The role of manual acupuncture and morphine administration on the modulation of capsaicin-induced edema in rat paw. A blind controlled study.

Neurogenic inflammation, includes vasodilation, the increase of vasal permeability and edema due to the release of neuromediators from nerve endings.

A modulation of the release of neurotransmitters, from nerve endings and neurogenic inflammation related phenomena, was observed with the administration of drugs or of neurotransmitters inhibiting the release of neuropeptides from capsaicin-sensible neurons, among which morphine and other endogenous agonist opioids seem to be effective.

Effects of deep vs. superficial stimulation of acupuncture on capsaicin-induced edema. A blind controlled study in rats.

The modality of needle stimulation in acupuncture is part of the concept of the ìintensityî of the stimulation, a variable indicating the ìdosageî of the treatment administered.

In this study we intend to compare the effect of superficial and deep needle insertion in the leg ipsilateral or contralateral to the paw treated with capsaicin. Leggi tutto...

Analgesic effect of subcutaneous administration of oxygen-ozone. A blind study in the rat on the modulation of the capsaicin-induced edema.

The Authors have explored a new complementary approach, employed in the last 40 years for, among other uses, medical purposes: oxygen-ozone therapy. Anecdotal works have highlighted interesting results obtained in disk herniation with infiltration of paravertebral muscles with oxygen-ozone.

To verify the existence of a nociceptive effect and investigate a possible mechanism of action, an experimental model of edema induction by subcutaneous capsaicin injection in the rat paw was employed. Leggi tutto...

Biochemical and morphological changes in Escherichia coli irradiated by coherent and non-coherent 632.8 nm light.

Irradiation of Escherichia coli cells with either coherent or non-coherent 632.8 nm light (4 J cm-2) causes a transient acceleration of cell proliferation, which is maximal about 60 min after the end of the phototreatment.

The stimulatory effect is dose dependent and is especially evident in the case of defective E. coli strains which are in the logarithmic phase of growth, while it becomes less important when cells are exposed to non-coherent 600-700 nm light. Leggi tutto...

Vagal stimulation and exogenous acetylcholine in isolated rat stomach: calcitonin effect on contractile activity.

Calcitonin induces contraction in the vascular and extravascular smooth muscle and facilitates the transmission of the excitation in somatic motor nerve endings. These actions are Ca2(+)-dependent.

The calcitonin effect on autonomic nerve endings has been studied here by testing influence of calcitonin on the contractile responses of the isolated rat stomach. The organ was submitted to electrical vagal stimulation or, after denervation, to exogenous acetylcholine. Leggi tutto...

Postoperative pain treated by intravenous L-tryptophan: a double-blind study versus placebo in cholecystectomized patients.

The effectiveness of intravenous administration (i.v.) of L-tryptophan, which is the precursor of cerebral serotonin, was verified in the treatment of postoperative pain. Leggi tutto...

Diode laser in cervical myofascial pain: a double-blind study versus placebo.

We present a double-blind trial in which a pulsed infrared beam was compared with a placebo in the treatment of myofascial pain in the cervical region.

The patients were submitted to 12 sessions on alternate days to a total energy dose of 5 J each. At each session, the four most painful muscular trigger points and five bilateral homometameric acupuncture points were irradiated.

Those in the placebo group submitted to the same number of sessions following an identical procedure, the only difference being that the laser apparatus was nonoperational. Leggi tutto...

[3H] imipramine binding sites are decreased in platelets of chronic pain patients.

Tritiated imipramine binding to whole platelets was measured in sixteen chronic pain patients not suffering from major depression and in a control group.

Maximum binding was significantly lower in chronic pain patients than in the control group, whereas the binding affinity was not significantly different.

The effect of benzodiazepines administration on auricular symptomatological evidence.

The aim of this study is to verify the response of auricular skin to interoceptive stimuli in two groups of patients suffering from a gastroenteral pathology.

Patients were submitted to a complete examination of auricle, in order to detect morphological alterations and painful points, and to a diagnostic digestive endoscopy.

A group of patients took benzodiazepines at the moment of auricular examination; the second group did not take any drug. Leggi tutto...
