Filter by:Restless Leg Syndrome, a progressive and recurrent chronic sensorimotor disorder that creates an irresistible urge to move the legs and a feeling of discomfort, is seen in 15.4-26.0% of pregnant women in our country. Restless Leg Syndrome has negative effects on sleep, mood, cognitive health, daily activities and behavior in pregnant women; It can also cause preeclampsia, difficult labor, and cesarean delivery. Therefore, it is important for pregnant women with Restless Leg Syndrome to be treated appropriately. It is recommended that pregnant women use non-pharmacological treatments as they are not risky for fetal health. Kinesio taping and manual lymphatic drainage methods are used non-pharmacologically to support venous-lymphatic drainage and manage pain. These methods are economical, reliable and easy to apply. However, no study has been found in which Kinesio taping or manual lymphatic drainage was applied to a patient group with Restless Leg Syndrome during or outside pregnancy. The aim of this project is to determine the effect of Kinesio taping and manual lymphatic drainage on Restless Legs Syndrome severity, sleep quality and psychological well-being in pregnant women with Restless Legs Syndrome.

Moral Injury Syndrome (MIS) affects up to 35-60% of Veterans managing combat-related PTSD; it results from experiences that challenge deeply held values or spiritual beliefs. Symptoms of MIS may include hopelessness, helplessness, loss of spiritual beliefs, difficulty with forgiveness, loss of meaning or purpose, reduced trust in self or others, or intractable guilt, shame or anger. Veterans managing MIS have difficulty responding to mental health treatment, and are at increased risk for suicide ideation or attempts. To date evidence-based interventions for MIS are not widely available in VA. This study will implement an evidence-based intervention for MIS in four VA facilities, collect data on the effectiveness of the intervention, and develop an implementation toolkit. This data will inform national dissemination in collaboration with the Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention and the National Chaplain Service.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of applying Transcranial direct current stimulation on pain levels and function, quality of life, muscle strength and range of motion in individuals with subacromial pain syndrome.
This study is a 4-year natural history study for patients with Angelman syndrome in Belgium (a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder, affecting 500,000 individuals in the world). It includes a 1-year recruitment phase, a 2-year follow-up and a year to analyze the collected data. The investigators plan to include 10 patients with a semi-annual follow-up for 2 years. The investigators will collect relevant retrospective and prospective data using age-standardized scales and questionnaires for functional motor assessments and global developmental assessment.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), also known as median mononeuropathy, occurs when the median nerve is squeezed or compressed as it travels through the carpal tunnel at the wrist. It is common in the age group of 40-60 years. The main aim of the study was to compare the effectiveness of carpal ligament self-myofascial stretching over conventional physical therapy on reducing pain and improving function in patients with stage I and II CTS-thirty-six subjects with stage I and II (mild) CTS were recruited. Thirty-six subjects who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to the experimental group and control group, with 18 patients in each group. The experimental group received carpal ligament self-myofascial stretching along with conventional physical therapy, while the control group received traditional physical therapy alone. The duration of the treatment was six weeks. The outcome measures used were the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire and the Visual Analogue Scale.
This observational multicenter study aims to evaluate the reliability and validity of the e-tool for selecting patients eligible for SCS for chronic pain caused by one of the four etiologies listed above in the experience of daily clinical practice. The implantation procedure and devices used will be those used in the routine clinical practice of participating centers. Since the study is observational, the use of the e-tool will not replace the routine medical and psychological evaluation in participating centers before SCS implantation. Study Objectives: Primary Objective: Evaluate the degree of agreement/disagreement between the physicians opinion and the e-tool in selecting patients eligible for spinal cord stimulation for chronic pain. Endpoint: Calculation of the probability of disagreement (πD) between the e-tool and the physicians opinion regarding the appropriateness of the intervention. Secondary Objective: Evaluate the ability of the e-tool to classify interventions defined as appropriate and highly likely to succeed; (scores 7-9) at 3 different time points: trial, 6-month follow-up, and 12-month follow-up. The proportion of interventions that were successful at the trial implantation in different time points will be compared with the proportion of interventions identified as appropriate and highly likely to succeed by the e-tool. Study Period: 24 months. 12 months of enrollment + 12 months of follow-up. Subjects: Number of subjects to be included: at least 60 (total divided between the two centers) Participating Centers: - Pain Therapy Unit - ICSMaugeri, Pavia - Anesthesia and Pain Therapy SD - Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria Pisana Pisa
Rotator cuff syndrome is one of the most common problems in the shoulder, starting as acute tendinopathy and progressing to partial and full thickness tears. Shoulder pain causes a decrease in shoulder joint movement, joint position sense, upper extremity function and quality of life. Among the most commonly used conservative treatment methods; Joint range of motion exercises, stretching exercises, strengthening exercises, mobilization and electrotherapy method are included. Nowadays, with the widespread use of technology in rehabilitation, video-based games have begun to be used for rehabilitative purposes in addition to conservative approaches. Although the effectiveness of video-based games has been extensively studied in diseases such as cerebral palsy, stroke and parkinsonism, there are a limited number of studies in the field of orthopedic rehabilitation, especially in shoulder rehabilitation. Basic body awareness therapy is used to treat chronic musculoskeletal-related painful conditions. In the literature, basic body awareness therapy has been studied in patient groups such as mental health, stroke patient groups, chronic musculoskeletal problems, chronic waist and neck pain, scoliosis and knee osteoarthritis. Studies have shown that the TBFT method provides improvements in individuals' body awareness, mobility in daily living activities, health-related quality of life, body image and pain intensity. However, no studies have been found in which basic body awareness therapy was used in the field of shoulder rehabilitation. Our study aims to compare the effectiveness of a rehabilitative game exercise program and body awareness training in terms of pain, joint range of motion, shoulder functionality, proprioception, body awareness, shoulder-related quality of life, kinesiophobia and patient satisfaction in individuals with Rotator cuff syndrome.
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to compare a tuberositas transposition (TTT) surgery with a home exercise program (HEP) in patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). The study aims to evaluate the efficiency of TTT in conjunction with a HEP compared to a HEP alone in patients with chronic PFPS. Participants will randomly be allocated to the surgery or HEP group. Researchers will compare the surgery and HEP groups to see if activity-related pain and patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) are different.
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a mutation on the X chromosome. Scientists have investigated FXS extensively in both humans and animals. Thus far, phenotypic rescue in animal models has not resulted in treatment breakthroughs in humans, though some important discoveries have been made. Research has shown that individuals with FXS process sounds differently than those in the typical population, and they also show baseline differences in brain activity, including high gamma activity, increased theta activity, and decreased alpha activity. The investigators' central hypothesis is that these alterations in brain activity (specifically alpha and gamma activity) impair the brain's ability to process new information, thereby impeding cognitive functioning and increasing sensory sensitivity. The investigators propose that auditory entrainment, a technique that involves playing special sounds through headphones, will normalize brain activity in individuals with FXS and lead to increased cognitive function and decreased sensory hypersensitivity.
