Voltage gated calcium channels – molecular targets for trigeminal neuralgia
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a rare debilitating disease which is characterised by excruciating facial pain and has a higher incidence in women. Recent studies demonstrated that some TN patients present mutations in genes that encode different voltage-gated calcium channels, a class of ion channel …

A Comparison of Personality Characteristics in Trigeminal Neuralgia and Atypical Facial Pain Using
PURPOSE: Trigeminal neuralgia and atypical facial pain are representative disease entities of chronic facial pain. Most patients of these disaeses could be accompanied with psychological, emotional problems as their pain become chronic. These diseases actually have many differences in …

Accelerating development of treatments for trigeminal neuralgia using intranasal delivery and a novel behavioral screening device for rats.
… to treat because of poor targeting to the trigeminal, orofacial and brain structures involved. Intranasal administration targets these structures while minimizing systemic exposure and side effects. Lidocaine was intranasally administered to rats, and the trigeminal nerve and …

Ultrahigh Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging – Technical Development and Translational Applications
… diseases affecting nerves and vessels, such as trigeminal neuralgia, with uncertain etiology can be studied using multiple MRI modalities so that treatment planning can we more effective and patient outcomes can be improved. Ultrahigh field MRI scanners, such as those operating at 7-‐tesla …

Ultra-high Field MRI Methods for Precise Anatomical and Spectroscopic Measurements in the Brain and Application to Neurological and Neuropsychiatric Diseases
… including major depressive disorder (MDD) and trigeminal neuralgia (TN). We found a significant reduction in the right CA2/3 subfield volume of the hippocampus in MDD patients compared to healthy controls. In TN, we found significant differences in subfield volumes between patients and …

From Entry to Dysfunction: SARS-CoV-2 Neuropathogenesis in Peripheral Sensory and Autonomic Neurons and Its Implications
… symptoms observed in COVID-19, including trigeminal neuralgia, Horner syndrome, and radicular pain. These insights should inform future therapeutic strategies to mitigate the neurological sequelae of infection with SARS-CoV-2 as it transitions from a pandemic virus to endemicity.

Evaluation of the anatomical accuracy of the neuronavigation system “StealthStation” in neurosurgical operations
… device or a miniframe device. Regarding Trigeminal Neuralgia (TGN), percutaneous balloon compression (PBC) is a very reliable technique, which along with radiofrequency thermo-coagulation (RFT), they are the most effective percutaneous methods in the long term. Additionally, it is …
