A narrative literature review about alpha‐lipoic acid role in dry eye and ocular surface disease
Abstract Ocular surface diseases (OSD) include various conditions that affect the eye's surface, causing discomfort and pain. One such condition, dry eye disease (DED), is a multifactorial disorder that significantly impacts patients' quality of life, with prevalence rates ranging from 5% to 50% and higher incidence in women.

Where Does It All Itch? Exploring the Characteristics of Pruritus in Small Fiber Neuropathy
ABSTRACT Background Chronic itch, or pruritus, is a common discomfort of the skin. Chronic itch has been described as a symptom of small fiber neuropathy (SFN), a disorder affecting the small myelinated Aδ‐ and unmyelinated C‐fibers. While prior studies report itch rates in SFN ranging from 63%–68%, a distinct pattern has not been identified.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Skin biopsies are the primary diagnostic test for small fiber neuropathy, but recently corneal confocal microscopy (CCM) has been developed as an alternative. We compared the correlations of each of these morphometric assessments with peripheral nerve function evaluated through comprehensive quantitative sensory testing ...

Decoding Pain: Next‐Generation In Vitro Systems for Mechanistic Insights and Drug Discovery
Developing an in vitro pain model that mimics essential features of the in vivo pain circuit requires careful consideration of multiple components and choices. These include selecting the cellular population for the model, choosing from the origin of nociceptors and other cells that are cultured, deciding between 3D or 2D dimensions, designing the ...
