Non-pharmacological approach to neuropathic pain: the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation
(SPRINGER, 2010)
Neuromodulation is the branch of neurophysiology related to the therapeutic effects of electrical stimulations of the nervous system. There are currently different practical applications of neuromodulation techniques for ...
Translation to Portuguese and Validation of the Douleur Neuropathique 4 Questionnaire
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2010)
The Douleur Neuropathique 4 (DN4) questionnaire was developed by the French Neuropathic Pain Group and is a simple and objective tool, with the ability to distinguish nociceptive from neuropathic pain. The purpose of this ...
Anti-allodynic and anti-oedematogenic properties of the extract and lignans from Phyllanthus amarus in models of persistent inflammatory and neuropathic pain
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2003)
The spinal anti-inflammatory mechanism of motor cortex stimulation: cause of success and refractoriness in neuropathic pain?
(BioMed Central, 2015)
Abstract
Background
Motor cortex stimulation (MCS) is an effective treatment in neuropathic pain refractory to pharmacological management. However, analgesia is not ...
Participation of neuronal nitric oxide synthase in experimental neuropathic pain induced by sciatic nerve transection
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2010)
Nerve injury leads to a neuropathic pain state that results from central sensitization. This phenomenom is mediated by NMDA receptors and may involve the production of nitric oxide (NO). In this study, we investigated the ...
Somesthetic, gustatory, olfactory function and salivary flow in patients with neuropathic trigeminal pain
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2010)
OBJECTIVES: To determine somesthetic, olfactory, gustative and salivary abnormalities in patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS), idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia (ITN) and trigeminal postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). SUBJECTS ...
The effect of intrathecal gabapentin on neuropathic pain is independent of the integrity of the dorsolateral funiculus in rats
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTDOXFORD, 2012)
Aim: This study evaluates the contribution of inhibitory pain pathways that descend to the spinal cord through the dorsolateral funiculus (DLF) on the effect of intrathecal gabapentin against spinal nerve ligation (SNL)-induced ...
Progesterone reduces the expression of spinal cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase and prevents allodynia in a rat model of central neuropathic pain
(Wiley, 2014-03-30)
Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in the development of chronic pain that is refractory to conventional treatment. Progesterone, a neuroprotective steroid, may offer a promising perspective in pain modulation after central ...
Citral: A monoterpene with prophylactic and therapeutic anti-nociceptive effects in experimental models of acute and chronic pain
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-08-05)
Citral (3,7-dimethy1-2,6-octadienal) is an open-chain monoterpenoid present in the essential oils of several medicinal plants. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of orally administered citral in experimental ...
Manejo da dor inguinal crônica pós-hernioplastia (inguinodinia)
(Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões, 2011-02-01)
A dor inguinal crônica pós-herniorrafia é uma situação preocupante, pois aproximadamente 10% dos pacientes submetidos à hernioplastia inguinal apresenta os sintomas, que com frequência limita a capacidade física. A ...
