As part of the presented research, thirteen new aminoalkanol derivatives were designed and obtained by chemical synthesis. In vivo studies (mice, i.p.) showed anticonvulsant activity (MES) of nine compounds, and in the case of one compound (R,S-trans-2-((2-(2,3,5-trimethylphenoxy)ethyl)amino)cyclohexan-1-ol, 4) both anticonvulsant (ED MES = 15.67 mg/kg, TD rotarod = 78.30 mg.kg, PI = 5.00) and analgesic activity (OXA-induced neuropathic pain, active at 15 mg/kg). For selected active compounds additional in vitro studies have been performed, including receptor studies (5-HT), evaluation of antioxidant activity (DPPH assay), metabolism studies as well as safety panel (mutagenicity, safety in relation to the gastrointestinal flora, cytotoxicity towards astrocytes as well as impact on their proliferation and cell cycle).

Background: Full-endoscopic microvascular decompression (fE-MVD) is an emerging treatment option for trigeminal neuralgia (TN). However, the risk factors associated with postoperative recurrence of TN after fE-MVD procedure remain controversial. The aim of the present study was to summarize the surgical technique of fE-MVD for the treatment of TN and to develop a predictive model for recurrence at 1 year postoperatively based on independent risk factors.

Background: Fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) is a genetic disorder, marked by bone lesions, often affecting the craniofacial skeleton. Pain is a prevalent yet heterogeneous symptom reported by patients with craniofacial FD. Effective treatments are currently lacking, posing a significant clinical challenge to patient care.

Aims: Chronic pain is a critical public health issue that severely impacts quality of life and poses significant treatment challenges, particularly due to the risk of adverse effects associated with pharmacological therapies. The search for effective non-invasive treatment alternatives has become increasingly relevant. Low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) has been identified as an effective non-invasive strategy for pain management, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

Background: People with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) have a 20-fold higher risk of developing trigeminal neuralgia compared to the general population. Treating trigeminal neuralgia in these patients is particularly challenging due to reduced tolerance and increased side effects from medications. When no neurovascular conflict exist, percutaneous treatments are usually the first option after drug therapy.

Objectives: To assess the prevalence of comorbidities and management of cardiovascular risk factors according to established guidelines for patients with hand osteoarthritis.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted that included 110 hand osteoarthritis patients. The clinical parameters (pain, function, grip strength, quality of life, sarcopenia, and comorbidities) were assessed along with cardiovascular (CV) risk factors (blood pressure, body mass index, and dyslipidaemia).
