Filter by:Myofascial Pain Syndrome (MPS) is a disorder of the musculoskeletal system manifested by referred pain associated with functional limitation, muscle contractures, and possible neuralgic manifestations; this condition is characterized by the presence of "trigger points". The goal of this case-control study was to compare the effects and benefits of treatment with ESWT vs Mesotherapy in myofascial pain syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is: what is the best rehabilitation project-program between ESWT and mesotherapy for patients with myofascial syndrome? A case-control study was conducted at the U.O.C. of "Recovery and Functional Rehabilitation" A.O.U.P. "P. Giaccone" of Palermo from February 2022 to Dicember2023. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: in group "A", No. 5 sessions of focal ESWT were given weekly; in group "B", No. 5 sessions of Mesotherapy with administration of Thiocolchicoside fl 4mg/2ml and Mepivacaine fl 10mg/1ml were given weekly. Patients in group "A" and group "B" were evaluated at baseline (T0), after 5 sessions (T1) and one month after the end of treatment (T2). Researchers will compare patients treated with ESWT and patients performing mesotherapy to see if there are real differences in terms of pain reduction and improved quality of life.
To observe the improvement of Chalder scale score in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome treated by compound Ciwujia granules. Improvement =[(baseline score - post-treatment score)/baseline score]*100%
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of dazodalibep on patient-reported symptoms of SS in participants with moderate-to-severe symptom state Secondary Objectives: 1. To evaluate the effect of dazodalibep on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in participants with SS. 2. To evaluate the effect of dazodalibep on measures of systemic activity, PROs, and salivary flow in participants with SS 3. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of dazodalibep in participants with SS
Hemophagocytic syndrome (HS) is a rare condition that can be responsible for severe organ failure. Therapeutic guidelines are mainly based on observational studies and expert opinions: no therapeutic advance has been developed for years, explaining why mortality in HS remains high (Intensive Care Unit mortality ranging from 40 to 70%). If etoposide remains the gold standard in critically ill HS patients, nearly 20% of patients are refractory to this therapy: treatment escalation is common, most often requiring the administration of intensive treatments generating high toxicity. Ruxolitinib is the first approved JAK inhibitor. It has been associated with improvement of HS manifestations and survival in a pre-clinical murine model. Data in humans are scarce but promising. The aim is to demonstrate that ruxolitinib, in association with standard of care, may reverse organ failure (as represented by Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score) better than standard of care alone in critically ill patients with acquired HS.
The aim of our study is to assess clinical & laboratory parameters of adult Egyptian myelodysplastic syndrome patients in upper Egypt, its correlation with disease-free survival, overall survival (OS) and acute leukemia transformation.
Children with Down Syndrome frequently encounter difficulties with sensory functions and feeding, such as oral sensory processing issues and developmental disorders. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of an Occupational Therapy Home Program on the sensory functions and feeding issues of children with Down Syndrome.
The aim of this study is to compare ultrasound-guided perineural injection of the median nerve with classic minimal incision surgical technique for median nerve decompression in patients diagnosed with mild, moderate, and severe carpal tunnel syndrome.
The purpose of this prospective pilot study is to gather preliminary evidence evaluating spinal cord stimulation (SCS) as a potential therapy for the treatment of rigidity and painful spasms in patients with stiff person syndrome (SPS), a rare autoimmune neurological condition. The hypothesis is that SCS-mediated clinical improvement occurs through multi-modal mechanisms of action targeting several components of neuronal inhibitory signaling pathways in the spinal cord.
Our study is a case report of one of the rarest risk factor, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, of small bowel malignancy detected in a patient with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma of small bowel(jejunum)
Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS) is characterized by lateral hip pain, pain radiating to the lateral leg, tenderness and rotation around the greater trochanter, and pain with specific activities such as abduction or adduction. GTPS is primarily diagnosed clinically. Conservative treatment for GTPS includes activity modification, physiotherapy, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, local corticosteroids, and platelet-rich plasma injections. Particularly, regional muscle sensitivity, such as in the gluteus maximus, is prominent. In recent years, dry needling therapy, which has gained popularity and increased research attention, has become an alternative treatment option, especially if the underlying cause is myofascial pain syndrome or deeper issues like piriformis syndrome. The provided text discusses dry needling as a treatment for various neuromusculoskeletal pain conditions, emphasizing its use as a minimally invasive procedure that involves applying filiform needles to the relevant muscle tissue without the administration of pharmacological drugs. The literature suggests that dry needling therapy has the ability to induce biochemical, biomechanical, endocrinological, and neurovascular changes associated with the reduction of pain and disability in individuals. However, the optimal treatment dosage has not yet been determined, and there is inconsistency in the literature regarding the number of needles to be inserted and the duration of needle retention. Studies evaluating the effectiveness of dry needling are often designed to compare or add it to other injection therapies. Additionally, there is a limited number of studies conducted with real-time imaging. In the planned study, the use of ultrasound-guided dry needling aims to provide a sham application opportunity, where the patient is blinded to the nature of the procedure, allowing for a meaningful investigation of efficacy. This aspect of the study is expected to contribute significantly to the literature.
