Effects of antipyretic analgesic drugs on pain and transforming growth factor TGF-β1 of patients with neuropathic pain
Objective:To observe the effects of antipyretic an algesic drugs(NSAIDs)on pain and transforming growth factor TGF-β1of patients with neuropathic pain by comparing with patients who were not administered NSAIDs to discuss the function of TGF-β1 in neuropathic pain.Methods:Patients clinically diagnosed at least by two pain physicians as neuropathic pain for more than 3 months
with the written consent to participate the clinical survey and to donate the blood for immune function test either in pain outpatient or pain ward in West China Hospital
from the year 2006 to 2007 were recruited.100mm visual analogue score was used to assess the extent of pain.Venous blood samples were detected for cytokine lectin TGF-β1.Results:There were no significant difference of age
sex or disease course between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference of pain score and TGF-β1 between patients with neuropathic pain administered NSAIDs drugs and those administered no NSAIDs drugs(P >0.05).TGF-β1 of patients with PHN
trigeminal and glossopharyngeal neuralgia either administered NSAIDs drugs or not were significantly lower than patients with Cervical spondylosis and lumbar disc herniation either administered NSAIDs drugs or not respectively(P<0.05).Conclusions:There are no significant effects of NSAIDs on pain and TGF-β1of patients with neuropathic pain.The pathogenesis of cervical spondylosis and lumbar disc herniation may associated with TGF-β1.
