Journal ArticleDOI

The visual analogue pain intensity scale: what is moderate pain in millimetres?

TL;DR: The results indicate that if a patient records a baseline VAS score in excess of 30 mm they would probably have recorded at least moderate pain on a 4‐point categorical scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

Opioids in chronic non-cancer pain: systematic review of efficacy and safety

TL;DR: The short‐term efficacy of opioids was good in both neuropathic and musculoskeletal pain conditions, however, only a minority of patients in these studies went on to long‐term management with opioids, and conclusions concerning problems such as tolerance and addiction are not allowed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical activity and exercise for chronic pain in adults: an overview of Cochrane Reviews.

TL;DR: The quality of evidence was low due to participant numbers, length of intervention and follow‐up, and the evidence for any adverse effects or harm associated with physical activity and exercise interventions, though even these statistically significant results had only small‐to‐moderate effect sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pregabalin for acute and chronic pain in adults

TL;DR: Efficacy was demonstrated for dichotomous outcomes equating to moderate or substantial pain relief, alongside lower rates for lack of efficacy discontinuations with increasing dose, in patients with postherpetic neuralgia and painful diabetic neuropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cannabinoids for control of chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting: quantitative systematic review.

TL;DR: The cannabinoids tested in these trials may be useful as mood enhancing adjuvants for controlling chemotherapy related sickness and potentially serious adverse effects, even when taken short term orally or intramuscularly are likely to limit their widespread use.
