Neuropathic Pain Etiology Leads to Variable Health-Related Quality of Life Measures
One aim of this study was to compare breast cancer survivors and HIV patients, both with neuropathic pain, with regard to psychological factors and health-related quality of life.
NfL Levels May Serve as a Useful Biomarker in Hereditary ATTR Amyloidosis
The primary goal of this study was to evaluate long-term change in neurofilament light chain levels in response to patisiran in patients with ATTRv amyloidosis enrolled in the Global OLE study.
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors Increase Risk of Neurologic Toxicities
Investigators evaluated the characteristics and risk factors for neurologic adverse events associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Patisiran Safe and Effective for Hereditary Transthyretin-Mediated Amyloidosis
A team of researchers sought to describe efficacy and safety analyses of the Global Open-Label Extension (OLE) study of patisiran for hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis with polyneuropathy.
Spinal Cord Stimulation May Provide Relief in Painful Diabetic Neuropathy
Because current treatment options are not effective for many patients with painful diabetic neuropathy, investigators evaluated the impact of spinal cord stimulation on those with this progressive chronic pain condition.
Minocycline May Reduce Pain of Some Patients With Neuropathic Pain
The researchers reviewed studies evaluating the effectiveness of minocycline in alleviating neuropathic pain because it reduces microglial activation, which suggests that it may reduce neuropathic pain.
Changes in B12, MMA, and Homocysteine Linked to Peripheral Neuropathy
The researchers investigated how low levels of B vitamins were associated with peripheral neuropathy and the effect of vitamin treatment on symptoms of pain.
Review: Pain of Radiation Therapy Increases With Frequency of Its Use
The authors of this review present key epidemiologic data about cancer patients vulnerable for each pain syndrome along with evidence for the management for each condition.
