Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare the effects of localized vibration and dry needling applied to the trigger point in the individuals with acute myofascial pain syndrome.Pressure pain threshold (PPT) was used for the primary outcome measure of the study, and pain intensity, pain tolerance and short form (SF-36) were used for secondary outcome measures.
the study based on investigate for fibromyalgia among rheumatiod arthritis patient and psoriatic arthritis.....and to what extent gibromyalgia affect disease activity indices ....and its relation to serum Vitamin D level in those patients
Learning impairments (such as reduced selective learning or excessive generalization) in the context of pain can lead to disability. Learning deficits have been found in experimental studies in various pain populations. In current scientific discussions, the activation of resilience factors (in particular positive affect and optimism) is being considered to optimize learning experiences and to make therapeutic procedures more effective. Positive affect could promote selective learning since positive emotions broaden attention and focus and thus possibly improve inhibitory learning. There is first scientific evidence for improved safety learning through positive affect in non-clinical samples in the context of pain. In this research project, the influence of positive affect and optimism on selective learning will be investigated in a clinical sample of fibromyalgia patients. Data will be collected online and standardized questionnaires will be used. The authors expect that (1) There will be a larger increase in positive affect and positive future expectations in the Best Possible Self condition than in the Typical Day condition. (2) Patients in the Best Possible Self condition will show elevated positive affect and positive future expectations after the intervention compared to patients in the Typical Day condition. (3) And crucially, patients in the Best Possible Self condition will show better selective learning than patients in the Typical Day group. Thus the investigators hypothesize that the blocking effect will be higher for patients with higher degrees of positive affect and optimism.
Ozone (O2-O3) has been used as a supportive therapy in various musculoskeletal diseases such as lumbosacral disc herniation, knee osteoarthritis, meniscus injury, shoulder pathologies.The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of ozone (O2-O3) injection applied to the trigger point in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome.
One Hundred Fifty woman patients diagnosed with fibromyalgia according to the American College of Rheumatology 2010 diagnostic criteria and 150 healthy woman volunteers will be included.Demographic data (age, gender, height, weight, marital status, education level) and duration of fibromyalgia diagnosis will be recorded. Patients will be evaluated according to the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders: Assessment Instruments (DCTMD: AI ). Patients will be evaluated by Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders: Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) Pain Screener, Symptom questionnaire, Clinical Examination Form from Assessment Instruments Axis I. Pain Drawing, Graded Chronic Pain (version 2), Jaw Functional Limitation Scale-8 (JFLS-8), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-4), Oral Behaviors Checklist will be applied within the scope of Axis II.
Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a widely used technique for lymphedema. However, the analgesic effects of this technique could be potentially useful for managing pain in patients with generalized widespread chronic pain, including patients with fibromyalgia.
Trigger points (TrPs) are a common musculoskeletal cause of local and referred muscle pain, as well as local inflammation in the muscle and fascia. From a clinical and sensory viewpoint, TrPs may be classified as active or latent. The principal difference is the reproduction of symptoms experienced by an individual (active) with or without stimulation. Local and referred pain elicited from latent TrPs may be transient in duration upon stimulation, and latent TrPs may be present without spontaneous symptoms. Both active and latent TrPs induce motor dysfunctions such as stiffness, restricted range of motion, and accelerated fatigability in the affected muscle. The interrater reliability of manual identification of latent TrPs in the calf muscles has been found to range from small to moderate. The clinical relevance of latent TrPs has increased in the last decade,4 and some studies have investigated the effects of treating them. Among all manual therapies targeted to latent TrPs, ischemic compression, or TrP pressure release, is the most commonly used. Although TrPs may affect any muscle, the gastrocnemius muscle may be the most susceptible in the lower extremity to developing them. It has been reported that 13% to 30% of the asymptomatic population has latent TrPs in these muscles, and their presence may affect sport practice. The purpose of this study will be to evaluate changes in neuromuscular function, pain perception, and basic physical properties in myofascial trigger points (TrPs) after a single treatment session of dry needling in the gastrocnemius muscle. A randomized within-participant clinical trial with a blinded assessor will be conducted. 50 asymptomatic volunteers (100 gastrocnemius-muscle) with MrPs gastrocnemius-muscle TrPs will bilaterally explored. Each extremity will be randomly assigned to the control group (no treatment) or the experimental group (60 seconds of dry needling over each TrP). Neuromuscular function of the gastrocnemius muscle will be assessed using a MyotonPro and a tensiomyography. Muscle flexibility will be analyzed using the lunge test and the passive ankle range of motion. The strength will be determined with a handheld dynamometer (MicroFET2). Pain perception will be analyzed with a 0-to-10 numerical pain rating scale and determination of pressure pain thresholds over each latent TrP.
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS); It is a chronic condition characterized by widespread body pain, sleep disturbance, fatigue, impaired cognitive functions, and anxiety (1). FMS; chronic fatigue syndrome, interstitial cystitis, irritable bowel syndrome, temperomandibular joint dysfunction, myofascial pain, functional dyspepsia, restless leg syndrome and posttraumatic stress disorder are among central sensitization syndromes (2,3).
The main objective is to know if the transcranial static magnetic field stimulation (tSMS) reduces the perception of pain in patients with fibromyalgia and its effect on health-related quality of life. In addition, it will seek to limit the parameters necessary to achieve efficiency with the technique.
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a chronic rheumatic disease characterized by a wide range of symptoms such as widespread muscle pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, anxiety-depression, impaired balance, falling risk, poor physical condition, cognitive dysfunction, and irritable bowel syndrome. The aim of the study; It is a comparison of the effectiveness of aerobic exercises and postural stabilization exercises that are structured to reduce the pain severity, fatigue, sleep problems and anxiety-depression levels of patients who are being followed up with a diagnosis of FMS, and to increase the duration of physical activity and quality of life.
