Active clinical trials for "Myalgia"

Chronic fatigue syndrome/Myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) can be a serious and disabling condition with a heavy symptom burden and low function. Work disability is common, and social life dramatically affected. CFS/ME is a challenging health problem as well as a societal problem. In recent years, a doubling of the number of patients with a CFS/ME diagnoses has been reported in Norway. The patient group represents a challenge for the health care system, the municipality, and the Norwegian Labour and Welfare Organization (NAV). According to new figures, the NAV pays 100 million Norwegian Kroner (NOK) each month in permanently incapacitated expenses for people with CFS/ME. Municipalities have expenses in form of care, rehabilitation and other measures. There is a lack of effective treatment for CFS/ME. Evidence-based knowledge is highly needed. If the 3-day course shows promising effects, this could have positive consequences for patients, relatives and health personnel, but also financially for the society and the municipality.

This study aims to verify the efficacy / effectiveness of treatment with transcranial direct therapy (TDCS) in patients with Persistent Covid who present headaches, migraines and chronic pain, such as arthralgias and myalgias. Transcranial Direct Therapy is used in the field of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, with results that prove to be effective for the treatment of patients suffering from symptoms such as migraines, headaches, chronic pain, fibromyalgia or chronic neuropathic pain. As can be seen, in the case of patients with Persistent Covid we find several of these symptoms, so it is suggested that, if Transcranial Direct Current Therapy (TDCs) is giving such good results, relieving these symptoms, why can not give such good results and help so much in patients with Persistent Covid, If many of the symptoms are the same, even if the origin or cause is different.

The aim of this project is to investigate the effects of riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, on preventing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in ultramarathon athletes through a randomized placebo-controlled study.

The aim of our study is to investigate the effect of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization therapy on delayed onset muscle soreness

Case series, repeated-measures design, pilot study. Adult, female, migraine patients underwent seven Ischemic Compression Myofascial Trigger Points (IC-MTrPs) therapy sessions. The aim of the study is to investigate whether therapy of the shoulder girdle and neck muscles by deactivating MTrPs causes modification of biomechanical and biochemical variables in the blood and reduces headache in people with migraine, improving their quality of life by improving their health. People qualified for the study were divided into 3 groups according to the type of migraine: CM group - patients with chronic migraine EMa group - patients with paroxysmal migraine with aura EMb group - patients with paroxysmal migraine without an aura. All patients underwent 7 interventions in the area of the muscles of the shoulder girdle and neck (by deactivating trigger points) performed every 2 or 3 days. They did not take any headache medications during the treatment period. However, during a migraine attack, they could undergo treatments and research measurements. Biomechanical measurements of the cervical spine, shoulder girdle muscles and blood chemistry were performed before, during and after the patients' therapy. All treatments were performed on the following muscles: m. trapesius pars descendent (trapezius upper), m. sternocleidomastoideus (sternocleidomastoid), m. temporalis (temporal), m. legator scapulae (levator scapula), m. supraspinatus (supraspinatus), m. suboccipitales (suboccipital).

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of a pre-exercise, single practical dose of watermelon juice, Gatorade, sugar water or water on heart rate recovery, blood lactate levels, and 24-hour post exercise muscle soreness.

Rape is a common cause of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among women, as around 30-50% will develop PTSD in the aftermath of rape. A modified protocol based on Prolonged Exposure Therapy (mPE), has been developed, consisting of three to five once or twice weekly 60 minutes sessions, and studies indicate that if implemented early after rape, mPE may prevent the development of PTSD. The aim of the study is to conduct a multi-site (4 Sexual assault care centers in Norway) randomized control trial (RCT) in which patients are recruited early after rape, and randomized to intervention (mPE) or treatment as usual (TAU).

Peripheral neuropathy from paclitaxel is a cause for concern. This situation also affects the patient, family and healthcare professionals. All health personnel are responsible for its care. With this study, it will be possible to create evidence for nursing practices and increase the quality of life by relieving symptoms.

The purpose of the study is to investigate Joint Hypermobility Syndrome (JHS) and its effect on delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and recovery time. The hypothesis is that people with JHS will experience increased DOMS when compared to non-hypermobile people. The results this study may assist and add to the body of knowledge when treating and exercising patients with JHS, as considerations can possibly be made when treating this population. Subjects with JHS may experience greater DOMS and require more time to recover between treatment sessions.

Previous research suggests that general practitioners find handling patients with shoulder pain difficult and that the current care for shoulder pain is not in line with the best available evidence (1).This project aims to assess the effectiveness, costs and implementation of an evidence-based guideline for shoulder pain in general practice.
