A transient inflammatory response contributes to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity in mice
Abstract Objectives Peripheral neuropathy is a relevant dose‐limiting adverse event that can affect up to 90% of oncologic patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin treatment. The severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or even premature cessation of chemotherapy.

Pain threshold is reduced in depression [PDF]
Pain and depression may share common neurochemical substrates, therefore the study of pain sensation in depression might be valuable in the investigation of the pathophysiology of depression itself. In order to investigate the sensation of pain in depression, we measured pain threshold and sensory threshold by means of a dental tester, comparing a ...

Bell’s Palsy—Retroauricular Pain Threshold [PDF]
Background and objectives: Non-motor symptoms in the form of increased sensitivity are often associated with the onset of idiopathic Bell’s palsy (IBP). The aims were to determine whether the pain threshold in the retroauricular regions (RAR) in IBP patients and the time of its occurrence is related to IBP severity. Materials and Methods: The study was
