Active clinical trials for "Fatigue"

Physiological changes caused by hematological diseases associated with high dose chemotherapy have a negative impact on patient's functionality, making them more fragile and vulnerable after hematopoietic cell transplantation. Currently, randomized studies have shown that physical exercise can contribute to improve Quality of Life of these patients. In this randomized controlled trial, we will study the effect of using the bicycle ergometer on the physical performance of patients undergoing transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCT).

The investigators aim to test whether beta-endorphin, a substance our bodies make in response to painful and stressful stimuli, plays a causative role in radiation-induced fatigue that cancer patients receiving radiation therapy commonly experience. If this is so, the investigators' hope is to direct efforts at treating radiation-induced fatigue using agents that block the action of beta-endorphin with the aim of improving quality of life for patients undergoing radiation therapy

Thus, the aim of the current study is to assess the influence of vitamin D deficiency and, consequently, of serum calcium deficiency in the body composition, muscular activity, bone mineral density, fatigue, and exercise tolerance of CD patients. Secondly, it also aims to determine the impact of vitamin D supplementation on this population.

The high levels of fatigue in stroke patients without neurological impairment suggest it has a central origin rather than being the result of increased physical effort required after stroke（Winward et al., 2009）.
