Article Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced pain is one of the major challenges that hamper the patient's quality of life. Several cases of insufficient pain management were reported globally, especially in the case of patients who do not respond well to conventional pain management regimes and opioid analgesics. Additionally, conventional pain management has several shortcomings, and evidence suggests that cannabidiol has the potential to overcome those shortcomings. Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive compound of the Cannabis plant that shows an effective outcome in chemotherapy- induced pain as well as in cancer treatment, as it possesses anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. The mechanism of pain and its management by cannabidiol, with all possible evidence, is well summarised in the paper. This article concludes the types of pain experienced by cancer patients, the effectiveness of CBD in the management of pain, and challenges faced by patients after using Cannabidiol with various case studies. Later, antitumor efficacy studies of CBD were disclosed, and its various types of formulations and nano-formulations were summarized in the paper. Overall, the paper establishes the role of cannabidiol in Chemotherapy-induced pain.

Anal fissure causes pain and bleeding during or after bowel movements, significantly impacting individuals' quality of life. Current treatments aim to interrupt this cycle but have associated risks and limitations. The emergence of arginine, crucial for protein creation and nitric oxide (NO) production, presents an intriguing therapeutic avenue by the impact on reducing anal sphincter pressure and enhancing anoderm blood flow, due to its roles in vasodilation, anti-inflammatory responses, and collagen synthesis, which can promote wound healing and highlighting its potential as an alternative therapy.

Background And Importance: In the Czech Republic, paramedics are required to consult a physician before administering intravenous opioids, which may delay effective prehospital pain management. As paramedic competencies expand in Europe, it is important to evaluate the safety and efficacy of independent opioid administration in prehospital emergency care settings.
Objectives: To assess the safety and effectiveness of intravenous sufentanil administered independently by trained paramedics compared to administration following remote physician consultation in adult trauma patients.

Adrenal cysts are rare lesions that are increasingly discovered incidentally during radiological examinations conducted without suspicion of adrenal disease. Typically benign, hormonally nonfunctional, and asymptomatic, these lesions may occasionally manifest mass effect symptoms such as pain or abdominal discomfort, particularly in large cysts. Management approaches vary from no follow-up to hormonal investigation, imaging follow-up, or adrenalectomy, especially if the cyst is growing or exhibits an atypical appearance.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the risk of selected adverse outcomes for older adults with a new episode of neck pain (NP) receiving chiropractic care compared to those receiving primary medical care with Prescription Drug Therapy (PDT) or primary care without medication.
Methods: Through analysis of Medicare claims data, we designed a retrospective cohort study including 291 604 patients with a new office visit for NP in 2019. We developed 3 mutually exclusive exposure groups: the Chiropractic Manipulative Therapy (CMT) group received spinal manipulative therapy from a chiropractor with no primary care visits; the PDT group visited primary care and filled an analgesic prescription within 7 days without chiropractic care, and the Primary Care Only (PCO) group visited primary care without chiropractic care or analgesic prescriptions.
