Comparison of Characteristics of Neuropathic and Non-neuropathic Pruritus to Develop a Tool for the Diagnosis of Neuropathic Pruritus: The NP5 [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2019
The diagnosis of neuropathic pruritus (NP) may be difficult. The aim of this study was to compare the characteristics of both neuropathic pruritus and non-neuropathic pruritus (NNP) in order to elaborate a tool to help the diagnosis of NP without ...

Neuropathic Itch [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2020
Neurologic insults as varied as inflammation, stroke, and fibromyalgia elicit neuropathic pain and itch. Noxious sensation results when aberrantly increased afferent signaling reaches percept-forming cortical neurons and can occur due to increased sensory signaling, decreased inhibitory signaling, or a combination of both processes.

The neuropathic urethra [PDF]

open access: yesSpinal Cord, 1980
The hypothesis is advanced that the functional urethral obstruction found in neuropathic states is due, in part at least, to urethral supersensitivity following sympathetic decentralisation. A simple postural test for this condition is described. By its use it has been shown that urethral denervation occurs not only in disorders of the central nervous ...

Neuropathic Pain in the Elderly [PDF]

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Neuropathic pain due to a lesion or a disease of the somatosensory system often affects older people presenting several comorbidities. Moreover, elderly patients are often poly-medicated, hospitalized and treated in a nursing home with a growing risk of drug interaction and recurrent hospitalization. Neuropathic pain in the elderly has to be managed by

Transient receptor potential channel polymorphisms are associated with the somatosensory function in neuropathic pain patients. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Transient receptor potential channels are important mediators of thermal and mechanical stimuli and play an important role in neuropathic pain. The contribution of hereditary variants in the genes of transient receptor potential channels to neuropathic ...

Neuropathic pain is constitutively suppressed in early life by anti-inflammatory neuroimmune regulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Peripheral nerve injury can trigger neuropathic pain in adults but not in infants; indeed, for unknown reasons, neuropathic pain is rare before adolescence. We show here that the absence of neuropathic pain response in infant male rats and mice following

Neuropathic itch

open access: yesPain, 2019
Abstract Neuropathic itch is clinically important but has received much less attention as compared to neuropathic pain. In the past decade, itch-specific pathways have been characterized on a cellular and molecular level, but their exact role in the pathophysiology of neuropathic itch is still unclear.

A genome-wide association study provides evidence of sex-specific involvement of Chr1p35.1 (ZSCAN20-TLR12P) and Chr8p23.1 (HMGB1P46) with diabetic neuropathic pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Neuropathic pain is defined as pain arising as a direct consequence of a lesion or a disease affecting the somatosensory system and it affects around 1 in 4 diabetic patients in the UK.
