Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how the brain's pain sensitivity (central sensitization) relates to memory and thinking problems in people with fibromyalgia. Participating could help doctors understand and treat these symptoms better.
This study tests whether virtual reality versions of two tests (sit-to-stand and timed up-and-go) are reliable and meaningful for women with fibromyalgia. It aims to see if these VR tests can measure your physical function as well as the traditional versions, which might make assessment more engaging and accessible.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called TMS) can help reduce pain and improve mood in women with fibromyalgia. Researchers will use MRI scans and brain stimulation to understand how pain and reward circuits in the brain work.
This study looks at how different types of chronic low back pain affect your balance. It uses a special machine called the Biodex Balance System to measure your ability to balance, which may help doctors understand and treat your condition better.
This study looks at how the immune system might play a role in symptoms like dizziness (PoTS) and widespread pain (fibromyalgia). By comparing people with these conditions to healthy volunteers, they hope to find better ways to understand and treat these symptoms.
This study looks at how the brain and nerves process pain in people with knee pain or fibromyalgia. It compares them to pain-free people to understand differences in muscle signals.
