Socioeconomic status, knee pain, and epigenetic aging in community-dwelling middle-to-older age adults.

Chronic musculoskeletal pain is often associated with lower socioeconomic status (SES). SES correlates with psychological and environmental conditions that could contribute to the disproportionate burden of chronic stress. Chronic stress […]

Rapid thalamocortical network switching mediated by cortical synchronization underlies propofol-induced EEG signatures: a biophysical model.

Propofol-mediated unconsciousness elicits strong alpha/low-beta and slow oscillations in the electroencephalogram (EEG) of patients. As anesthetic dose increases, the EEG signal changes in ways that give clues to the level […]

Fibroblast-derived PI16 sustains inflammatory pain via regulation of CD206 myeloid cells.

Originally identified in fibroblasts, Protease Inhibitor (PI)16 was recently shown to be crucial for the development of neuropathic pain via effects on blood-nerve barrier permeability and leukocyte infiltration, though its […]

Pharmacological interventions for pruritus in adult palliative care patients.

This is the second update of the original Cochrane review published in 2013 (issue 6), which was updated in 2016 (issue 11). Pruritus occurs in patients with disparate underlying diseases […]

Shank2 identifies a subset of glycinergic neurons involved in altered nociception in an autism model.

Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) patients experience disturbed nociception in the form of either hyposensitivity to pain or allodynia. A substantial amount of processing of somatosensory and nociceptive stimulus takes place […]

Intra-articular Hyaluronic Acid Treatments for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Systematic Review of Product Properties.

There are many intra-articular hyaluronic acid (IA-HA) products on the market that have known intrinsic differences in molecular size, source, and structure. The current review summarizes existing evidence describing and […]

Repeat mild traumatic brain injuries (RmTBI) modify nociception and disrupt orexinergic connectivity within the descending pain pathway.

Repeat mild traumatic brain injuries (RmTBI) result in substantial burden to the public health system given their association with chronic post-injury pathologies, such as chronic pain and post-traumatic headache. Although […]

Inhibition of tumor-derived CCL2 expression attenuates tactile allodynia in NCTC 2472 fibrosarcoma-inoculated mice.

Neuropathic pain associated with cancers is caused by tumor growth compressing and damaging nerves, which would also be enhanced by inflammatory factors through sensitizing nociceptor neurons. One troublesome hallmark symptom […]

Is movement variability altered in people with chronic non-specific low back pain? A systematic review.

Variability in spine kinematics is a common motor adaptation to pain, which has been measured in various ways. However, it remains unclear whether low back pain (LBP) is typically characterised […]

Nociceptive withdrawal reflexes of the trunk muscles in chronic low back pain.

Individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP) move their spine differently. Changes in brain motor areas have been observed and suggested as a mechanism underlying spine movement alteration. Nociceptive withdrawal […]
