Duloxetine enhances the sensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer cells to EGFR inhibitors by REDD1-induced mTORC1/S6K1 suppression
Am J Cancer Res. 2024 Mar 15;14(3):1087-1100. doi: 10.62347/WMQV6643. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTAlthough epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have been effective targeted therapies for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), most advanced NSCLC inevitably develop resistance to these therapies. Combination therapies emerge as valuable approach to preventing, delaying, or overcoming disease progression. Duloxetine, an antidepressant known as a serotonin-noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, is commonly prescribed for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. In the present study, ...

Chronic Low Back Pain in Adults: Evaluation and Management
Am Fam Physician. 2024 Mar;109(3):233-244.ABSTRACTChronic low back pain, defined as lumbar pain persisting for 12 weeks or more, occurs in about 13% of U.S. adults. Patients with chronic low back pain should have a history and physical examination to identify red flags that may indicate serious conditions that warrant immediate intervention or yellow flags (i.e., psychological, environmental, and social factors) that indicate risk of disability. The examination should include an evaluation for radicular symptoms. Routine imaging is not recommended but is indicated when red flags are present, there is a neuromuscular defici...

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Prevention and Treatment
Am Fam Physician. 2024 Mar;109(3):226-232.ABSTRACTDiabetic peripheral neuropathy occurs in up to 50% of patients with diabetes mellitus and increases the risk of diabetic foot ulcers and infections. Consistent screening and clear communication are essential to decrease disparities in assessment of neuropathic symptoms and diagnosis. Physicians should address underlying risk factors such as poor glycemic control, vitamin B12 deficiency, elevated blood pressure, and obesity to reduce the likelihood of developing neuropathy. First-line drug therapy for painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy includes duloxetine, gabapentin, am...
