The second talk in the spring 2021 Integrative Medicine Research Lecture Series presented by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health is by Dr. Alicia Heapy of the Yale School of Medicine/Veterans Affairs Connecticut Healthcare System. Evidence supports behavioral and self-management therapies for people with chronic pain; however, there are many obstacles to their widespread implementation and uptake. Technology offers a way to address a number of such barriers. Dr. Heapy will discuss research she is leading in the Veterans Health Administration health care system on a nondrug intervention for pain —...

Healing the Opioid Crisis with Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE): Clinical Efficacy and Neurophysiological Mechanisms
Some of our most pressing “ diseases of despair, ” such as addiction and chronic pain, disrupt the brain ’ s capacity to experience healthy pleasure and extract meaning from naturally rewarding events and experiences. For example, prolonged opioid use in the context of chronic pain and distress can blunt positive emotions and compel opioid misuse as a way to hold on to a shrinking sense of well-being.In the first talk of the spring 2021 Integrative Medicine Research Lecture Series presented by the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, Dr. Eric Garland of the University of Utah will describe the de...

Developing Meaningful Endpoints for Pain Clinical Trials (Day 2)
More than 25 million Americans suffer from daily chronic pain, a highly debilitating medical condition that is complex and difficult to manage. In recent decades, there has been an overreliance on the prescription of opioids for chronic pain, contributing to a significant and alarming epidemic of opioid overdose deaths and addiction. Innovative scientific solutions to develop non-opioid, non-addictive alternative treatment options are thus urgently needed. One of the goals of the Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative is to accelerate the discovery and preclinical development of new medications and devices t...

NIH HEAL Initiative Workshop on Myofascial Pain (Day 2)
It is estimated that 30 to 85 percent of patients with musculoskeletal pain are affected by myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) — pain originating from muscles and/or associated soft tissues such as fascia. Interactions between fascia and muscles remain mostly unknown and there is a strong need to address the contributions of the myofascial tissues to chronic pain. This represents one of the last “ unturned stones ” of all the tissue types involved in musculoskeletal pain. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering are proud to join forc...

Managing Chronic Pain in Individuals with Co-Occurring OUD, and Other Psychiatric Conditions
The intent of the workshop is to understand the state of the science on addressing chronic non-cancer pain and opioid use disorder (OUD), with and without other common comorbid psychiatric disorders. Using this knowledge base, invited attendees are charged with identifying research and infrastructure needs. Attendees will also address how these research priorities can enact meaningful and sustainable changes in treatment approaches in the next 5 years.Air date: 6/1/2020 8:30:00 AM (Source: Videocast - All Events)

Translational studies in patients with Autoinflammatory Diseases...from bedside to bench and back
Director's Seminar Series Dr. Goldbach-Mansky will present the work of her Laboratory of Clinical Immunology and Microbiology. Autoinflammatory diseases are a group of rare immune dysregulatory syndromes that present with unexplained fevers, rashes, joint pain, and inflammation in multiple organs, such as the central nervous system, the eyes, inner ears, bones, fat, blood vessels, lungs, and muscles. Many of the disease symptoms present very early in life, and patients do not have infections or malignacies. The discovery of single gene mutations, which modify the regulation of inflammatory pathways that are triggered by ex...
