内容説明

This volume is devoted to the most challenging type of pain encountered in clinical practice - pain that is due, not to an identifiable noxious stimulus, but to a dysfunction of the nociceptive system, i.e. an organic, functional, or pharmacologically induced disturbance of the neural machinery responsible for pain transmission and control. Leading international investigators examine the functions and dysfunctions of the neural mechanisms involved in nociception and present new insights into the pathophysiology, clinical features, and therapy of pain syndromes resulting from disturbances in these mechanisms, such as phantom limb pain, other deafferentation pain syndromes, idiopathic migraine and cluster headaches, primary fibromyalgia, and central panalgia.

  • action of antibiotics in two animal models of pain
  • physiological factors influence substance-P evoked flare in human skin
  • capsaicin-sensitive afferents and pain arising from the urinary bladder
  • physiological analgesia is obtainable by potentiating presynaptic mechanisms involved in central pain control. Part 2 Clinical profiles: profiles of CNS neuropeptides in chronic pain of different nature
