Article Synopsis
- * Conducted over four years, the research included 53 CRPS patients, mainly with long-term symptoms, and analyzed their serum sIL-2R levels alongside a CRPS severity score.
- * Results showed no significant correlation between serum sIL-2R levels and CRPS severity, indicating it may not be a useful biomarker for long-standing cases, and suggesting further studies on sIL-2R levels from early to persistent CRPS.
Article Synopsis
- Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a tough condition that causes long-lasting pain in arms or legs, and some people might feel better after getting esketamine treatment.
- This study compares two ways to give esketamine: one method is a long, continuous treatment in a hospital, and the other is shorter treatments done every two weeks at home.
- The goal is to see if the home treatment works just as well as the hospital one, while also checking how safe and cost-effective these treatments are for patients.
Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a debilitating painful condition of a distal extremity that can develop after tissue damage. CRPS is thought to be a multimechanism syndrome and ideally the most prominent mechanism(s) should be targeted by drugs in an individually tailored manner. This review gives an overview of the action and evidence of current and future pharmacotherapeutic options for CRPS.

Although a minority view, it is important to understand the arguments presented in these articles. We conducted a systematic literature search to evaluate the methodological quality of articles that claim CRPS does not exist.
