Filter by:The aim of this project is to investigate the effects of riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, on preventing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in ultramarathon athletes through a randomized placebo-controlled study.
This study aims to verify the efficacy / effectiveness of treatment with transcranial direct therapy (TDCS) in patients with Persistent Covid who present headaches, migraines and chronic pain, such as arthralgias and myalgias. Transcranial Direct Therapy is used in the field of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, with results that prove to be effective for the treatment of patients suffering from symptoms such as migraines, headaches, chronic pain, fibromyalgia or chronic neuropathic pain. As can be seen, in the case of patients with Persistent Covid we find several of these symptoms, so it is suggested that, if Transcranial Direct Current Therapy (TDCs) is giving such good results, relieving these symptoms, why can not give such good results and help so much in patients with Persistent Covid, If many of the symptoms are the same, even if the origin or cause is different.
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).
The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization therapy on delayed onset muscle soreness
Rape is a common cause of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women, as around 30-50% will develop PTSD in the aftermath of rape. A modified protocol based on Prolonged Exposure Therapy (mPE), has been developed, consisting of three to five once or twice weekly 60 minutes sessions, and studies indicate that if implemented early after rape, mPE may prevent the development of PTSD. The aim of the study is to conduct a multi-site (4 Sexual assault care centers in Norway) randomized control trial (RCT) in which patients are recruited early after rape, and randomized to intervention (mPE) or treatment as usual (TAU).
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of oral melatonin and zinc supplementation on core features in individuals with ME/CFS
Fibromyalgia is one of the most prevalent chronic widespread pain entities today. One of the most common problems in patients with fibromyalgia are alterations of the temporomandibular region, present in approximately 80% of the subjects, being, in turn, alterations of muscular origin the most common with a prevalence of 84%. One of the most promising therapeutic strategies is one that leads to self-management by the patient. The main objective of this study is to analyze the effect of a self-management program for myalgia in the temporomandibular region in subjects with fibromyalgia. For this, an experimental study of the uncontrolled Clinical Trial type will be carried out. Participants must be over 18 years of age, have a diagnosis of fibromyalgia and have myalgia or myofascial pain syndrome in the temporomandibular region. Demographic data, maximum oral opening and mandibular function, pressure pain threshold and pain level, quality of life related to oral health, kinesiophobia, anxiety and depression, sleep, patient expectations, patient satisfaction with the treatment received, patient habits, catastrophizing, knowledge about pain, central sensitization, self-efficacy, and coping with pain. An initial data collection will be carried out. The intervention will be carried out in 3 sessions in which different pain processes will be explained, mandibular mobility exercises, masticatory muscle self-massage, as well as recommendations and advice on its pathology. Data will be collected again 4 weeks after the end of the program and at months 6 and 12. The appearance of adverse effects linked to the therapeutic program is not contemplated.
Metabolic myopathies form a group of pathologies related to a deficit of muscle energy production (enzymatic deficit) by disorder of the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, purines, or mitochondrial involvement related to dysfunction of complex respiratory chain. Most often, the symptomatology may include signs of "muscular" calling with cramps, contractures or exercise myalgia, more or less associated with exercise intolerance with early fatigability and rhabdomyolysis. In practice, the clinical signs are not specific and not pathognomonic, or sometimes absent with only an isolated elevation of the CPK. The diagnosis of certainty is usually based on the realization of a muscle biopsy (invasive). Unfortunately, the performance of the biopsy (definitive diagnosis of myopathy) in front of myalgia is low, hence the interest of functional explorations upstream to better specify its indication. Given the considerable increase in muscle metabolism to physical effort, resting investigations may not uncover myo-metabolic deficit. The muscle enzymatic deficit, is therefore most often "silent" at rest and its highlighting requires to explore the patient with effort, asking him to perform an exercise test on cycloergometer and/or an isometric contraction of the forearm ('handgrip test'). Currently, only a few metabolites are dosed before and after exertion such as lactate, pyruvic acid and ammonium. Several studies in normal subjects showed the effect of physical exercise on the metabolomic signature of plasma. Our aim is to apply modern metabolomic techniques to plasma and urinary samples collected as part of the care pathway in patients referred to in the Department of Sports Medicine-Functional Explorations of the CHU in comparison with healthy volunteers).
In the Emergency Department, there is no standard of care for pain medication distribution for children with an acute musculoskeletal injury when there is no fracture present. Currently, ibuprofen is a favorable choice for the treatment, but studies have shown concern for delayed healing activity associated with NSAIDs like Ibuprofen. Homeopathic Arnica Montana is a well-established complimentary medicine and may provide a good alternative for managing acute pain from musculoskeletal injuries, especially in children, given the palatability and rarity of side effects. This study aims to compare usual care vs. usual care plus Arnica 1M* (oral) or the placebo for management of pain in acute musculoskeletal extremity injuries without fracture by utilizing a double-blind clinical trial design. The primary outcome is to determine if subjects use less ibuprofen when given Arnica 1M.
The purpose of this study is to investigate muscle stiffness in relation to delayed on-set muscle soreness following exercise and to investigate how well the change in muscle stiffness correlates with the subjective experienced degree of stiffness.
