However, Abstract: Opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH) is most broadly recent evidence suggests that opioid medications may also defined as a state of nociceptive sensitization caused by exposure be useful for the treatment of chronic noncancer pain, at to opioids. The state is characterized by a paradoxical response least in the short term.3–14 whereby a patient receiving opioids for the treatment of pain Perhaps because of this new evidence, opioid may actually become more sensitive to certain painful stimuli. medications have been increasingly prescribed by primary The type of pain experienced may or may not be different from care physicians and other patient care providers for the original underlying painful condition.

Opioid Tolerance in Methadone Maintenance Treatment: Comparison
Gutwinski et al. Harm Reduction Journal (2016) 13:7 DOI 10.1186/s12954-016-0095-0 RESEARCH Open Access Opioid tolerance in methadone maintenance treatment: comparison of methadone and levomethadone in long-term treatment Stefan Gutwinski*, Nikola Schoofs, Heiner Stuke, Thomas G. Riemer, Corinde E. Wiers and Felix Bermpohl Abstract Background: This study aimed to investigate the development of opioid tolerance in patients receiving long-term methadone maintenance treatment (MMT). Methods: A region-wide cross-sectional study was performed focusing on dosage and duration of treatment. Differences between racemic methadone and levomethadone were examined. All 20 psychiatric hospitals and all 110 outpatient clinics in Berlin licensed to offer MMT were approached in order to reach patients under MMT fulfilling the DSM IV criteria of opiate dependence. In the study, 720 patients treated with racemic methadone or levomethadone gave information on the dosage of treatment. Out of these, 679 patients indicated the duration of MMT. Results: Treatment with racemic methadone was reported for 370 patients (54.5 %), with levomethadone for 309 patients (45.5 %). Mean duration of MMT was 7.5 years. We found a significant correlation between dosage and duration of treatment, both in a conjoint analysis for the two substances racemic methadone and levomethadone and for each substance separately. These effects remained significant when only patients receiving MMT for 1 year or longer were considered, indicating proceeding tolerance development in long-term treatment. When correlations were compared between racemic methadone and levomethadone, no significant difference was found. Conclusions: Our data show a tolerance development under long-term treatment with both racemic methadone and levomethadone. -

They can arise from a combination of genomic, epigenomic, metabolic, and environmental factors. Aging is the leading risk factor for most chronic illnesses of old age, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. A progressive neurodegenerative process and neuroinflammation occur, and no current therapies can prevent, slow, or halt disease progression. To date, no novel disease-modifying therapies have been shown to provide significant benefit for patients who suffer from these devastating disorders. Therefore, early diagnosis and the discovery of new targets and novel therapies are of upmost importance. Neurodegenerative diseases, like in other age-related disorders, the progression of pathology begins many years before the onset of symptoms. Many efforts in this field have led to the conclusion that exits some similar events among these diseases that can explain why the aging brain is so vulnerable to suffer neurodegenerative diseases. -
