Possible synergic action of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and glucosamine sulfate for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis: a scoping review
2022
Abstract Background Several studies have reported that glucosamine sulfate (GS) can improve knee osteoarthritis (OA) symptomatology. In parallel, the disease-modifying effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in knee OA have also been investigated. However, limited literature has reported the combined effect of GS and NSAIDs. The aim of this scoping review is to describe the scope and volume of the literature investigating the potential benefits and synergistic effect of a combination of GS and NSAIDs in patients with knee OA. Methods PubMed and Embase were searched for studies published from inception through April 2022, evaluating the effects of the combination of GS and …
Safety and efficacy of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to reduce ileus after colorectal surgery
2019
Ileus is common after elective colorectal surgery, and is associated with increased adverse events and prolonged hospital stay. The aim was to assess the role of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for reducing ileus after surgery.A prospective multicentre cohort study was delivered by an international, student- and trainee-led collaborative group. Adult patients undergoing elective colorectal resection between January and April 2018 were included. The primary outcome was time to gastrointestinal recovery, measured using a composite measure of bowel function and tolerance to oral intake. The impact of NSAIDs was explored using Cox regression analyses, including the results of a c…

Recurrent pericarditis (RP) is a rare cause of morbidity in children. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), glucocorticoids and colchicine are the standard of care in adults. Recently, anakinra has been proven to be effective in patients with steroid-dependence and colchicine resistance.
The Effect of Acetylsalicylic Acid, as a Representative Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug, on the Activity of Myeloperoxidase
2023
Background: Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA or aspirin) is one of the world’s most widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Numerous studies have shown that the long-term use of aspirin may contribute to longer survival among patients with various types of cancer, including ovarian cancer. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ASA on myeloperoxidase (MPO), which is found at an elevated level in women with ovarian cancer, among others. Methods: The influence of different concentrations of ASA on the chlorinating and peroxidase activity of MPO was analysed. The relationship between the concentration of ASA and the degree of inhibition of MPO activity was deter…
