Analysis of Risk Prediction Model for Recurrence of Trigeminal Neuralgia After Percutaneous Balloon Compression. [PDF]
Objective Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a debilitating disorder characterized by severe facial pain. While percutaneous balloon compression (PBC) is an effective surgical treatment for TN, recurrence remains a significant concern, with varying reported rates. The identification of factors that contribute to recurrence after PBC is critical for improving

Trigeminal root demyelination is sufficient to induce trigeminal neuralgia-like facial pain in adult rodents [PDF]
Background Current etiology-centered management guidelines have not brought about satisfactory outcomes for trigeminal neuralgia patients. Therefore, there is an urgent call for pathology-targeted diagnosis and treatment modalities for this intractable ...

Treatment strategy in stereotactic radiosurgery for trigeminal neuralgia, essential tremor, and coexisting intracranial tumors: The impact of biologically effective dose on clinical outcome. [PDF]
Abstract Background Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is a well‐established treatment for trigeminal neuralgia (TN) and essential tremor (ET). In patients with coexisting intracranial tumors, radiosurgery can potentially address functional and oncologic targets in a single or staged session.

Treatment Options for Trigeminal Neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia causes severe to excruciating pain that often cannot be successfully reduced with current forms of treatment. The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) defines trigeminal neuralgia as a sudden, usually unilateral ...

Exploring the correlation between GIRK proteins and pain behavior in trigeminal neuralgia in mice
Objective Trigeminal neuralgia is the most common maxillofacial pain syndrome, and its etiology has not been fully understood. In this paper, we focus on the role and expression of G protein-gated inwardly rectifying potassium channel (GIRK) protein in ...

Contemporary management of pain in cirrhosis: Toward precision therapy for pain
Abstract Chronic pain is highly prevalent in patients with cirrhosis and is associated with poor health‐related quality of life and poor functional status. However, there is limited guidance on appropriate pain management in this population, and pharmacologic treatment can be harmful, leading to adverse outcomes, such as gastrointestinal bleeding ...

The diagnostic value of pain evoked potential by electrical stimulation combined with noceciptive blink reflex in trigeminal neuralgia [PDF]
Microvascular decompression is the first choice for treating the primary trigeminal neuralgia to provide the most extended duration of pain freedom. However, in microvascular decompression, we found that this kind of operation is only suitable for ...
