Motor Control in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia

FibromyalgiaChronic Fatigue Syndrome

This project is a comprehensive study, with main focus on motor control, comparing patients with chronic fatigue syndrome / myalgic encephalopathy (CFS/ME) and/or fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Focus of the present project will be on detailed movement analysis in a movement laboratory and involve functional tasks such as walking and standing. Investigations will also comprise muscle activity, reaction time and fine motor control.

Risk of Falls in Patients With Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic illness characterized by persistent widespread muscle pain with generalised hyperalgesia and allodynia. It can be accompanied by other concomitant symptoms: fatigue, sleep disturbances, musculoskeletal disorders, distress and psychological disorders. The prevalence has been reported to be between 2 and 5%. The hypothesis of this study is that women with fibromyalgia present high risk of falls and balance disorders compared with healthy women. The objective of this study was to investigate wether gait pattern changes in single and dual task conditions were associated with the risk of falling in women with fibromyalgia.

Observational Study of Control Participants for the MAPP Research Network

FibromyalgiaIrritable Bowel Syndrome2 more

The Control Study for the Multidisciplinary Approach to the Study of Chronic Pelvic Pain (MAPP) Research Network has been established to focus on a broader approach to the study of Interstitial Cystitis (IC)/Painful Bladder Syndrome (PBS) in men and women, and Chronic Prostatitis (CP)/Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS) in men, than previously undertaken. Participants with no Urologic Pelvic Pain Syndromes as well as participants with specific conditions (Fibromyalgia (FM), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)) are being recruited for the Trans-MAPP Control Study. These participants will act as a reference/control group for the Trans-MAPP Epidemiology & Phenotyping (EP) Study. As with many chronic pain disorders, IC and CP are poorly understood, and treatment is often not helpful. The goal of this study is to better understand how pain is felt in people with IC or CP. The MAPP Control Study is an observational study that will enroll participants from 6 Discovery Sites and 3 Satellite Sites across the U.S. The investigators will ask questions and gather information about the health and life of the participants for research purposes. The investigators hope that this study will lead to improvement in the treatment of IC and CP.

Living With Fibromyalgia: Triggers,Subgroups, and a Cognitive-Behavioral and Interactive Technology-Based...

Fibromyalgia

The purpose of this study is to conduct semi-structured qualitative interviews to examine the personal experiences of women living with fibromyalgia. The specific aims of this study are to identify clinically relevant "triggers" of fibromyalgia symptoms and examine their impact on activity limitations and participation restrictions.

Connective Tissue Manipulation and Combined Ultrasound Therapy in Patients With Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia

The aim of this study was to evaluate the short term and one year follow-up results of connective tissue manipulation and combined ultrasound therapy (ultrasound and high voltage pulsed galvanic stimulation) in terms of pain, complaint of non-restorative sleep and impact on the functional activities in patients with fibromyalgia.

Eligibility Screening for National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research Studies

Fibromyalgia

This screening protocol is designed to evaluate patients for participation in clinical studies in the Gene Therapy and Therapeutics Branch (GTTB) of the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research. To participate, patients must meet the specific requirements of at least one of the available research studies; this protocol serves as a first step for admitting patients to an appropriate program. People with diagnosed or undiagnosed conditions may participate in this screening protocol. They will undergo procedures that may include questionnaires, a physical examination, routine laboratory tests, and diagnostic imaging or radiological studies. Eligibility screening will be limited to three visits within 12 months of entry into the protocol. If an appropriate study is not found by the end of this time, the candidate's participation in the screening program will terminate. No experimental treatments are offered under the screening protocol. Patients who are found eligible for a current GTTB study will be notified of their options and invited to enroll.

Effectiveness of Major Ozone Autohemotherapy in the Treatment of Fibromyalgia Syndrome

Fibromyalgia Syndrome

Patients who were admitted to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PMR) outpatient clinic of our hospital between January 2017 and December 2020 and were treated with Major ozone autohemotherapy with a diagnosis of Fibromyalgia syndrome will include to the study. Visual anolog scale (VAS), Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnare (FIQ) and Short Form Health Survey-36 (SF-36) scores of the patients before and after treatment were recorded. Statistical analysis of these outcome scores will be made.

Effectiveness of Different Methods in Acute Myofascial Pain Syndrome

Myofacial Pain Syndromes

This study is a randomized controlled study. A total of 75 patients between the ages of 20-50 who have a diagnosis of acute myofacial pain syndrome in the trapezius muscle and have pain for a maximum of 5 days were included in the study. Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups. Group 1 patients received kinesio tape method (25 patients), group 2 patients received trigger point injection method (25 patients), and group 3 patients received neural therapy injection method (25 patients). A 10-15 cm sized I band was applied to the trapezius muscles of the first group patients with the patient's neck in lateral flexion. Then, while the patient's neck is flexed, a Y-shaped 15-20 cm tape will be affixed between C1-7 with the arms of the Y up, and I tape of 5-10 cm is attached on the arms. In group 2 patients, 1 cc lidocaine diluted with 4 cc saline (SF) was applied to the trigger points palpated manually in the trapezius muscles. After the trigger point was squeezed between the thumb and index finger, a few cc of local anesthetic mixture was applied into the trigger point with the injector and exited. In the 3rd group patients, a few cc local anesthetic mixture will be applied intradermally over the trigger point without entering into the trigger points palpated manually in the trapezius muscles. Patients were checked 72 hours and 1 week after the first applications. The pain at rest and during movement of the patients in all 3 groups were evaluated with a visual analog scale (VAS 10 cm). The number of trigger points was determined by the physician by hand palpation. Pressure pain threshold was evaluated with the algometer device. Disability assessment of the patients was made using the neck pain disability index. evaluations were made at the beginning of treatment, 72 hours after and 1 week after treatment.

Repetitive Thinking in FibroMyalgia and Attentional Bias

Chronic Pain

Theoretical models of chronic pain hypothesize a privileged treatment of pain-related information that would be the basis of avoidance behaviors in chronic pain. This privileged treatment, also called attentional bias, has been found experimentally in chronic pain. Meta-analyses confirmed that but leaded the question of the difference found between bias in period of attention orientation and bias in period of maintained attention. One of the hypotheses is to consider one or more cognitive processes that would "fix" the attention around significant perceived problems and that would hinder the attentional disengagement and the reorientation of attention towards neutral or positive stimuli. In view of the scientific literature in psychopathology but also in chronic pain we think that the negative repetitive thoughts (RNT) variable is one of these processes. So the investigators want to better understand the difference of attentional bias at different moments of the attentional process by interrogating the Repetitive Thinking variable. More specifically the investigators test the Attentional Bias hypothesis in Fibromyalgia. Patient with Fibromyalgia will be recruited at the Pain Center of CHU-Amiens. Patients will complete different scales and also the visual probe task. First, the investigators hypothesize the attention bias for pain-related information in the FM group is correlated with the level of negative repetitive thinking in the maintained attention phase. Second, the investigators hypothesize the attention bias is more important in the attention maintenance phase (1250 ms) than in the attention orientation phase (500 ms).
