Article Synopsis
  • This manuscript reviews new clinical and interventional strategies for managing chronic pain, focusing on both nociceptive and neuropathic pain types.
  • Pain is categorized into different types: neuropathic pain (resulting from nerve issues), nociceptive pain (from tissue injury), and chronic pain (lasting longer than 6 months).
  • Emerging treatments, including cannabinoids, stem cells, and gene therapy, show promise, but more research is needed to establish effective best practices for clinicians.

Objective In this study, we aimed to explore the association of demographic characteristics and comorbidities with the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in cancer inpatients, as well as to delineate the mortality risk in cancer inpatients with VTE. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis based on the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) 2012-2014, involving 339,395 inpatients with a primary diagnosis of cancer subdivided into cohorts without VTE (n=331,695) and with VTE (n=7,700). We used a binomial logistic regression model to evaluate the odds ratio (OR) of demographics, comorbidities, and in-hospital mortality rate with respect to cancer inpatients with VTE.
