A large quantity of research concerning issues of patient compliance with medications has
been produced in recent years. The assumption in much of this work is that patients have little …

Background. We assessed mirror visual feedback (MVF) to test the hypothesis that incongruence
between motor output and sensory input produces complex regional pain syndrome (…

Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) catalyses the reduction of the therapeutic organic nitrate,
nitroglycerin (glyceryl trinitrate, GTN), as well as inorganic nitrate and nitrite, to nitric oxide (NO…

Objectives. To assess the efficacy of a cannabis-based medicine (CBM) in the treatment of
pain due to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods. We compared a CBM (Sativex) with placebo …

Xanthine oxidase (XO) was shown to catalyze the reduction of nitrite to nitric oxide (NO), under
anaerobic conditions, in the presence of either NADH or xanthine as reducing substrate. …

Previous studies suggesting increased reactive oxygen metabolite (ROM) production in
inflammatory bowel disease have been restricted to peripheral blood and isolated intestinal …

Species such as superoxide radical (O 2 − ), hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ), hydroxyl radical
( · OH), and hypochlorous acid (HOC1) can be formed in vivo, eg, by activated phagocytic …

In spite of pain in the CRPS limb, clinical observations show patients pay little attention to,
and fail to care for, their affected limb as if it were not part of their body. Literature describes …

Nitric oxide (NO) synthesis is now well-known to result from the oxidation of L-arginine by a
family of NO synthases (NOS). However, under hypoxic conditions this mechanism of NO …

OBJECTIVES--To estimate the extent of genomic DNA damage and killing of lymphocytes
by reactive oxygen intermediates in autoimmune diseases. METHODS--8-Oxo-7-…
