Internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm after neck manipulation in a patient with Eagle syndrome
Key Clinical MessageContraindications of spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) have been proposed, which mandate rigorous control for its safe practice when manipulating the upper spine. Here, we report a vascular complication of Neck Manipulation in Eagle syndrome (ES) patient.AbstractSMT is used to treat musculoskeletal conditions such as back pain and neck pain by applying force to the spinal joints. Here, we report a rare but devastating complication of SMT, where a young male patient, 22 years old, with ES, had a large pseudoaneurysm from the internal carotid artery (ICA) after SMT from an unlicensed practitioner, trea...

Adverse Childhood Experiences and Chronic Low Back Pain In Adulthood: The Role of Emotion Regulation
Chronic low back pain (cLBP) is characterized by biopsychosocial determinants that collectively result in substantial burden at the individual, community, and healthcare system levels. A growing body of literature suggests that childhood adversity is longitudinally associated with the development and maintenance of various chronic pain conditions in adulthood. Little research has investigated the psychological processes that might underlie the association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and cLBP. (Source: The Journal of Pain)

Approach for contact medical device development via integrated testing, skeletal muscle modeling, and finite element analysis
J Mech Behav Biomed Mater. 2024 Apr 16;155:106541. doi: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2024.106541. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDevelopment of novel medical devices for the treatment of musculoskeletal pain associated with neuro-muscular trigger points requires a model for relating the mechanical responses of in vivo biological tissues to applied palliative physical pressures and a method to design treatments for optimal effects. It is reasonable to hypothesize that the efficacy of therapeutic treatment is proportional to the maximum tensile strain at trigger point locations. This work presents modeling of the mechanical behavior of bi...

Altered Cortical Thickness and Structural Covariance Networks in Chronic Low Back Pain
CONCLUSIONS: From the regional cortical thickness to the complex brain network level, our study demonstrated changes in the cortical thickness and topological properties of the SCNs in patients with CLBP, thus aiding in a better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of CLBP.PMID:38679110 | DOI:10.1016/j.brainresbull.2024.110968 (Source: Brain Research)

Estradiol modulates the role of the spinal α < sub > 6 < /sub > -subunit containing GABA < sub > A < /sub > receptors in female rats with neuropathic pain
Eur J Pharmacol. 2024 Apr 26:176616. doi: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176616. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying sex differences in the role of spinal α6-subunit containing GABAA (α6GABAA) receptors in rats with neuropathic pain. Intrathecal 2,5-dihydro-7-methoxy-2-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3H-pyrazolo [4,3-c] quinoline-3-one (PZ-II-029, positive allosteric modulator of α6GABAA receptors) reduced tactile allodynia in female but not in male rats with neuropathic pain. PZ-II-029 was also more effective in females than males in inflammatory and nociplastic pain. Ovariecto...
