“…For the AAE, there were improvements in PSQI total (p=0.02) and in Pain-Related Catastrophising Thoughts Scale (PRCTS) (p=0.01) (66). The Pilates method is a recommended form of exercise for healthy individuals, but it can also lead to a better quality of life and pain reduction in FM patients, similarly to aerobic exercise.…”

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome of unknown aetiology characterised by chronic pain, fatigue, and disturbed sleep. This review presents and summarises the 2020 literature on FM by retrieving all articles indexed in PubMed between 1 January 2020 and 31 December 2020. The attention of the scientific community towards FM is constantly growing, and this year's review is focused on the diagnostic, pathogenetic and therapeutic aspects of this syndrome. In particular, the treatment options for FM, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological, have been extensively studied.

Introdução: A síndrome de fibromialgia (SFM) é caracterizada como um quadro de dor muscular crônica e generalizada, que causa principalmente diminuição da capacidade funcional e alterações no aspecto emocional do paciente. O exercício físico (EF) pode promover efeitos distintos na SFM a depender do método aplicado: treinamento aeróbico (TA) isolado, treinamento resistido (TR) isolado, ou a combinação de ambos como treinamento concorrente (TC). Objetivo: Sintetizar os dados de ensaios clínicos sobre os efeitos do treinamento resistido e do treinamento aeróbico em pessoas com SFM. Métodos: As buscas foram realizadas nos bancos de dados PubMed, SciELo, Virtual Health Library, Scopus e Web of Science. Foram analisados artigos publicados entre 2009 e 2020. Resultados: Foram incluídos 18 ensaios clínicos randomizados para compor a discussão desta revisão. Ao todo foram analisadas 1.136 pessoas com SFM que participaram das intervenções com EF; 10 estudos utilizaram TR como método de intervenção; 8 aplicaram TA e 3 empregaram o TC. Em 3 estudos foram utilizados mais de um método como estratégia. Os estudos apontaram que ao final das intervenções, houve melhoras significativas em aspectos biológicos e psicofisiológicos. Conclusão: Os artigos analisados sugeriram que o EF por meio tanto do TR quanto do TA, isolado ou combinado, é uma alternativa de tratamento para a população com SFM, por serem intervenções de baixo custo financeiro e proporcionarem melhoras significativas para esses pacientes.

The use of Pilates for pain control in patients with fibromyalgia

Introduction: Although the Pilates method is commonly used to treat fibromyalgia (FM) in clinical practice, research is scarce, and little is known about its real effectiveness in pain management. Objective: Systematically review the literature to determine whether Pilates affects pain control in FM patients. Methods: The PubMed, Science Direct, PEDro and Cochrane databases were searched to identify randomized controlled trials that investigated the effects of Pilates in individuals diagnosed with FM. The descriptors used were: “pilates based exercise” OR “pilates training” OR “pilates exercise” OR “pilates” AND “fibromyalgia.” Independent reviewers performed abstract/full-text screening, data extraction, and methodological quality assessments using the PEDro scale. Results: The search identified 646 potential articles, four of which were used in the analysis. The Pilates method had positive effects on pain control, physical function, quality of life and biopsychosocial factors such as stress and depression in individuals with FM in four studies. However, improvement in these parameters did not differ between intervention groups in three studies. Additionally, the control group showed no significant improvement for the same parameters in one study. The PEDro scale scores of the studies ranged from 6 to 8 points. Conclusion: Evidence suggests that Pilates influences pain control in individuals with FM, and is more effective than no intervention or minimal intervention in the treatment of FM.
