The Switch/Sugar non-fermenting (SWI/SNF) nucleosome remodeling complexes are essential for normal hematopoiesis. The Brg1/Brm associated factor (BAF) is a form of mammalian SWI/SNF that is distinguished by the presence of either ARID1A or ARID1B protein. In this study, we used hematopoietic specific Cre mouse models to assess the function of Arid1b in blood development.

Design: Systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Data Sources: PubMed (Medline), the Cochrane library and Web of Science were systematically searched.
Objective: Opioid-induced hyperalgesia, a paradoxical increase in pain sensitivity associated with ongoing opioid use, may worsen the postoperative pain experience. This pilot study examined the effect of chronic opioid use on pain responses in patients undergoing a standardized dental surgery.
Methods: Experimental and subjective pain responses were compared prior to and immediately following planned multiple tooth extractions between patients with chronic pain on opioid therapy (≥30 mg morphine equivalents/d) and opioid-naïve patients without chronic pain matched on sex, race, age, and degree of surgical trauma.
