Active clinical trials for "Syndrome"

Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are commonly used for post-menopausal women with hormone-positive breast cancer. Compared to tamoxifen, AIs improve breast cancer recurrence rates and lower 10-year breast cancer mortality. Unfortunately, nearly 2 out of 3 women with estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer treated with AIs experiences AIMSS, such as arthralgia, joint stiffness, and bone pain, and 30% of women with AIMSS report severe pain. AIMSS leads to poor adherence with therapy and discontinuation of therapy in up to 20% of patients. Despite the large number of women affected, current therapeutic interventions have shown only limited efficacy in improving AIMSS. Therefore, the presence of AIMSS may negatively impact breast cancer recurrence and survival. In this current trial, the plan is to utilize topical cannabinoid creams from Vireo Health that have been tested for potency and purity. Two distinct products with different THC/CBD ratios will be provided to patients at no cost; a) a THC-dominant cream (Red XS Balm with 375mg/jar and <20mg of CBD) and b) a CBD-dominant cream (Violet Balm with 2210mg CBD/jar and <0.3% THC). The study will explore the feasibility of doing larger, placebo controlled trials by first ensuring adequate patient interest, acceptable tolerability/safety of cream utilization, and preliminary efficacy measures. All patients completing assessments through day 14 will be allowed to choose either Red XS or Violet creams for an additional 2-week extension period.

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of Mobilization with Movement (MWM) on pain, function, and quality of life in patients with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) compared to conventional physiotherapy.

A double-blind placebo-controlled trial is conducted in order to evaluate the efficacy of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) and determine the statistical significance of the outcome variables. Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is defined as an oral burning sensation in the absence of clinical signs which could justify the syndrome. Recent studies suggest the existence of neurological factors as a possible cause of the disease.

The aim of this study is to analyze the effects of strictly defined physiotherapy in patients temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS). Patients will be clinically examined before starting physiotherapy and fill in the questionnaires. Subsequently, it will be followed up whether changes occur as a result of physiotherapy. This study is a pilot study and is intended to be hypothesis generating in nature. Based on the resulting hypothesis, it will be verified by a study with a control group.

The objective of this study is to assess the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of adjunctive therapy of LP352 in subjects with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies who completed participation in Study LP352-201.

Irritable bowel syndrome is the most common functional gastrointestinal disease and is characterized by high prevalence and chronic course.The pathology has a strong impact on the quality of life of affected patients and on health and social costs, these related to reduced productivity.The scarce efficacy and heavy side effects of traditional therapies lead these patients to often resort to alternative or complementary therapies. From the evaluation of the evidence of various probiotic preparations and food supplements, the investigators have used a commercial preparation characterized by the presence of bifidobacteria which have demonstrated some efficacy in thinking of improving the quality of life of these patients to evaluate quality of life, ability productivity and trend of some indices of disease severity in a small number of patients. These preliminary data could represent a starting point for more in-depth evaluations, also with placebo-controlled studies.

Patellofemoral pain syndrome is a common source of anterior knee pain. The causes of PFPS may be multifactorial such as biomechanical disorders, muscle weakness which affect the dynamic stability of lower limb and alter patellar tracking in trochlear groove. Moreover, the syndrome associated with muscular tightness of iliotibial band, gastrocnemius, soleus, hamstring and quadriceps. Strengthening and stretching exercises are effective in improving patient's symptoms. However, they do not sufficient in correction of kinematic changes associated with PFPS. Patellar mobilization is effective in improving patient'symptoms in cases with PFPS. However, studies that conducted patellar mobilization were either low quality studies or no study combined patellar mobilization with hip and knee exercises. Therefore, APTA guidelines recommended for conducting high quality study to investigate the effect of adding patellar mobilization to exercise therapy to support the definite recommendation delivered to therapists.

Fatigue is recognized as one of the most commonly presented long-term complaints in individuals previously infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Independent, single center, prospective study, to evaluate the efficacy, in consecutive BrS patients undergoing catheter ablation, at medium-long term follow-up after epicardial substrate homogenization. The target area is defined collecting signals using high density and high resolution mapping with equi-spaced electrode array. The ablation of abnormal fragmented prolonged low-frequency ventricular electrograms is performed by contact force catheter.

In this study, the efficacy of exercise to improve interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome symptoms and quality of life will be investigated.
