Effect of mirror therapy in the treatment of phantom limb pain in amputees: A systematic review of randomized placebo‐controlled trials does not find any evidence of efficacy

European Journal of Pain, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 3-13, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and Objective Phantom limb pain (PLP) concerns >50% of amputees and has a negative impact on their rehabilitation, mental health and quality of life. Mirror therapy (MT) is a promising strategy, but its effectiveness remains controversial.

In vivo toxic and lethal cardiorespiratory effects of a synthetic quaternary ammonium salt derivative of haloperidol in mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Hematoxylin–eosin (H&E) stains of the heart, liver, lung, and kidney show acute toxicity. Abstract Background To investigate the toxicity of N‐n‐butyl haloperidol iodide (F2), a quaternary ammonium salt derivative of haloperidol, in mice for potential therapeutic purposes. Methods The acute median lethal dose (LD50) of F2 was determined using the Bliss

The immune-opioid axis in prediabetes: predicting prediabetes with insulin resistance by plasma interleukin-10 and endomorphin-2 to kappa-opioid receptors ratio

Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome, 2021
Background Prediabetes is characterized by a hemoglobin A1c of 5.7–6.4% and fasting blood glucose of 100–125 mg/dl. A high percentage of prediabetes subjects develop type 2 diabetes mellitus in the next years.

Impact of different anesthetic protocols during anesthesia for the establishment of a porcine model of acute kidney injury

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study details the adaptations required to establish a long‐term anesthetic protocol in pigs. Three protocols were evaluated, with some causing malignant hyperthermia, hypoglycemia, or hemoynamic instability. The final protocol proved effective for developing a porcine AKI model requiring adequate arterial pressure maintenance.

Rapid isolation and quantification of extracellular vesicles from suspension‐adapted human embryonic kidney cells using capillary‐channeled polymer fiber spin‐down tips

ELECTROPHORESIS, Volume 44, Issue 1-2, Page 190-202, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Exosomes, a subset of extracellular vesicles (EVs, 30–200‐nm diameter), serve as biomolecular snapshots of their cell of origin and vehicles for intercellular communication, playing roles in biological processes, including homeostasis maintenance and immune modulation.

Molecular Aspects of Opioid Receptors and Opioid Receptor Painkillers

, 2012
The unpleasant sensation of pain is experienced by all human beings at a given point in life. When pain gets severe and/or chronic it requires medical treatment. For over a thousand years, opioid agonists have been employed therapeutically to treat pain, with the first reports of such use involving the alkaloid morphine dated to the second century B.C.(

Distinct Alterations of Inflammatory Biomarkers in Cluster Headache: A Case Control Study

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Investigate the immune system's role in cluster headache by analyzing cytokines in people with cluster headache and headache‐free controls, and explore if certain cytokines could predict a specific phenotype. Methods We measured 45 cytokines in adult participants from the Danish Cluster Headache Biobank in a prospective case–control setup ...
