Brain-computer interface relieves chronic chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: BCI is a promising treatment for CIPN and may have a longer lasting effect than placebo (nonspecific BCI), which is an important consideration for long-term symptom relief. Although scientifically interesting, the ability to separate real from placebo treatment may not be as important as understanding the placebo effects differently from effects of the intervention.PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: Chemotherapy-induced nerve pain (neuropathy) can be disabling for cancer survivors; however, the way symptoms are felt depends on how the brain interprets the signals from nerves in the body. We determined that the perception...

The Efficacy of Stellate Ganglion Blockade in Herpetic Neuralgia: A Case Report
Cureus. 2023 Aug 20;15(8):e43805. doi: 10.7759/cureus.43805. eCollection 2023 Aug.ABSTRACTThe varicella-zoster virus can reactivate in patients with impaired cell-mediated immunity, resulting in herpes zoster (HZ) and sometimes in herpetic neuralgia (HN). Stellate ganglion blockade (SGB) has been studied for the treatment of HN and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), but its effectiveness in preventing PHN in patients with acute HZ is not well-established. Here, we present a case of a 75-year-old woman who underwent SGB for HN of the right upper limb. The patient had been treated with antivirals and various analgesics, but adver...

Improving the quality of care of Canadians waiting for elective surgery: an important health care priority
Can J Surg. 2023 Sep 21;66(5):E474-E475. doi: 10.1503/cjs.015922. Print 2023 Sep-Oct.ABSTRACTSummaryThe backlog of cases on surgical wait lists is a substantial problem for surgical patients, their families, surgeons, health care systems and governments. There are several approaches governments can take to improve the health, well-being and surgical outcomes of waiting patients. First, provinces should consider patient-centred approaches to triaging that reflect pain, symptoms or functional gain, and approaches using multidisciplinary teams or centralized triage. Second, governments could provide prehabilitation and mental...

Effects of Savoring Meditation on Positive Emotions and Pain-Related Brain Function: A Mechanistic Randomized Controlled Trial in People With Rheumatoid Arthritis
medRxiv. 2023 Sep 8:2023.09.07.23294949. doi: 10.1101/2023.09.07.23294949. Preprint.ABSTRACTPositive emotions are a promising target for intervention in chronic pain, but mixed findings across trials to date suggest that existing interventions may not be optimized to efficiently engage the target. The aim of the current mechanistic randomized controlled trial was to test the effects of a single skill positive emotion-enhancing intervention called Savoring Meditation on pain-related neural and behavioral targets in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Participants included 44 patients with a physician-confirmed diagnosi...

Ollier Disease: A Case Report and Review of Treatment Options
In this report, we describe the case of an 11-year-old female who presented to her physician with pain and swelling of her right ring and small fingers after playing in a swimming pool with no obvious mechanism of trauma. A routine, plain radiographic evaluation of her hand revealed the presence of multiple enchondromatosis. We hope to use this case to highlight the surgical management options for young patients with Ollier disease and discuss circumstances in which surgical management may not be indicated.PMID:37731444 | PMC:PMC10509006 | DOI:10.7759/cureus.43815

Urgent Juxtarenal Aortic Aneurysm Repair With Modified Off-the-shelf Endograft to Preserve Intercostal Arteries and Branch Incorporation by Transfemoral Access
CONCLUSION: t-Branch-modified endograft to limit aortic coverage is an alternative option in urgent cases to diminish the risk of spinal cord injury, and association of steerable sheaths with branch incorporation is leading complex aortic repairs to an even less invasive procedure.CLINICAL IMPACT: This paper highlights the possibility of performing complex endovascular aortic repair in an urgent setting with modification of an off-the-shelf multi branched endograft limiting intercostal arteries coverage, thereby diminishing the risk of spinal cord ischemia. This technical innovation provides an alternative for clinicians w...

Factors associated with sarcopenia in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis: results from the IORRA cohort study
Clin Rheumatol. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1007/s10067-023-06779-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTo investigate the prevalence of and factors associated with sarcopenia in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We analyzed a cross-section of patients with RA participating in the Institute of Rheumatology Rheumatoid Arthritis cohort survey in 2021. Participants completed self-administered questionnaires, including a 5-item sarcopenia screening index (SARC-F). Patients with a SARC-F score of 4 or higher were categorized as having sarcopenia. Among 2416 Japanese patients with RA (2113 women and 303 men; mean age 63.9 ye...

Phenyl glycosides from < em > Bacopa monnieri < /em > with their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities
This study described the isolation and identification of one new, bacomoside D3 (1), and seven known phenyl glycosides (2 - 8). The structures of isolates were established by analysis of their spectroscopic data or hydrolysis followed by HPLC analysis together with a comparison to those reported in the literature. These compounds were evaluated for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Among them, compounds 4 and 5 exhibited strong DPPH radical scavenging activity with IC50 values of 9.77 ± 0.08 and 3.50 ± 0.04 µM, respectively. Compounds 2 and 5 significantly inhibited TNF-α production in LPS-stimulated RAW264...

A cross-sectional study of multidimensional fatigue in biologic-treated rheumatoid arthritis: which variables play a role?
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate that effectively addressing fatigue in RA patients requires an individualized approach. This approach should acknowledge the varying degrees of fatigue across different fatigue dimensions (physical or mental), while also taking into account the patient's mental health problems, pain levels, and disability levels.PMID:37731384 | DOI:10.1080/09638288.2023.2258333

Differences in strength and fatigue resistance of scapular protractors and retractors between symptomatic and asymptomatic dyskinesis
CONCLUSIONS: Scapular dyskinesis is characterized by weaker scapular protractors and reduced agonist/antagonist ratios, especially when symptomatic. Targeting the scapular protractors for a better balance of scapular musculature in rehabilitation and strengthening programs may improve shoulder symptoms and function, but more interventional studies are required.PMID:37734729 | DOI:10.4085/1062-6050-0092.23

Digital Health Applications in the Area of Mental Health —a Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: Most of the published studies display a high risk of bias, both because of the manufacturers' participation and because of methodological deficiencies. DiGA are an increasingly important therapeutic modality in psychiatry. The available evidence indicates that treatment effects are indeed present, but prospective comparisons with established treatments are still entirely lacking.PMID:37732500 | DOI:10.3238/arztebl.m2023.0208
