Effectiveness of amlexanox and adcortyl for the treatment of recurrent aphthous ulcers
2015
Background Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a common condition that affects approximately 20% of the general population. The ulcers can interfere with speech and eating and cause significant pain and discomfort. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Amlexanox and Adcortyl in the treatment of aphthous ulcers. Material and Methods In this randomized double blind clinical trial with sequential patient entry, a total of 40 patients who presented with aphthous ulcers were included. Patients were received Amlexanox or Adcortyl four times daily for 7 days. Patients were evaluated for pain, lesion size, and tingling at one day, three days, five days and seven days follow-ups. The treat…
Reply: Sensory profile in primary restless legs syndrome and restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy
2010
Sir, We wish to thank the editor for giving us the opportunity to respond to this letter. We appreciated reading that Drs Gemignani and Vitetta think our study (Bachmann et al. , 2010) provides support for the differential diagnosis of primary and secondary restless legs syndrome (RLS) associated with small fibre neuropathy, when comparing the sensory profiles of these groups of patients for the first time. Dr Gemignani recently wrote ‘A general consensus on the proposed criteria for the diagnosis of small fibre neuropathy has not been established’ (Gemignani, 2010 b ). This already applies for small fibre neuropathy without complicating RLS; however, for the constellation of RLS with small…
Analgesic and physiological effects in conscious sedation with different nitrous oxide concentrations
2015
Objectives: to study the physiological changes, as well as the psychosedative and analgesic effects of nitrous oxide, in experimental conditions. Study Design: 101 dental students volunteers participated in a single nitrous oxide sedation session without dental treatment. Signs and symptoms were registered during and after the procedure. Pulse rate and hemoglobin oxygen saturation were monitored at: 100 per cent O 2 , 30 per cent N 2 O, 50 per cent N 2 O and 5 minutes after 100 per cent O 2 . A Likert scale was used to evaluate pain perception. The analgesic effects of nitrous oxide were evaluated at: 30 per cent N 2 O, 50 per cent N 2 O, and five minutes postoperatively. Results: Pulse rat…
