The optimum doses of carprofen, flunixin, ketoprofen and sodium salicylate for the treatment of inflammatory pain were determined in domestic fowl using the microcrystalline sodium urate model of articular pain. The response criteria were the changes in pain-related behaviour over 60 min commencing 1 h after an intra-articular injection of sodium urate and an intramuscular injection of a range of doses of each of the drugs. The minimum effective doses for carprofen, flunixin and ketoprofen, respectively, were 30, 3 and 12 mg kg(-1). The minimum dose for sodium salicylate ranged from 100 to 200 mg kg(-1) and did not fully restore normal behaviour.

There is currently no cure or disease-modifying treatment for post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). This study aims to assess the efficacy of dimethyl fumarate (DMF), a US-FDA approved drug for multiple sclerosis, as a treatment for PTOA. PTOA was induced in male Lewis rats by medial meniscal transection (MMT) surgery, and DMF was intra-articularly administered once, one week following surgery.

Background: Managing pain during dental procedures is crucial, particularly for children, as pain can induce anxiety. Local anesthesia is the most anxiety-inducing procedure in pediatric patients. Consequently, this study aimed to assess and compare the pain-related behaviors and perceptions associated with two anesthesia techniques for children: traditional local anesthesia and intraosseous local anesthesia administered via the QuickSleeper 5 system.

A child's concept of pain comprises their understanding of what pain is, the purpose of pain, and biological processes underpinning pain. The concept of pain can influence pain experiences, pain beliefs, and pain-related behaviour. This study aimed to assess the concept of pain among children attending primary schools in Gqeberha in the Eastern Cape of South Africa.

About one out of two diabetic patients develop diabetic neuropathy (DN), of these 20% experience neuropathic pain (NP) leading to individual, social, and health-economic burden. Risk factors for NP are largely unknown; however, premature aging was recently associated with several chronic pain disorders. DNA methylation-based biological age (DNAm) is associated with disease risk, morbidity, and mortality in different clinical settings.

Millions of Americans live with chronic inflammatory pain conditions, and the prevalence of these conditions increases with age and is higher in females. Still, it is poorly understood how sex, age and peripheral gene expression affect the trajectory of chronic inflammatory pain conditions. We used the inflammatory agent, Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA), to systematically test sex and age effects on mechanical and thermal sensitivity in adolescent and adult male and female Wistar rats over 3 weeks (Experiment 1 [onset]) or 11 weeks (Experiment 2 [recovery]).
