简要总结
In our study, we aimed to evaluate and compare the effects of low-intensity aerobic exercise training with blood flow restriction and without blood flow restriction, on pain, functional status, quality of life and catecholamine metabolite levels in 24-hour urine in adults with Fibromyalgia.
详细描述
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance, cognitive disorder and other physical symptoms that negatively affect physical and sensory functions and impair quality of life. [1]
Fibromyalgia is seen in the society at 2-4%, and the ratio of women to men is 9:1. It is seen most often between the ages of 45 and 60. Neuroendocrine deviations arise with the contribution of central sensitization and / or peripheral pain mechanisms as a result of environmentally related physiological and psychological stresses of people with genetic predisposition.[2]
The depletion of biogenic amines in the central nervous system is blamed on the basis of major symptoms such as musculoskeletal pain, muscle fatigue, sleep disturbance, and comorbid chronic depression, anxiety, migraine, which are clinically observed in fibromyalgia. Decreased levels of aminergic neurotransmitters is detected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of fibromyalgia patients, especially serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine.[3]
Studies have found that different exercise programs have positive effects on pain and functionality in fibromyalgia cases, and no side effects of these exercise programs have been observed. Aerobic exercise training is one of the most studied exercise modalities in fibromyalgia patients.[4]
However, an increase in post-exercise pain was also found in patients with fibromyalgia due to a decrease in muscle blood flow, defect in muscle contraction physiology and a change in post-exercise pain modulation. In addition, it has been reported that the hormone response given to the exercise is impaired. All of these disorders can decrease patients' compliance to exercise.[5]

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) score
时间窗: Baseline, Immediately after the intervention , 3 months after the intervention period
The Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) was developed by clinicians at the Oregon Health Sciences University in the late 1980s to capture and evaluate the total spectrum of fibromyalgia-related problems and response to treatment. It was first used in 1991 and is still an indicator of therapeutic effectiveness today. it is used frequently. It consists of 10 questions to measure physical, emotional, cognitive and motivational symptoms such as physical disability, pain, fatigue, joint stiffness, depression and anxiety in fibromyalgia. Each question has been scored within itself. The total score will be between 0-100. 100 points indicate the highest exposure to the disease.
