- Characterization of pain syndromes in patients with neuromyelitis optica(2020) VALERIO, Fernanda; APOSTOLOS-PEREIRA, Samira L.; SATO, Douglas Kazutoshi; CALLEGARO, Dagoberto; LUCATO, Leandro Tavares; BARBOZA, Victor Rosseto; SILVA, Valquiria A.; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; RODRIGUES, Antonia L. de Lima; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi deBackground Pain is common and refractory in spinal cord injury (SCI). Currently, most studies evaluated pain in male-predominant traumatic-SCI. Also, concomitant secondary pain syndromes and its temporal evolution were seldom reported. Methods We aimed to prospectively describe the main and secondary pain and its associated factors in inflammatory-SCI evaluating neuromyelitis optica (NMO) patients. In-remission NMO patients underwent neurological, imaging and autoantibody evaluations. Questionnaires detailing main and secondary pains, functional state, mood, catastrophizing, quality of life (QoL) and ""non-motor symptoms"" were used at two time points. Results Pain was present in 53 (73.6%) of the 72 patients included. At-level neuropathic pain was the most common main pain syndrome, affecting 32 subjects (60.4% of those with pain). Over 70% (n = 38) of this cohort reported two pain syndromes. Those without pain were significantly younger (26.1 +/- 12.7 y.o. in those without pain and 40.1 +/- 12.5, 37.2 +/- 11.4 y.o. in those whose main pain was neuropathic and non-neuropathic, respectively,p = .001), and no differences in the inflammatory status were observed between groups. On follow-up, one-fifth (n = 11) had a different main pain syndrome from the first visit. Pain impacted QoL as much as disability and motor strength. Conclusion Pain is a prevalent and disabling non-motor symptom in NMO-SCI. Most patients experience more than one pain syndrome which can change in time even in the absence of clinical relapse. Age of the inflammatory-SCI was a major determinant of pain. Acknowledging temporal changes and multiplicity of pain syndromes in NMO-SCI may give insights into more precise designs of clinical trials and general management of pain in SCI. Significance In this longitudinal study with NMO-related SCI, pain affected almost three-quarters of patients with NMO. Over 70% have more than one pain syndrome and at-level neuropathic pain is the most common type of pain syndrome. Patients without pain were significantly younger but had the same burden of inflammatory lesions than those with pain. During follow-up, up to one fifth of patients presented with changes in the main pain syndromes, which can occur even in the absence of clinical activity of the inflammatory disease. In this cohort, Pain affected quality of life as much as disability or motor strength.
- Balloon compression vs radiofrequency for primary trigeminal neuralgia: a randomized, controlled trial(2021) STERMAN-NETO, Hugo; FUKUDA, Cristiane Yoko; DUARTE, Kleber Paiva; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; RODRIGUES, Antonia Lilian de Lima; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; SIQUEIRA, Silvia R. D. T. de; SIQUEIRA, Jose Tadeu Tesseroli de; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi deSurgical procedures are necessary in up to 50% of trigeminal neuralgia patients. Although radiofrequency (RF) is more widely used, it is associated with high intraprocedural costs and long technical learning time. Other simpler procedures such as balloon compression (BC) require a lower training period and have significant lower costs. We evaluated the effects of BC and RF in pain control in primary trigeminal neuralgia in a randomized, double-blinded, head-to-head trial. Individuals were randomly allocated in 1 of 2 groups: BC and RF. Throughout pain, psychological and quality of life measurements were performed at baseline and after surgery. The main outcome was the worst pain in the last 24 hours (0-10) at 6 months postoperatively. After the inclusion of half of the estimated sample, a preplanned interim analysis was performed when 33 patients (62.1 = 9.4 y.) completed the study. Pain intensity (confidence interval [Cl] 95% 0.6 to 3.8, and -0.6 to 2.2, for BC and RF) did not significantly differ. Complications, interference of pain in daily life (01 95% -0.1 to 2.3 and -0.4 to 2.3, for BC and RF), neuropathic pain symptoms (01 95% 1.7 to 3.6 and 3.0 to 5.7, for BC and RF), mood (0195% 4.8 to 11.5 and 5.5 to 15.1, BC and RF, respectively), medication use, and quality of life (0195% 80.4 to 93.1 and 83.9 to 94.2, for BC and RF) were also not different. Radiofrequency presented more paresthetic symptoms than BC at 30 days after intervention. Based on these results, the study was halted due to futility because BC was not superior to RF.
- Dissecting neuropathic from poststroke pain: the white matter within(2022) LEMOS, Marcelo Delboni; FAILLENOT, Isabelle; LUCATO, Leandro Tavares; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; BARBOSA, Luciana Mendonca; ALHO, Eduardo Joaquim Lopes; CONFORTO, Adriana Bastos; RODRIGUES, Antonia Lilian de Lima; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; LISTIK, Clarice; ROSI, Jefferson; PEYRON, Roland; GARCIA-LARREA, Luis; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi dePoststroke pain (PSP) is a heterogeneous term encompassing both central neuropathic (ie, central poststroke pain [CPSP]) and nonneuropathic poststroke pain (CNNP) syndromes. Central poststroke pain is classically related to damage in the lateral brainstem, posterior thalamus, and parietoinsular areas, whereas the role of white matter connecting these structures is frequently ignored. In addition, the relationship between stroke topography and CNNP is not completely understood. In this study, we address these issues comparing stroke location in a CPSP group of 35 patients with 2 control groups: 27 patients with CNNP and 27 patients with stroke without pain. Brain MRI images were analyzed by 2 complementary approaches: an exploratory analysis using voxel-wise lesion symptom mapping, to detect significant voxels damaged in CPSP across the whole brain, and a hypothesis-driven, region of interest-based analysis, to replicate previously reported sites involved in CPSP. Odds ratio maps were also calculated to demonstrate the risk for CPSP in each damaged voxel. Our exploratory analysis showed that, besides known thalamic and parietoinsular areas, significant voxels carrying a high risk for CPSP were located in the white matter encompassing thalamoinsular connections (one-tailed threshold Z > 3.96, corrected P value <0.05, odds ratio = 39.7). These results show that the interruption of thalamocortical white matter connections is an important component of CPSP, which is in contrast with findings from nonneuropathic PSP and from strokes without pain. These data can aid in the selection of patients at risk to develop CPSP who could be candidates to pre-emptive or therapeutic interventions.
