Low-Energy Shock Wave Suppresses Prostatic Pain and Inflammation by Modulating Mitochondrial Dynamics Regulators on a Carrageenan-Induced Prostatitis Model in Rats.

A low-energy shock wave (LESW) has therapeutic effects on chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS); however, its mechanism of action remains unclear. We explored the effects of LESW on the […]

Major depressive disorders in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and rheumatoid arthritis.

Various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases consisting of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), are found to have a substantial societal burden, increased healthcare costs, and progressive disability. Studies suggest […]

Pelvic mapping to explore patterns of chronic pelvic pain.

Chronic pelvic pain syndromes (CPPS) are commonly encountered by urologists and urogynecologists and pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Body maps have been helpful adjuncts to verbal descriptions of pain and […]

Auricular Vagal Nerve Stimulation Inhibited Central Nerve Growth Factor/Tropomyosin Receptor Kinase A/Phospholipase C-Gamma Signaling Pathway in Functional Dyspepsia Model Rats With Gastric Hypersensitivity.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), which has a complicated pathophysiologic process, is a common functional gastrointestinal disease. Gastric hypersensitivity is the key pathophysiological factor in patients with FD with chronic visceral pain. […]

MicroRNA-155-5p inhibition alleviates irritable bowel syndrome by increasing claudin-1 and ZO-1 expression.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal disease. Emerging studies have demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) are commonly dysregulated in patients with IBS, and aberrant miRNAs are implicated in IBS […]

Activation of the High-Affinity Choline Transporter 1 in the Spinal Cord Relieves Stress-Induced Hyperalgesia.

The mechanism underlying irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a common disease with hyperalgesia, remains elusive. The spinal cholinergic system is involved in pain modulation, but its role in IBS is unknown.

Comorbid extra-intestinal central sensitization conditions worsen irritable bowel syndrome in primary care patients.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is characterized as a central sensitization syndrome (CSS), a group of conditions including fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and restless leg syndrome (RLS) among others with frequent comorbidities […]

Piezo2 mediates visceral mechanosensation: A new therapeutic target for gut pain?

Mechanical distension/stretch in the colon provokes visceral hypersensitivity and pain. In this issue of Neuron, Xie et al. report that mechanosensitive Piezo2 channels, expressed by TRPV1-lineage nociceptors, are involved in visceral […]

Altered brain activities in mesocorticolimbic pathway in primary dysmenorrhea patients of long-term menstrual pain.

Patients with primary dysmenorrhea (PDM) often present with abnormalities other than dysmenorrhea including co-occurrence with other chronic pain conditions and central sensitization. Changes in brain activity in PDM have been […]
