Resolvins are omega-3 fatty acid derived potent bioactive lipids that resolve inflammation and modulate transient receptor potential channels. Exogenous administration of the resolvin precursor 17-HDHA shows a strong analgesic effect in animal models...

Association of beta-blocker use with less prevalent joint pain and lower opioid requirement in people with osteoarthritis (2017)
Journal Article
Valdes, A. M., Abhishek, A., Muir, K., Zhang, W., Maciewicz, R. A., & Doherty, M. (2017). Association of beta-blocker use with less prevalent joint pain and lower opioid requirement in people with osteoarthritis. Arthritis Care and Research, 69(7), 1076-1081. https://doi.org/10.1002/acr.23091

Objective: Recent findings suggest that β-adrenergic blockers have anti-nociceptive properties. The aim of this study was to compare levels of large joint pain between those on adrenergic blockers and those on other antihypertensive medications. Met...

First validation of the gout activity score against gout impact scale in a primary care based gout cohort (2017)
Journal Article
La-Crette, J., Jenkins, W., Fernandes, G. S., Valdes, A. M., Doherty, M., & Abhishek, A. (in press). First validation of the gout activity score against gout impact scale in a primary care based gout cohort. Joint Bone Spine, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbspin.2017.05.010

Objectives To validate the gout activity score (GAS) against the gout impact scale in a primary care based gout cohort. Methods This was a single-centre cross-sectional study. People with gout who participated in previous research at Academic Rheuma... Read More about First validation of the gout activity score against gout impact scale in a primary care based gout cohort.
