Survival benefit of primary prevention implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy after myocardial infarction: does time to implant matter?
In this meta-analysis, there was scant evidence that the efficacy of primary prevention ICD therapy depends on time to implantation more than 40 days after MI. Similarly, there was no evidence that the risks of rehospitalizations or complications depend on time more than 40 days after MI.
Spinal metabotropic glutamate receptors antagonists, antinociceptive in some models of persistent pain, are not necessary for the maintenance of mechanical hyperalgesia in this rat model, which suggests that blockade of spinal metabotropic glutamate receptors may not be useful for the treatment of pain after surgery.
