Does peripheral morphine administration block the development of hyperalgesia and allodynia after bone damage in the rat?
This study shows that local application of a low dose of morphine effectively blocks the development of hyperalgesia and allodynia in a rat model of bone damage through mu-opioid receptor action. These findings provide further evidence that local application of morphine at the time of orthopedic surgery, bone graft, or bone marrow harvesting may reduce the amount of postoperative pain.
As the level of myopia increased, the thickness of the fovea also increased, while the thickness of the peripapillary RNFL decreased. Therefore, when interpreting OCT results in the clinic, careful consideration should be given to various changes associated with myopia.
