Active clinical trials for "Myofascial Pain Syndromes"

950 / 5.000 Çeviri sonuçları Celiac disease is an autoimmune proximal small bowel disease that develops as a persistent intolerance to gluten-like gluten in cereals, mainly wheat gluten and other cereal proteins such as barley, rye, and oats in genetically susceptible individuals. Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic musculoskeletal disease characterized by chronic widespread body pain, fatigue, morning stiffness, subjective swelling, sleep disturbance, intestinal problems, multiple somatic and cognitive problems, especially in the back, neck, shoulders and hips. In terms of intestinal symptoms, very similar findings can be observed between celiac disease and fibromyalgia. For this reason, the presence of celiac disease in FMS patients has been investigated in many studies and its frequency has been found to be high. However, the frequency of FMS in patients with celiac disease is not clear, and an overlooked diagnosis of fibromyalgia may leave many symptoms untreated.

Fibromyalgia is considered a chronic pain syndrome, non-inflammatory, of unknown etiology, which manifests itself in the musculoskeletal system in up to 2.5% of the general population, predominantly in females, mainly between 35 and 44 years old, having a direct impact on the quality of life of their patients (JUNIOR; GOLDENFUM; SIENA, 2012; HEYMANN et al., 2017). In 1990, eighteen (18) specific sites were defined as tender points which are used to better diagnose fibromyalgia (WOLFE et al., 2010). Due to its clinical and exclusion diagnosis, treatment usually starts late, which allows the progression of symptoms and corroborates its low efficiency in the long term (DE SOUSA BRAZ et al., 2011). Due to the ineffective results and significant side effects that conventional treatment with drugs such as antidepressants, analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs can provide, patients, physicians and researchers are looking for new main or adjuvant treatments, pharmacological and non-pharmacological (DE SOUSA BRAZ et al. al., 2011). In this context, it has been seen that the use of Cannabis sativa as a therapeutic option in fibromyalgia is promising, especially in reducing the pain caused by the disease and also the adjuvant symptoms, such as depression and sleep disorders (YASSIN; ORON; ROBINSON, 2019). This result must occur due to the action of cannabinoids, such as CBD and THC, on cannabinoid receptors distributed in peripheral nerves, spinal cord and supraspinal region, sites responsible for the reception, transmission and perception of pain (STE-MARIE et al., 2012). Currently, cannabinoids are considered safe analgesics with considerable efficacy, which demonstrates potential as a therapeutic option in the treatment of chronic pain, particularly in patients refractory to other treatments (HAUSER et al., 2018). In addition to its action on the painful mechanisms of fibromyalgia, the antidepressant effects of Cannabis are of great value in the treatment of fibromyalgia. These effects are explained by the modulation on serotonin 5-HT1A receptors, which has its effect exerted especially by CBD (ESPEJO-PORRAS et al., 2013). Considering that research has reported the effects of phytocannabinoids on the painful symptoms of fibromyalgia (HAUSER et al., 2018), the hypotheses of the present study are: Primary hypothesis: The dose-response curve and ED50 for the primary outcome, which is related to pain intensity, will be determined in the dose range between 0.1 and 10mg/day. The sensation of pain will be significantly reduced in participants receiving oral solution containing CBD/THC 10mg/day compared to those who will receive placebo. Secondary hypothesis: There will be a reduction in pain catastrophizing, as well as an improvement in the acceptance and action rate related to pain, a reduction in depression, an improvement in sleep latency and quality, a reduction in insomnia and an increase in the quality of life in patients treated with oral solution containing CBD/THC 10mg/day compared to those receiving placebo. Supporting Hypothesis: The tested CBD/THC solution will show efficacy and safety with no serious adverse effects.

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a very prevalent and debilitating chronic pain disorder that is difficult to treat. Mindfulness-based techniques are regarded as a very promising approach for the treatment of chronic pain and in particular FM. The Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) intervention, a mindfulness-based group intervention, has shown beneficial effects in opioid-treated chronic pain patients, including reduced pain severity, functional interference, and opioid dosing, by restoring neurophysiological and behavioral responses to reward. First evidence for a hypodopaminergic state and impaired reward processing in FM have been reported. However, little is known about its impact on dopamine (DA) function and in particular with regard to DA responses to monetary reward in FM. The aim of the present study protocol is to evaluate if MORE is able to restore the DA function in FM patients, in particular with regard to the DA responses to reward, and to reduce pain and mood complaints in FM.

This study is being performed to determine the safety and efficacy of Fralex Neuromodulation Therapy (F-NMT), delivered by the Fralex PRIMA device, in reducing chronic musculoskeletal pain associated with Fibromyalgia.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of milnacipran on how the brain processes pain in patients with fibromyalgia and to assess the relationship between this effect and brain activation patterns during functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Our hypothesis is that with comparison of effectiveness of two most common techniques of treatment for myofascial pain syndrome (injection of local anesthesia and ischemic compression) we could choice the most adequate to treat this disease. This way we could decrease the expenses with medicines, examinations, consultations and the time that women remains without a diagnosis and treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if DVS SR is safe and effective in the treatment of pain associated with fibromyalgia syndrome, and if so to identify the efficacious doses.

Participants will undertake a 12-week, open-label study of milnacipran in a well-characterized cohort of patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) who are 65 years and older to investigate the short-term efficacy and safety of this drug in the elderly population. The investigators hypothesize that milnacipran will be effective in treating fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), and will be prove to be safe when patients are selected for the absence of pre-existing blood pressure abnormalities and other serious medical conditions.

This is a Phase 3, open-label, extension trial designed to evaluate the long term safety and efficacy over 3 months of TNX-102 SL tablets taken daily at bedtime for the treatment of Fibromyalgia (FM). Patients recruits into this trial are those who have successfully completed the double-blind studies; TNX-CY-F301 and TNX-CY-F302. Anticipated start for TNX-CY-F302 is for March 2016. Patients will not be made aware of the therapy they received during the double-blind study.

This study will compare sleep, pain and daytime sleepiness/fatigue in people with insomnia co-morbid with fibromyalgia while treated short-term with suvorexant 20 mg versus placebo.
