Journal ArticleDOI

A new and sensitive method for measuring thermal nociception in cutaneous hyperalgesia.

TL;DR: Both the thermal method and the Randall‐Selitto mechanical method detected dose‐related hyperalgesia and its blockade by either morphine or indomethacin, but the Thermal method showed greater bioassay sensitivity and allowed for the measurement of other behavioral parameters in addition to the nociceptive threshold.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel behavioral model of neuropathic pain disorders produced in rats by partial sciatic nerve injury

TL;DR: This preparation may serve as a model for syndromes of the causalgiform variety that are triggered by partial nerve injury and maintained by sympathetic activity, and it is suggested that these abnormalities critically depend on the sympathetic outflow.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pain measurement: an overview

TL;DR: The practice and theoretical basis of pain measurement is reviewed and critically examined in the areas of animal research, human subjects laboratory investigation and clinical study, and subjective report procedures are evaluated in human laboratory and clinical areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of desipramine, amitriptyline, and fluoxetine on pain in diabetic neuropathy.

TL;DR: Desipramine relieves pain caused by diabetic neuropathy with efficacy similar to that of amitriptyline, offering an alternative for patients unable to tolerate the latter and blockade of norepinephrine reuptake is likely to mediate the analgesic effect of these antidepressant drugs in diabetic Neuropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Amitriptyline relieves diabetic neuropathy pain in patients with normal or depressed mood

TL;DR: It is concluded that amitriptyline relieves pain in diabetic neuropathy; this effect is independent of mood elevation.
