Visceral pain, characterized by abdominal discomfort, originates from organs in the abdominal cavity and is a characteristic symptom in patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome, vulvodynia or interstitial cystitis. Most organs in which visceral pain originates are in contact with the
Each different gas that is used to induce a pneumoperitoneum (PP) exhibits individual effects within the peritoneal cavity. This might include adverse effects such as pain and/or inflammatory reactions. The acute effects of ozonized oxygen (O3/O2), a highly oxidative gas mixture, after being
The type of pain after laparoscopic surgery differs considerably from that seen after laparotomy. Whereas laparotomy results mostly in parietal pain, patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy complain more of visceral pain results from the stretching of intraabdominal cavity, peritoneal
For 80 years the sympathetic nervous system has been implicated in certain human pains, notably causalgia and reflex sympathetic dystrophy. This assumption has led to the accepted concept of 'sympathetic dependent' pain. In this critical review, the evidence for this assumption is assessed. It is
BACKGROUND
Patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis often report abdominal pain, which is relatively refractory to morphine. It has been considered that a new animal model is required to investigate the mechanism of abdominal pain for the development of optimal treatments for this type of
BACKGROUND
Some studies have shown a somatic nociceptive response due to the activation of transient receptor potential A1 channels (TRPA1), which is modulated by the TRPA1 antagonist HC-030031. However, a few studies report the role of TRPA1 in visceral pain. Therefore, we investigated the
Successive aqueous and alkaline extraction of the thallus of the lichenized fungus Heterodermia obscurata provided a highly branched glucomannan fraction (GM), whose chemical structure was determined. This was based on monosaccharide composition, methylation, partial acid hydrolysis, and NMR
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to demonstrate that direct measurement of hydroxyl radicals and singlet oxygen in the tail of living rats is possible. The basic level of hydroxyl radicals and singlet oxygen were measured and the effects of antioxidants on their levels were studied in the tail of
The authors present a case of a 54-year-old woman with a 3-year history of chronic pain syndrome, probably of postherapeutic origin, with diffuse segmentary dermatome characteristics, both somatic and autonomic. The former were exemplified by a constant "burning" skin pain in the representation of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy of intraoperative infusion of bupivacaine solution for the relief of pain after operative gynecologic laparoscopy.
METHODS
Prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled trial (Canadian Task Force classification I4).
METHODS
Tertiary teaching
OBJECTIVE
There is good evidence that opioids can potentiate analgesic activity of some older non-opioid analgesics (such as paracetamol or ibuprofen) but it is not known whether this also holds true for newer non-opioid analgesics that selectively inhibit cyclooxygenase 2 (coxibs). This study was
