Trigeminal ganglion electrical stimulation relieves refractory trigeminal herpes zoster and prevents postherpetic neuralgia: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Introduction Herpes zoster is an acute condition caused by the reactivation of varicella zoster virus, often affecting the skin and mucosa. When varicella zoster virus invades the trigeminal ganglion, it can lead to trigeminal herpes zoster, with ...

Non‐Invasive Brain Stimulation in Chronic Pain: Current Evidence, Network Perspectives and Paths to Personalization

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Chronic pain reflects maladaptive network interactions across sensory, salience/affective, and descending modulatory pathways. We review evidence for non‐invasive brain stimulation—rTMS, tES, and low‐intensity focused ultrasound—highlighting modest, variable, and often short‐lived analgesic effects under conventional protocols.

TrkA abundance is increased in cutaneous nerves in bortezomib‐induced neuropathy

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Cutaneous nerves in bortezomib‐induced peripheral neuropathy (BIPN) show reduced nerve fiber density, increased TrkA expression, and enhanced dermal angiogenesis, highlighting a pathological switch in NGF/TrkA signaling that may contribute to nerve damage and pain. Abstract Tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA), a high‐affinity receptor for nerve growth

Genitofemoral neuralgia : adding to the burden of chronic vulvar pain [PDF]

, 2015
The vulva is a particularly common locus of chronic pain with neuropathic characteristics that occurs in women of any age, though most women with neuropathic type chronic vulvar pain will remain undiagnosed even following multiple physician visits. Here,

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

What is the prognosis of postherpetic neuralgia? [PDF]

, 2003
Postherpetic neuralgia occurs rarely among patients aged 70 years, 25% had some pain at 3 months, but only 10% had pain at 1 year, and none had severe pain.
