Psychophysical Assessment of Gustatory Function in Burning Mouth Syndrome: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate whether psychophysically assessed gustatory function differs between adults with burning mouth syndrome and age‐ and sex‐matched healthy controls, and to explore related sensory and physiological factors. Methods This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses ...

ABSTRACT Varicella zoster virus (VZV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) are major causes of viral meningitis and encephalitis. Standard intermittent intravenous acyclovir requires hospitalisation, reducing patient comfort and prolonging admissions. Continuous infusion may maintain therapeutic plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations while ...

Parametric Representations of Facial Expressions on PDE-Based Surfaces [PDF]
YesParameterisation of facial expressions on PDE surface representations of human faces are presented in this work. Taking advantage of the boundary-value approach inherent to Bloor-Wilson PDE method, facial expressions are achieved by manipulating the ...

Peripheral neurectomy in treatment of trigeminal neuralgia: A case report
Neuropathic pain is nonadaptive and does not contribute to healing, such as would be the case with pain attributable to tissue inflammation, where pain results in adaptive behaviors, such as use limitation, guarding, rest, and avoidance, which contribute

ABSTRACT Objective Trigeminal trophic syndrome (TTS) is a rare condition caused by trigeminal nerve injury, classically characterized by anaesthesia, paresthesia and facial ulceration. We present two cases of TTS successfully managed with regional nerve blocks and onabotulinumtoxinA. Methods Two patients—a 54‐year‐old woman and a 65‐year‐old man—with a

Chronic pain represents a complex debilitating condition that extends beyond the protective function of physiological pain, often persisting as an independent disease entity. Chronic primary and secondary pain syndromes reflect a multifaceted continuum involving nociceptive, neuropathic and nociplastic mechanisms.
