Fibromyalgia and unexplained widespread pain: The idiopathic cerebrospinal pressure dysregulation hypothesis
ABSTRACT
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a debilitating, widespread pain disorder that is assumed to originate from inappropriate
pain processing in the central nervous system. Psychological and behavioral factors are both believed to underlie
the pathogenesis and complicate the treatment. This hypothesis, however, has not yet been sufficiently supported by scientific evidence and accumulating evidence supports a peripheral neurological origin of the symptoms.
We postulate that FM and ...

Effects of Vitamin D Therapy on Quality of Life in Patients with Fibromyalgia
ABSTRACT Objective: The role of vitamin D in the etiopathogenesis of fibromyalgia and non-specific musculoskeletal pain is controversial. In our study, we aimed to investigate the effect of vitamin D therapy on quality of life in patients with fibromyalgia.
Materials and Methods: Seventy patients diagnosed with fibromyalgia and 65 age- and sex-matched controls were included in the study. Patients were grouped as deficient (<20 ng/mL), inadequate (20-30 ng/mL), and sufficient (>30 ng/mL) according to the ...

Effects of vitamin D optimization on quality of life of patients with fibromyalgia: A randomized controlled trial
Abstract
Background: Numerous studies have been conducted to evaluate the frequency of hypovitaminosis D in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and its association with FMS symptoms. This study aimed at assessing the effect of hypovitaminosis D on the symptoms and quality of life of patients with fibromyalgia.
Methods: A total of 74 FMS patients with hypovitaminosis D were randomly assigned into group A (Trazodone 25 mg at bedtime + vitamin D 50 000 IU weekly) and ...

A low fermentable oligo-di-mono-saccharides and polyols (FODMAP) diet is a balanced therapy for fi bromyalgia with nutritional and symptomatic benefi ts
Abstract
Introduction: Fibromyalgia is a chronic rheumatic disease producing widespread pain, associated to a major comorbidity -irritable bowel syndrome. Low FODMAPS diet (low fermentable oligo-di-mono-saccharides and polyols diet) has been effective in controlling irritable bowel syndrome symptoms. Overweight is an aggravating factor for fi bromyalgia. We studied effects of low fermentable oligo-di-mono-saccharides and polyols ...

Vitamin C, Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease
Abstract: Accumulating evidence in mice models of accelerated senescence indicates a rescuing role of ascorbic acid in premature aging. Supplementation of ascorbic acid appeared to halt cell growth, oxidative stress, telomere attrition, disorganization of chromatin, and excessive secretion of inflammatory factors, and extend lifespan. Interestingly, ascorbic acid (AA) was also found to positively modulate inflamm-aging and immunosenescence, two hallmarks of biological aging. Moreover, ascorbic acid has been shown to epigenetically regulate ...
