Whether morphine used in human cancer surgery would exert tumor-promoting effects is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of morphine dose on cancer prognosis after colorectal cancer (CRC) resection.In a retrospective study, 1248 patients with stage I through IV CRC undergoing
BACKGROUND
Dyspnea represents a very frequent and distressing symptom in patients with advanced cancer. This study was undertaken to assess the efficacy of morphine on dyspnea and its safety for ventilatory function in elderly advanced cancer patients.
METHODS
Nine elderly patients with dyspnea due
The mainstay of dyspnea palliation remains altering its central perception. Morphine is the main drug and anxiolytics have a less established role. This trial assessed the role of midazolam as adjunct therapy to morphine in the alleviation of severe dyspnea perception in terminally ill cancer
OBJECTIVE
To compare analgesia and adverse effects during oral morphine and oxycodone and transdermal fentanyl and buprenorphine administration in cancer patients with pain.
METHODS
Cancer patients treated at home and in outpatient clinics with severe pain (numerical rating scale score 6-10) fail to
To compare effects of oral morphine and oxycodone and transdermal fentanyl and buprenorphine on quality of life (QoL) of cancer patients with severe pain.Cancer patients with severe pain (NRS 6-10) treated at home and in outpatient clinics who failed to Cancer pain treatment following the World Health Organization guidelines is effective and feasible. However, the evidence supporting the use of opioids for mild to moderate pain on the second step of the analgesic ladder is widely discussed. The present evaluation compares the efficacy and safety of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and the safety of pregabalin (PGB)-morphine combination for the treatment of neuropathic cancer pain (NCP).
METHODS
In this double-blind, randomized, placebo (PL)-controlled crossover study, 40 cancer patients with severe NCP were randomized into two groups (20 per
The effect of morphine on tumor growth of EL-4 leukemia in C57BL/6 mice and of Sarcoma 180 carcinoma in ddY mice was studied. Local subcutaneous tumor growth was enhanced by morphine (10 mg/kg, s.c.) given daily for 10d. This effect was inhibited by preadministration of the opioid antagonist
Noncoding polymorphisms of the GTP cyclohydrolase gene (GCH1) reduce the risk for chronic pain in humans suggesting GCH1 inhibitors as analgesics. We assessed the effects of the GCH1 inhibitor diaminohydroxypyrimidine (DAHP) on nociception and inflammation in a mouse melanoma and a sarcoma cancer
This study aimed to investigate factors associated with analgesic use of morphine in end-of-life care. French general practitioners (GPs) and oncologists (N = 719) were asked whether they would prescribe morphine as first-line therapy to patients with terminal lung cancer suffering from dyspnea
BACKGROUND
Bone cancer pain has a major impact on the quality of life of cancer patients but is difficult to treat. Therefore, development of a novel strategy for bone cancer pain is needed for improvement of the patient quality of life. In this study, we examined the analgesic effects of the
The purpose of this double-blind crossover study was to determine whether a sustained-release morphine sulfate (SRMS) tablet given orally every 12 hours could adequately replace immediate-release morphine sulfate solution (IRMS) given orally every 4 hours in hospitalized patients with chronic pain
OBJECTIVE
This study was conducted to compare the relative analgesic efficacy and safety of an every-4-hour immediate-release oral morphine (IRM) solution with that of an every-12-hour sustained-release oral morphine (SRM) formulation.
METHODS
This was a double-blind, placebo-blinded, crossover
Dyspnoea is one of the commonest symptoms of lung cancer. Opioids can reduce dyspnoea. This study investigates acupuncture for relief of breathlessness in lung cancer.
We performed a single-centre, randomised phase II study of 173 patients with non-small cell lung cancer or mesothelioma with
Proglumide, a cholecystokinin (CCK) antagonist, has been shown to have agonist effects at extremely low doses on both endogenous and exogenous opioid systems. To determine the effectiveness and the side effects of proglumide as an opioid agonist, a double-blind crossover study was conducted in 60
