Sex difference in synaptic plasticity in the anterior cingulate cortex of adult mice

Molecular Brain, 2020
Sex differences in certain types of pain sensitivity and emotional responses have been previously reported. Synaptic plasticity is a key cellular mechanism for pain perception and emotional regulation, including long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term

Nitric Oxide Facilitates Long-Term Potentiation, But Not Long-Term Depression [PDF]

The Journal of Neuroscience, 1997
Reports that nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibition prevents the induction of long-term potentiation (LTP) have been controversial. Recent evidence suggests that NO may help to regulate the threshold for LTP induction. We have tested this hypothesis by examining the effects of stimulus frequency and train duration on synaptic plasticity in the presence

Longitudinal Relationship Between Pain and Depression in People With Inflammatory Arthritis: A Narrative Review

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
As many patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) have chronic pain, understanding how to best assess and manage pain in IA is a priority. Comorbid depression is prevalent in adults with IA, affecting 15% to 39% of people. Although pain and depression are thought to be associated in IA, this concept is largely based on cross‐sectional data.

Understanding Contributors of Resilience in Youth With Childhood‐Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Through a Socioecological Lens: A Mixed‐Methods Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aimed to identify themes contributing to resilience in childhood‐onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE), distinguish between profiles of resilience, and examine how they relate to underlying themes and patient characteristics. Methods We conducted a mixed‐methods study of 21 patients with cSLE aged 11 to 19 years at a Canadian ...

Association Between Sleep Disturbance and Subsequent Pain Interference in Patients With Early Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study investigated whether sleep disturbance can predict the extent to which pain interferes with daily functioning in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Data were from adults with early RA (joint symptoms ≤12 months) enrolled in the Canadian Early Arthritis Cohort between 2016 and 2023.

Convergent evidence for abnormal striatal synaptic plasticity in dystonia

Neurobiology of Disease, 2010
Dystonia is a functionally disabling movement disorder characterized by abnormal movements and postures. Although substantial recent progress has been made in identifying genetic factors, the pathophysiology of the disease remains a mystery.

Using digital phenotyping to capture depression symptom variability: detecting naturalistic variability in depression symptoms across one year using passively collected wearable movement and sleep data

Translational Psychiatry, 2023
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) presents considerable challenges to diagnosis and management due to symptom variability across time. Only recent work has highlighted the clinical implications for interrogating depression symptom variability.

Screening for Social Determinants of Health in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Point‐of‐Care Feasibility Study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Social determinants of health (SDoH) can impact outcomes but are not routinely screened for in US outpatient rheumatology clinics. This study determined the feasibility of routine point‐of‐care SDoH screening among patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and associated barriers and facilitators at the physician, care team, and ...
