Closed-Loop Deep Brain Stimulation for Refractory Chronic Pain
Chronic pain affects 1 in 4 US adults, and many cases are resistant to almost any treatment. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) holds promise as a new option for patients suffering from treatment-resistant chronic pain, but traditional approaches target only brain regions involved in one aspect of the pain experience and …
Low Dose Naltrexone for Pain in Patients With HIV
The increased life expectancy of Patients Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) has increased the need for therapies for chronic conditions, such as chronic pain. Pain in the HIV population is often refractory and ends up being treated with chronic opioids, which are associated with adverse effects, including hyperalgesia, constipation, and risk …
Exercise in Patients With Hypermobile Joints and Knee Pain
Pain associated with knee joint hypermobility is common in the adult population, but evidence on treatment is sparse. This study investigates if high-load resistance training is superior to usual care in improving activity-related pain in young patients (18-45 years) with hypermobile joints and knee pain.
The Impact of Psilocybin on Pain in Fibromyalgia Patients
Rationale: Recent evidence shows that Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD), even when administered in low, non-hallucinogenic doses, can produce analgesic effects and improve pain tolerance in a sample of healthy volunteers. Such results complement what was already observed with other serotonergic psychedelics such as psilocybin: survey studies and case series indicate …
2% Lidocaine Gel in Reducing Postoperative Pain Following Haemorrhoidectomy
The study is a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial evaluating the efficacy of 2% lidocaine gel in reducing postoperative pain and analgesic consumption after haemorrhoidectomy. 222 patients undergoing Ferguson haemorrhoidectomy will be randomly assigned to receive either 2% lidocaine gel or a non-anaesthetic lubricant gel control. Pain scores using a visual …

This randomized pragmatic study will compare interventions with different degrees of support to determine if self-management videos plus multimodal personalized support is more effective than self-management …
Study of Lipid Mediators in Chronic Postoperative Pain - LICP
This interventional prospective study aims firstly to investigate variations in lipid levels in blood samples and their potential relationship with the duration and/or intensity of post-operative pain. Secondly, it aims to investigate the activation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and neutrophils in patient blood samples. The study will enrol women …
