding value of a comfort meal. Our aim is to demonstrate the potential effect of deconditioning to reverse aversive conditioning and restore the hedonic postprandial response. Methods: A sham-controlled, randomised, parallel, single-blind study will be performed on 12 healthy women (6 per group). The rewarding value of a comfort meal will be measured at initial exposure, after aversive conditioning (masked administration of the same meal with a high-fat content) and after a deconditioning intervention (unmasking the aversive conditioning paradigm in the deconditioning group vs sham intervention in the control group). Digestive well-being (primary outcome) will be measured every 10 min before and 60 min after ingestion using graded scales. The effect of deconditioning (change from aversive conditioning to deconditioning) will be compared to sham deconditioning in the control group. Expected results: The comfort meal at first exposure will induce a pleasant postprandial experience, which will be impaired by aversive conditioning; this effect will be reverted by deconditioning and the hedonic value of the comfort meal will be restored.
