Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation in Fibromyalgia Syndrome
Research on repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is increasing rapidly. High-frequency rTMS administration to FMS patients is reported to restore intracortical facilitation and provide successful pain relief. This finding supports restoration of cortical stimulation as one of the possible mechanisms of action for rTMS. One treatment …
EMG-Based Evaluation of Occlusal Splint and Masseter Botox Effects on Head and Neck Muscles
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the individual and combined effects of occlusal splint therapy and botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injections into the masseter muscle on the activity of head and neck muscles in patients diagnosed with myofascial pain syndrome (MPS). MPS is a common subtype of …

Effects and Mechanisms of Pain Neuroscience Education in Patients With Fibromyalgia
This randomized controlled trials study aims, first, to determine the effectiveness of a nurse-led PNE program designed by a multidisciplinary team, compared with an active control group on pain intensity, fibromyalgia (FM) severity, pain catastrophizing, and cognitive performance in patients with FM. Second, to determine the mediator role of pain …
Effects of Breathing and Attention Training (BAT) on Pain Modulation
The hypersensitivity of fibromyalgia is associated with abnormal pain modulation within the CNS, but not with peripheral or central sensitization. Many brain areas that contribute to modulation of pain are known, but their testing is complex and expensive. Quantitative sensory testing is easier to perform and repeatable. Therefore, it will …
Metformin for Fibromyalgia Symptoms (INFORM Trial)
The main purpose of the project is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low dose metformin for improving symptoms associated with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) via modulating neuroinflammatory pathways. The investigators hypothesize that FMS patients in the low-dose metformin conditions will show greater improvement in FMS symptoms than those who …
