Background: Peripheral neuropathy is estimated to be prevalent in up to 12% of the population, increasing to 30% in older demographics. This makes peripheral neuropathy one of the most common neurological diseases in the United States.
Objectives: This retrospective study aims to report on the efficacy and safety of peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) on the treatment of peripheral neuropathy in a commercial setting.

Background: Spinal cord stimulation can be considered in PHN patients if conservative treatment is not effective. However, the long-term pain outcomes of temporary (7-14 days) spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) in refractory PHN patients with a course of more than 3 months have not been documented.
Objectives: To investigate the efficacy of tSCS as a treatment for refractory PHN.

Purpose: Management of cervical radicular pain is complex and may be resistant to conservative treatment. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided selective cervical nerve root pulsed radiofrequency (US-SCNR PRF) treatment in patients with radicular neck pain due to cervical disc herniation who did not respond to conservative treatment. The secondary aim was to determine the efficacy of the treatment in terms of functionality, neuropathic pain, and treatment-related adverse events.

The French Society of Pediatric Neurology and the FILNEMUS network created a working group on corticosteroid therapy in children with Duchenne muscular dystrophy in order to analyze the literature review and current French practices. The aim of this work was to produce guidelines regarding treatment initiation, pre-therapeutic interventions, choice between available compounds, and treatment monitoring (dosage, duration, and discontinuation). The treatment side effects and their management are also detailed: osteoporosis, endocrinological anomaly (growth delay, weight gain, pubertal delay), cataract, arterial hypertension, behavioral disorders, management of immunosuppression and vaccines, and management of gastrointestinal and metabolic complications.

Objective: Chemotherapy-induced neuropathy (CIN) significantly impacts cancer patients, leading to functional disability, diminished quality of life, and increased healthcare costs amid the ongoing opioid crisis. Auricular point acupressure (APA), a non-invasive and non-pharmacological alternative, has shown potential for alleviating the pain, numbness, and tingling associated with CIN. This study aims to assess the efficacy of APA for CIN symptoms and physical function and to examine the mechanisms underlying APA's effects on CIN.

Purpose: To describe the clinical outcomes beyond pain relief of high-frequency spinal cord stimulation at 10 kHz (10 kHz SCS) in a patient with cervical myelopathy and drug-resistant chronic neuropathic pain with spastic tetraparesis.
Methods: A patient with C3-C6 myelomalacia and spastic tetraparesis previously treated with decompressive laminectomy underwent implantation of 10 kHz SCS for pain management through a trial procedure followed by permanent implantation. Due to the presence of epidural fibrotic scar tissue in the area of the previous C3-C6 laminectomy, the leads could not be implanted at the cervical level; therefore, the leads were positioned at the thoracic level.

Background: Because of the unclear pathophysiology and the lack of consensus on the gold standard treatment of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), management requires a multidisciplinary approach, with the use of various treatment modalities. Nonetheless, no studies have ever been conducted to uncover the potential of mecobalamin as a treatment for CRPS type 1. Hence, the aim of this clinical trial was to evaluate the effects of mecobalamin on the functional outcomes of patients with CRPS type 1 of the foot and ankle, the total amount of pregabalin ingested, and the duration of pregabalin use in each patient.

» Gunshot injuries to the upper extremity (UE) have high likelihood for causing peripheral nerve injury secondary to the high density of vital structures. Roughly one-fourth of patients sustaining a gunshot wound (GSW) to the UE incur a nerve injury. Of these nerve injuries, just over half are neurapraxic.

Background: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an incurable neuromuscular disease leading to progressive skeletal muscle weakness and fatigue. Cell transplantation in murine models has shown promise in supplementing the lack of the dystrophin protein in DMD muscles. However, the establishment of novel, long-term, relevant methods is needed to assess its efficiency on the DMD motor function.

Herpes zoster (HZ) is typically characterized by a burning, stabbing pain, hyperalgesia, and allodynia. In some patients, despite the lesions resolving, the pain persists and becomes chronic. If the pain continues for more than 6 months after the onset of the pain phase, this condition is called postherpetic neuralgia (PHN).
