Filter by:To further characterize Long COVID-19 by collecting data from individuals who already own wearable devices or are provided with a wearable device along with basic and enhanced educational materials to determine if both can improve Long COVID-19 symptom management and post-exertional malaise.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of oral melatonin and zinc supplementation on core features in individuals with ME/CFS
Chronic fatigue syndrome/Myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) can be a serious and disabling condition with a heavy symptom burden and low function. Work disability is common, and social life dramatically affected. CFS/ME is a challenging health problem as well as a societal problem. In recent years, a doubling of the number of patients with a CFS/ME diagnoses has been reported in Norway. The patient group represents a challenge for the health care system, the municipality, and the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Organization (NAV). According to new figures, the NAV pays 100 million Norwegian Kroner (NOK) each month in permanently incapacitated expenses for people with CFS/ME. Municipalities have expenses in form of care, rehabilitation and other measures. There is a lack of effective treatment for CFS/ME. Evidence-based knowledge is highly needed. If the 3-day course shows promising effects, this could have positive consequences for patients, relatives and health personnel, but also financially for the society and the municipality.
The term recovery from COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 is unverified because the infection leaves many symptoms due to permanent effects on multiple organs; The primary objective of this research is to understand acute and chronic long COVID symptoms by asking questions detecting patient's experience especially symptoms lasting for several months which is known as chronic fatigue syndrome(Myalgic encephalitis). The study focuses on symptoms describing Myalgic encephalitis which may still affect COVID patients for several months after the infection along with making a big picture about rare symptoms that may the patient experienced during or after the infection. A secondary objective of this research is to focus on the long-term sequelae effects and comorbidities following COVID-19 vaccination.
The purpose of this study is to examine cardiopulmonary function in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) patients and determine how it relates to the common symptom of Post-exertional malaise (PEM). Subjects will complete a maximal exercise test on 2 subsequent days. Total blood volume will be measured prior to each exercise test, and patient with hypovolemia on day 1, will be randomized to either a saline or sham infusion prior to the 2nd exercise test. A total of 80 CFS patients will be enrolled.
Chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS) is an unexplained multisymptom/multisystem disorder for which there are currently no validated treatments. The present exploratory clinical trial aims to advance our understand of the mechanisms of in situ GSH synthesis control through assessment of the response of brain GSH and plasma markers of oxidative stress to different doses of NAC in comparison to placebo, as a potential treatment for ME/CFS that would provide neuroprotection against oxidative stress by restoring cortical GSH reserves. If successful, this exploratory clinical trial would address a significant public health concern by shedding new light onto the mechanisms of action of NAC in brain GSH restoration, which could open a new avenue for the development of potentially effective treatments for a disorder, ME/CFS, that currently has none.
This study seeks to correlate microbiome sequencing data with information provided by patients and their medical records regarding Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS).
Placebo controlled trial study of efficacy of Kinetic Oscillation Stimulation (KOS) in nasal cavity will be conducted in patients with myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). The outcome of the treatment will be assessed with clinical evaluation of patients, cognitive tests, structural and functional MRI of the brain.
