Background: Pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) is increasingly used in clinical practice, especially in neuropathic pain disorders. Although PRF is not new to clinical use, there are significant gaps in knowledge regarding its effectiveness.
Objectives: The current study was conducted to evaluate the effect of duration of application of PRF on its analgesic efficacy in improvement of neuropathic pain.
Objectives: To evaluate and compare the relative contribution of different therapeutic agents for renoprotection against complete unilateral ureteric obstruction (UUO), using a rabbit model sampled at different times.
Materials And Methods: Eighty-four male New Zealand White rabbits were divided into seven groups of 12 rabbits; a sham group, a control (left UUO + no medication) or left UUO and treated with either enalapril, losartan, verapamil, l-arginine or antioxidant (vitamin E and selenium mixture). Rabbits in the control and treated groups were subjected to 3, 10 and 21 days of complete ureteric ligation and then killed humanely.
