Filter by:Ultrasound Guided Versus Non-Guided Prolotherapy for Treatment of Internal Derangement of Temporomandibular joint. Rationale for conducting the research: The most critical cause for guided prolotherapy is to specify the accurate location of glenoid fossa and the disc space while prolotherapy procedure, and to adjust the needle insertion to according to articular eminence, mandibular condyle, and intra-articular space as anatomical variations. The vibration of ultrasound waves generates a heat so there is a thermal effective for prolotherapy effusion in the TMJ space.
The aim of the study is to test the hypothesis that oral taking of baclofen in therapeutic dosage for 60 days is equally effective as injection of botulinum toxin type "A" in the area of trigger points of the pelvic muscles.
This is a parallel-group randomised clinical trial: Primary purpose: To analyse the clinical changes produced by two different physiotherapy treatments (Intratissue Percutaneous Electrolysis and Dry Needling) for myofascial trigger points in the infraspinatus muscle in subjects with non-specific shoulder pain. Hypothesis: A physiotherapy treatment including Intratissue Percutaneous Electrolysis therapy present greater benefits in terms of pain reduction and increased mobility and functionality rather than Dry Needling treatment in subjects with non-specific shoulder pain. The intervention consisted of 3 treatment sessions, different according to the group, once a week. Seven evaluation points were performed, two pre-intervention evaluations one week apart and after the second one the first treatment session was performed. The third and fourth assessments were prior to the second and third treatment sessions, one week apart. The fifth, sixth and seventh assessments were conducted one week, one month and two months after the last treatment session in each group.
The present randomized-controlled pilot trial will test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an 8-week prolonged nightly fasting (PNF) intervention protocol in 20 adults with fibromyalgia. Aim 1: Evaluate feasibility and acceptability of the PNF intervention among participants with fibromyalgia. Aim 2: Evaluate preliminary efficacy of PNF on pain severity and sensitivity, mood, sleep and inflammation.
950 / 5.000 Çeviri sonuçları Celiac disease is an autoimmune proximal small bowel disease that develops as a persistent intolerance to gluten-like gluten in cereals, mainly wheat gluten and other cereal proteins such as barley, rye, and oats in genetically susceptible individuals. Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic musculoskeletal disease characterized by chronic widespread body pain, fatigue, morning stiffness, subjective swelling, sleep disturbance, intestinal problems, multiple somatic and cognitive problems, especially in the back, neck, shoulders and hips. In terms of intestinal symptoms, very similar findings can be observed between celiac disease and fibromyalgia. For this reason, the presence of celiac disease in FMS patients has been investigated in many studies and its frequency has been found to be high. However, the frequency of FMS in patients with celiac disease is not clear, and an overlooked diagnosis of fibromyalgia may leave many symptoms untreated.
This study is a double-blinded randomized controlled trial with two arms, comparing a recorded mindfulness intervention to a control psycho-education audio. It is a monocentric study that will take place in Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV), a primary teaching hospital in Lausanne, Switzerland. Patients will be randomized 1:1 to the brief mindfulness intervention vs neutral audio intervention. The investigators involved in recruitment and testing will be blind to the intervention condition. A collaborator that is not involved in this study will prepare a coded randomized sequence of audio assignments, uploaded in Redcap. The audio will be played on a laptop or mp-player with a noise cancelling headset.
Fibromyalgia is a frequent chronic pain syndrome almost often affecting women and associating diffuse chronic musculoskeletal pain (for more than 3 months), fatigue and sleep disturbances. Other varied functional symptoms are associated with it, in particular cognitive disorders and a feeling of unrested awakening. Technological advances in virtual reality have led to recognition by the medical community as a way to improve pain and quality of life for patients. There is a growing body of evidence supporting the use of virtual reality as an adjunct therapy to reduce acute pain in patients during medical procedures in hospital settings. There may also be a role for virtual reality in patients with chronic pain.
A randomized trial of Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) is applied in fibromyalgia patients as compared with a control intervention consisting of stretching. Sessions of BBAT lasted 90 min each and took place twice a week form 12 weeks. The primary end point is a change in the biomarkers and neurotransmitters and the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire and the secondary end points include Visual Analog Scale, State Trait Anxiety inventory, Beck Depression Inventory. All assessments will be repeated at post treatment, 12 and 24 weeks and 1 year follow-up.
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of duloxetine as monotherapy on biochemical markers and bone mineral density.
Temporomandibular disorders are common in the general population, the myogenic subtype being the most frequent. Central sensitization seems to be present in this pathology, with a decreased pain pressure threshold observed in both local and remote areas. The best evidence-based treatment consists in combining education, manual therapy and therapeutic exercise in both temporomandibular and cervical regions. Aerobic exercise showed to be effective in subjects with chronic pain and central sensitization, by inducing an hypoalgesic effect. However, there isn't investigation about the effects of aerobic exercise in subjects with myogenic temporomandibular disorders and central sensitization. Thus, the aim of the pilot study is to determine if adding aerobic exercise to an effective physical therapy programme is more effective than physical therapy alone to improve pain pressure threshold in subjects with myogenic temporomandibular disorders and suspicion of central sensitization.
