Filter by:The main aim of the presented project will be to examine the concentration of selected receptors (CB1, CB2, TRPV-1) showing affinity for binding to cannabidol (CBD) and cannabinol (CBN) in blood samples collected from people with chronic pain in the masticatory muscles and from people without this pain. Moreover, study participants will be examined by a qualified doctor, according to the validated and standardized international DC/TMD protocol (Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders) and the criteria included in ICOP-1 (International Classification of Orofacial Pain, 1st edition). The nature and duration of pain, psychoemotional state and central sensitization (the phenomenon of increased reactivity of the nervous system to stimuli) will be determined using validated questionnaires. The obtained results will be subjected to statistical analysis in order to check the relationships between the examined parameters.
The purpose of the study is to provide adequate information about the percentage of the main tissue that causing pain in most common spinal disorders either it is muscular, nerve or joint in each spinal parts, that will provide the physical therapist with large data that can be helpful in differential diagnosis.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether there is a difference in areas such as occupational musculoskeletal injuries and strategies developed by physiotherapists working in different fields, burnout and occupational satisfaction.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an aqueous solution containing CBD and CBN in the management of Facial Pain and Headache of Muscular Origin. A randomized (block randomization), double-blind, two-arm controlled trial will involve 42 adult patients diagnosed with Facial Pain and Headache of Muscular Origin which is lasting more than 3 months on the basis of clinical examination. Qualified study participants will be randomly assigned to two groups. The studied group will receive tan aqueous solution containing CBD and CBN, to drink at home in the dose determined by the attending physician, while the control group will receive an aqueous solution of placebo, to drink at home in the dose determined by the attending physician during this time. Each subject will be tested on the qualification day (D0), on 20 days after D0 (D20), and then 40 (D40) and 60 (D60) days after the qualification day using electromyography (EMG), pressure pain threshold test (PPT), clinical examination and surveys.
An assessment of the effectiveness of Stellate Ganglion Block in alleviating symptoms of Long COVID-19.
Case series, repeated-measures design, pilot study. Adult, female, migraine patients underwent seven Ischemic Compression Myofascial Trigger Points (IC-MTrPs) therapy sessions. The aim of the study is to investigate whether therapy of the shoulder girdle and neck muscles by deactivating MTrPs causes modification of biomechanical and biochemical variables in the blood and reduces headache in people with migraine, improving their quality of life by improving their health. People qualified for the study were divided into 3 groups according to the type of migraine: 1. CM group - patients with chronic migraine 2. EMa group - patients with paroxysmal migraine with aura 3. EMb group - patients with paroxysmal migraine without an aura. All patients underwent 7 interventions in the area of the muscles of the shoulder girdle and neck (by deactivating trigger points) performed every 2 or 3 days. They did not take any headache medications during the treatment period. However, during a migraine attack, they could undergo treatments and research measurements. Biomechanical measurements of the cervical spine, shoulder girdle muscles and blood chemistry were performed before, during and after the patients' therapy. All treatments were performed on the following muscles: - m. trapesius pars descendent (trapezius upper), - m. sternocleidomastoideus (sternocleidomastoid), - m. temporalis (temporal), - m. legator scapulae (levator scapula), - m. supraspinatus (supraspinatus), - m. suboccipitales (suboccipital).
Rationale: Combining statin treatment and physical activity is very effective for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Statins are well-tolerated by most patients, but may cause statin-associated muscle symptoms (SAMS). Objective: To identify predictors for SAMS in statin users and to objectively assess physical activity levels and sedentary time between symptomatic and asymptomatic statin users.
The effectiveness of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to reduce pain scores for patients with acute back pain in an ambulatory emergency department (ED) population will be examined in this dual-center, cluster randomized, controlled, open-label study.
The randomized controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a Multi-domain Tai Chi Digital Therapy for treating the individuals suffering from the long term COVID-19 syndrome (Long COVID).
This experimental randomized, double-blind, and controlled study included fifteen young, healthy, and pain-free men and 15 age-matched women. It lasted for three visits with at least one-week washout. Pain was experimentally induced, twice at each visit, with intramuscular injections of 0.2 mL hypertonic saline (5%), before and after intake of one of the different chocolate-types; white (30% cocoa-content), milk (34% cocoa-content), dark (70% cocoa-content). Pain duration, pain area, peak pain, and pressure pain threshold were assessed every fifth minute after each injection, between the time-points 5 to 30 min. Prior to inclusion, all participants underwent an examination in a dental chair. This included a clinical examination of the orofacial region according to the Diagnostic Criteria for temporomandibular disorders (DC/TMD) by a blinded examiner. Participants were also examined regarding their psychosocial status prior to inclusion, this included depression, somatization, anxiety, pain catastrophizing and stress.
