PENFS (percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulation) is an FDA-cleared acupuncture-like therapy applied to the external ear targeting several cranial nerve branches including the auricular branch of the vagus nerve to improve pain, physical function, and reduce symptoms of opioid withdrawal. PENFS has been previously shown to provide improvements in fibromyalgia, …
This study aimed to evaluate the specificity and sensitivity of the diagnostic criteria for fibromyalgia after conducting local validation in China.
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain syndrome characterized by impaired perception, transmission, and processing of nociceptive stimuli and causing widespread pain. Pain in FM is the disease itself and is characterized by nociplastic pain that may occur independently of any peripheral nociceptor activity or be felt without disease or damage …
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition that causes widespread pain, fatigue, and other symptoms, significantly affecting quality of life. Unfortunately, there are few effective treatments available. Recently, medical cannabis has gained attention as a potential treatment, leading many countries to approve its use for fibromyalgia. However, its success is limited-only about …
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome with clinical symptoms involving multiple systems. The efficacy of current treatments is inadequate, and more alternative modalities are needed for the management of FM patients. The parasympathetic vagus nerve innervates and integrates sensory, motor, and autonomic systems and has been suggested to play a role …
A randomized trial of Basic Body Awareness Therapy (BBAT) is applied in fibromyalgia patients as compared with a control intervention consisting of stretching. Sessions of BBAT lasted 90 min each and took place twice a week form 12 weeks. The primary end point is a change in the biomarkers and …
Rationale: Recent evidence shows that Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD), even when administered in low, non-hallucinogenic doses, can produce analgesic effects and improve pain tolerance in a sample of healthy volunteers. Such results complement what was already observed with other serotonergic psychedelics such as psilocybin: survey studies and case series indicate …
This study aims to explore the usefulness of self-regulation of brain activity in patients with fibromyalgia. Patients will use real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) neurofeedback to observe and regulate their own brain activity while applying mental strategies to reduce fibromyalgia pain. The study consists of 2 magnetic resonance imaging …
The trial is designed to determine the added effect of active transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) when combined with a multimodal Active Pain Coping Program in individuals with fibromyalgia. The primary objective is to compare the effectiveness of active versus sham tDCS when both are delivered to the same standardized …
While walking exercises performed outdoors are important within the scope of aerobic exercise, the continuity of outdoor walking exercises can be negatively affected by different weather conditions. Walking exercises performed indoors on a treadmill are a good option for patients in terms of increasing exercise continuity and patient compliance. Walking …
