Cannabidiol for Reduction of Brain Neuroinflammation

Back PainDepressive Symptoms

This study will investigate whether cannabidiol (CBD), the primary centrally and peripherally active non-intoxicating compound in the cannabis plant, exerts anti-neuroinflammatory effects in patients with chronic low back pain (cLBP) with or without mild-to-moderate depression.

Pain Modulation - Experimental Assessments Using Different Modalities

Low Back PainCompare Pain Modulation Assessments in Pain-free Cohorts

The goal of this study is to investigate how different painful stimuli are processed and modulated in the nervous system. In various pain conditions, including low back pain, often no specific source can be identified as the cause of the pain. Scientific findings point towards a possible involvement of sensitization processes in the central nervous system (spinal cord and brain) that can contribute to the development and persistence of chronic pain. There is a need for reliable and well established experimental methods to better investigate and understand these processes. Frequently used methods comprise the application of thermal, mechanical or electrical stimulations. These modalities are processed in different parts of the nervous system, each allowing its own conclusions. This can be an advantage, but it also poses a challenge regarding comparability and generalizability of obtained results. This study aims to apply and compare various experimental methods in people without and people with low back pain and shed light on the methodological differences. In the future, this could enable better identification and characterization of sensitization processes in the nervous system and build the basis for individually adapted, mechanism-targeted treatments with better patient outcomes.

Changes in Affective Pain Processing in Human Volunteers

PainAcute3 more

The experience of pain is more than the conscious perception of nociceptive signals. Emotional and motivational aspects accompany pain, leading to its aversiveness and motivation for avoidance. In chronic pain, a negative hedonic shift has been proposed that is characterized by disproportionally increased emotional-motivational compared to sensory-discriminative pain responses. Such a negative hedonic shift is, for example, mirrored in very high comorbidity rates of chronic pain and affective disorders such as depression and anxiety. The aim of this study is to develop methods that allow the differentiation of sensory-discriminative and emotional-motivational pain response and to characterize mechanisms of the negative hedonic shift.

Influence of Manual Relaxation of the Diaphragm on the Tension of the Posterior Superficial Fascia...

Diaphragm; RelaxationLow Back Pain

The diaphragm performs many functions that are vital to the body as a whole. Some of them are not related only to ventilation. The diaphragm is part of the myofascial system in the human body. Therefore, the proper functioning of the diaphragm should be a significant element of physiotherapy, e.g. in patients reporting pain in the lumbosacral spine. Considering the complex role of the diaphragm, it seems reasonable to investigate the influence of the mobilization of the diaphragm (aimed at reducing diaphragm tension) on the tension of the extensor muscles of the lumbar spine. The assumption of this reserach is to investigate the correlation between the tension of the fascia in the area of the diaphragm to the tension of the muscles in the area of the lumbar spine. The fascial connections between the diaphragm and the muscles in the lumbar spine presented above suggest that the manual therapy performed within the diaphragm can effectively prevent the occurrence of pain, and might be a supportive measure in the treatment of pain in the spine. The aim of the study is to investigate the corellation between the tension of the fascia within the diaphragm and the tension of the posterior superficial tape. Research questions: How does manual therapy in the area of the tendon attachments of the diaphragm affect the relaxation of the extensor muscles of the lumbar spine? How can the therapy conducted only within the diaphragm, without interfering with the structures surrounding the spine, reduce the tension of the extensor muscles of the lumbar spine and, consequently, increase the range of its mobility in all planes? How will the introduced therapy change the tidal volume of the lungs?

Using Non-Weightbearing Stationary Elliptical Machines for Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain

Chronic Low-back PainLow Back Pain

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of non-weightbearing stationary ellipticals (Cubii, Fitness Cubed, Inc.) on patient well-being with chronic lower back pain (CLBP). The main questions it aims to answer are: Assess the effect of non-weightbearing stationary ellipticals on clinical outcomes inclduing vital signs, pain, disability, analgesic use, mental health, abdominal muscle strength, and compliance in patients with CLBP. Assess the effect of placing the patients into an interactive virtual environment during the exercise sessions on the outcomes of the program Participants will participate in 60 minute training sessions to see if there are effects to their CLBP.

Non-Pharmacological Method to Relieve Back Pain

Pain

The study will be carried out in a randomized controlled manner in order to examine the effectiveness of acupressure applied in the late postpartum period in postpartum women who have had back pain and have had a cesarean delivery. The sample of the study will consist of 70 participants who applied to the family health center between 05.06.2023 and 05.12.2024, who had cesarean birth registered in the central family health center in Kocaeli province Kandıra district, who met the research criteria and agreed to participate in the research. Data in the research; It will be collected using the 'Participant Information Form', 'VAS (Visual Analog Scale for Evaluating Back Pain)', 'McGill Pain Questionnaire (Short Form)'. Participants in the acupressure group will be given 2 times acupressure application in the 1st week and 4th week postpartum. No application will be made to the participants in the control group. The research is planned to be carried out after obtaining the necessary institutional and ethical committee permissions.
