“…According to the published literatures a single technique did not yield good clinical results no matter coblation or active exercise for chronic neck pain. [26,27] In this study the patient performed active exercise every day after minimally invasive surgery and got long-term pain relief which gave us clear strategy of clinical treatment for patients with discogenic pain. Passive exercise was usually accepted easily by people when they felt uncomfortable in clinic.…”

Rationale: Coblation of intervertebral disc is an effective and safe minimally invasive technology for treating discogenic pain. The inactivation of neural ingrowth around annulus and tissue ablation and coagulation are currently considered to be the major causes for success of this treatment. However, it has been found by clinical researchers that its long-term clinical outcome is not optimistic. This report has given us favorable information that this situation can be improved with multimodal therapy. Patient concerns: A 61-year-old man presented with right severe neck and shoulder pain in 2014 which could not be relieved by medications. Diagnoses: According to his symptoms and signs, this patient was diagnosed with cervical discogenic pain. And discography confirmed the diagnosis. Interventions: The patient underwent coblation of cervical intervertebral disc 4–5 (C4–5) and got apparently pain relief after surgery. After 1 month, he began to perform active exercise at least 30 min every day. Outcomes: The right neck and shoulder pain completely relieved for 4 years. The cervical lordosis of this patient was restored in 2018 which was confirmed by MRI compared in 2014 and NDI (neck disability index) decreased from 58 to 10%. Lessons: This report demonstrated that it was important and essential for clinicians to educate patients with discogenic pain to perform active exercise after minimally invasive surgery.

Purpose Non-specific chronic neck pain (NSCNP) is an increasingly common musculoskeletal disease and an important issue in the global healthcare system. Some studies have shown that the combination of manual therapy and exercise is effective in treating NSCNP but still with several limitations. Traditional Chinese manual therapy (tuina) is a Chinese manual therapy that consists of soft tissue manipulation and spinal manipulation. This study aims to design a randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of a tuina combined with specific therapeutic neck exercise modified protocol for NSCNP patients. Patients and Methods This is a study protocol for a randomized, participant-, assessor- and analyst-blinded controlled trial. Eighty-eight eligible NSCNP patients will be randomly allocated into tuina combined with specific therapeutic neck exercise group (TSTE group) and tuina combined with sham therapeutic neck exercise group (TS group) in a ratio of 1:1. All participants will receive 8 treatment sessions applied in 4 weeks and then be followed up for another 12 weeks. Clinical data will be collected at baseline, during treatment phase (at the 2- and 4-week) and at the 8-, 12-, 16-week follow-ups. The primary outcome is the changes in neck pain intensity (visual analogue scale). The secondary outcomes include neck disability (Neck Disability Index), cervical range of motion (ROM), neck muscle endurance, cervical muscle cross-sectional area, cervical curvature and analgesic consumption. Adverse events will be collected and recorded throughout the study. Conclusion We will discuss whether our tuina combined with specific therapeutic neck exercise modified protocol is more effective at improving pericervical muscle endurance, ROM, cervical muscle cross-sectional area and cervical curvature than tuina alone, thereby decreases neck pain and disability in individuals with NSCNP more effectively.

A Sub‐10 nm Vertical Organic/Inorganic Hybrid Transistor for Pain‐Perceptual and Sensitization‐Regulated Nociceptor Emulation

Pain‐perceptual nociceptors (PPN) are essential sensory neurons that recognize harmful stimuli and can empower the human body to react appropriately and perceive precisely unusual or dangerous conditions in the real world. Furthermore, the sensitization‐regulated nociceptors (SRN) can greatly assist pain‐sensitive human to reduce pain sensation by normalizing hyperexcitable central neural activity. Therefore, the implementation of PPNs and SRNs in hardware using emerging nanoscale devices can greatly improve the efficiency of bionic medical machines by giving them different sensitivities to external stimuli according to different purposes. However, current most‐normal organic/oxide transistors face a great challenge due to channel scaling, especially in the sub‐10 nm channel technology. Here, a sub‐10 nm indium‐tin‐oxide transistor with an ultrashort vertical channel as low as ≈3 nm, using sodium alginate bio‐polymer electrolyte as gate dielectric, is demonstrated. This device can emulate important characteristics of PPN such as pain threshold, memory of prior injury, and pain sensitization/desensitization. Furthermore, the most intriguing character of SRN can be achieved by tuning the channel thickness. The proposed device can open new avenues for the fascinating applications of next‐generation neuromorphic brain‐like systems, such as bio‐inspired electronic skins and humanoid robots.
