The objective of this study was to establish in healthy volunteers the maximally tolerated multiple dose (MTMD) of the ionotropic glutamate receptor 5 antagonist LY545694 (part A), and to investigate whether that dose had analgesic or antihyperalgesic effects in the brief thermal stimulation (BTS) pain model (Part B). Part A was a double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 3 groups of 10 healthy men...
Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a common complication after herpes zoster (HZ). Subjects who completed a longitudinal observational 6-month study (4 visits) of the natural history of HZ were recontacted for 2 additional follow-up visits that included pain and sensory symptom assessment, quantitative sensory testing, capsaicin response test, and 3-mm punch skin biopsies in HZ-affected, mirror-image,...
Introduction:Zoster‐associated limb paresis is an uncommon complication of herpes zoster (HZ) and one whose precise pathophysiologic mechanism is poorly understood. Occasionally, the paresis results from a zoster‐associated mononeuropathy (ZAM).
Methods:Mayo Clinic records between 1996 and 2010 were reviewed for patients with ZAM whose clinical, electrophysiologic, and radiographic features were...
As part of a comprehensive study of the natural history of herpes zoster (HZ), 57 of 94 subjects in a cohort at elevated risk for post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) consented to collection of 3-mm skin punch biopsies from affected, mirror-image, and distant control skin at baseline and followup visits. As cutaneous innervation is reduced in longstanding severe PHN, we tested the hypothesis that development...
