BACKGROUND Helicobacter cinaedi is a rare bacterium, accounting for only 0.2% of the positive isolates in blood cultures. Previous reports note that patients with H. cinaedi infection often have under...
Exercise therapy is occasionally considered as an initial treatment for temporomandibular disorders. However, pain can be exacerbated during exercise therapy....
To investigate the immediate curative effects of exercise therapy in patients with masticatory muscle myalgia....
Fifty-nine patients with masticatory muscle myalgia were included. Therapists performed exercise therapy (stretched the painful masseter and/or cervical muscles along the direction of muscle contracti...
Mouth opening increased from 41 (IQR 38-43) to 46 (IQR 43-48) mm and pain alleviation from 48 (IQR 31-56) to 21 (IQR 10-56) immediately following exercise therapy (p < .001 for both). None of the pati...
Exercise therapy immediately enlarged the mouth opening distance and reduced myalgia; therefore, it could be helpful in managing masticatory muscle myalgia....
Botulinum toxin type A (BTA) is applied in muscle hyperactivity disorders and injected into affected muscles, producing deep and persistent muscle relaxation. Several multidisciplinary groups investig...
Botulinum toxin (BTX) is becoming widely used as an adjunct to conservative management of myalgia-predominant temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) with reports of improved quality of life. There is, how...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines have been delivered worldwide to prevent the spread of the disease, and almost all Japanese have received the mRNA vaccines "BNT162b2" (Pfizer-BioNTech) or...
Many studies have revealed high comorbidity and a clear association between temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and migraine. Furthermore, evidence points out that common psychological and behavioral fa...
The main goal of this study was to describe the psychological and behavioral factors involved in TMD myalgia and migraine....
A sample of 142 participants were recruited to form 4 groups: migraine patients (ICHD-III criteria), painful-TMD patients (Myalgia DC/TMD criteria), patients suffering from both pathologies according ...
The TMD myalgia patients, in general, showed a state of elevated anxiety, somatization, and reduced coping strategies, while the patients with migraine presented greater anxiety symptoms, depression (...
According to the data of the present study, situational anxiety (transient emotional state), together with the lack of coping strategies, could be more associated with TMD myalgia, while anxiety, as a...
(1) To determine the dose-response relationship of therapeutic ultrasound for TMD-related pain in the masseter muscle among four doses comprised of two intensities (0.4 W/cm...
A total of 28 adult women with bilateral myalgia were randomly allocated to one of the four intervention doses. Therapeutic ultrasound was applied on each side of the masseter sequentially for 5 minut...
Self-reported pain scores showed neither significant main effects nor significant interaction among the intensity or duty cycle doses (all P > .05). The change in the pressure pain threshold of the ma...
There was an increase in the pressure pain threshold of the painful masticatory muscles and an increase in intraoral temperature adjacent to the treated area immediately after the use of ultrasound at...
We describe an unusual presentation of myeloperoxidase positive antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis managed by a multidisciplinary approach. A 75-year-old man gave a 3-wee...
Protracted febrile myalgia syndrome (PFMS) is a rare manifestation of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), characterized by myalgia, fever and elevated inflammatory markers lasting several weeks. As th...
1. To perform a review of literature and rheumatology textbooks focused on clinical features and treatment of PFMS in children. 2. To present our own case....
All articles in Pub Med generated using the keywords "protracted febrile myalgia" and information on PFMS in seven rheumatology textbooks were collected. The systematic review was supplemented with ou...
In total, 18 articles with 78 pediatric patients (including our own) were retrieved. More than half of the patients presented with PFMS as the first manifestation of FMF. All complained of myalgia, 65...
The long duration of PFMS may be misleading to clinicians especially if PFMS occurs at manifestation of FMF. The fact that more than half of the reported patients experienced PFMS as the presenting sy...
Pelvic floor physical therapy (PFPT) is first-line therapy for treatment of pelvic floor tension myalgia (PFTM). Pelvic floor trigger point injections (PFTPI) are added if symptoms are refractive to c...
This was a retrospective cohort analysis of 87 female patients with PFTM who underwent PFTPI alone or PFTPI immediately followed by PFPT. Visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores were recorded pre-treatm...
Of the 87 patients in this study, 22 received PFTPI alone and 65 patients received PFTPI followed by PFPT. The median pre-treatment VAS score was 8 for both groups. The median post-treatment score was...
PFTPI immediately followed by PFPT offered more improvement in pain for patients with PFTM. This may be due to greater tolerance of myofascial release immediately following injections....
