Pain-related impairment in daily activities after lung cancer surgery: A 1-year prospective cohort study.

Background: Persistent postsurgical pain (PPSP) following thoracic surgery affects 40%-60% of patients undergoing lung resection due to malignancies. Postoperative pain-related symptoms are common, leading to limitations in activities of daily living (ADL) and deterioration in physical function, which significantly impacts quality of life. Pain-related limitations are of interest, as postsurgical pain may present as a target for intervention to improve postoperative rehabilitation.

Cannabidiol treatment in hand osteoarthritis and psoriatic arthritis: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is increasingly used as analgesic medication although the recent International Association for the Study of Pain Presidential Task Force on cannabis and cannabinoid analgesia found a lack of trials examining CBD for pain management. This trial examines CBD as add-on analgesic therapy in patients with hand osteoarthritis or psoriatic arthritis experiencing moderate pain intensity despite therapy. Using a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design, patients received synthetic CBD 20 to 30 mg or placebo daily for 12 weeks.

What is the association between MRI and conventional radiography in measuring femoral head migration?

Background and purpose - Pelvic radiographs are traditionally used for assessing femoral head migration in residual acetabular dysplasia (RAD). Knowledge of the heightened importance of cartilaginous structures in this condition has led to increased use of MRI in assessing both osseous and cartilaginous structures of the pediatric hip. Therefore, we assessed the relationship between migration percentages (MP) found on MRI and conventional radiographs.
