Filter by:Significant clinical improvements of ME/CFS symptoms were observed in two patients with long-standing ME/CFS who received adjuvant chemotherapy including cyclophosphamide for breast cancer, also in one ME/CFS patient who received chemotherapy including iphosphamide for Hodgkin lymphoma. Three pilot ME/CFS patients were thereafter treated with six intravenous infusions four weeks apart, in two of these with a significant clinical response. The hypothesis is that a subset of ME/CFS patients have an activated immune system, and that ME/CFS symptoms may be alleviated by treatment with cyclophosphamide as intravenous pulse infusions four weeks apart, six infusions in total. The purpose of the present study is to treat ME/CFS patients with cyclophosphamide as intravenous pulse infusions four weeks apart, six infusions in total. The effects on ME/CFS symptoms and tolerability/side effects during 12 months follow-up will be registered, and additional tests will be performed to objectively register changes in physical ability during follow-up. Studies to investigate possible large vessel endothelial dysfunction and skin microvascular dysfunction will be performed before start of intervention and during follow-up.
This proposal aims to expand non-pharmacologic options for the control of symptoms during chemotherapy using yoga practices. It is particularly focused on sleep disturbance with a secondary focus on fatigue.
The aim of NASTRU was to examine whether ten weeks of nature-based rehabilitation, as add-on to standard management, could influence post-stroke fatigue (primary outcome), depression, work ability or functional outcome (secondary outcomes), compared to controls.
This multicenter randomized (1:1) phase 2 study is designed to assess the efficacy of the Walk with Ease exercise program on improving fatigue after adjuvant radiotherapy compared to usual care in 50 women with stage 0-3 breast cancer who have undergone breast surgery. Prior to initiation of radiation, during the last week, and 4-6 weeks post radiation, women in both arms will complete a number of surveys including questionnaires on fatigue, pain, depression, sleep, and social support. In addition, a blood sample will be collected prior to, during the last week of radiation, and 4-6 weeks post radiation to explore measures of inflammatory biomarkers, and their potential association with exercise and fatigue.
Fatigue is one of the most consistent and distressing symptoms reported by pediatric oncology patients. The investigators' work has demonstrated that in the period from diagnosis through the initial 8 weeks of treatment, adolescents and young adults with solid tumors experience substantial fatigue that is not related to sleep disruption. Fatigue can contribute to many adverse outcomes including poor treatment adherence, reduced social activities, depressive symptoms, behavior problems, and poorer quality of life. Unfortunately, no definitive intervention to reduce fatigue has been developed for pediatric oncology patients. Investigators propose a study to estimate the feasibility and acceptability of bright light therapy as an intervention to decrease fatigue in adolescents and young adults who are newly diagnosed and receiving treatment for solid tumors, including lymphoma.
Sunitinib is a chemotherapy approved by the FDA as a standard of care treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Fatigue is a very common side effect of sunitinib that frequently causes dose reductions. The cause of this fatigue remains unclear. This study will use a special type of scan to study sunitinib-induced fatigue in relation to exercise.
After a brain injury (BI) , patients complain in particular about sequel fatigue. This symptom affects about 50 % of the patients; it is severe, with a repercussion on quality of life, reeducation and occupational reintegration, and persists often at a distance of the accident. The investigators' hypothesis is that patients who presented a severe BI could benefit from a treatment by withe blue enriched bright light in order to improve fatigue and quality of life.
This pilot study will evaluate for the presence of neuromuscular junction (NMJ) defect in women with motor fatigue in multiple sclerosis by Single Fiber Electromyography (SFEMG) using the concentric needle electrode.
