Abstract
Currently, we are experiencing a true pandemic of a communicable disease by the virus SARS-CoV-2 holding the whole world firmly in its grasp. Amazingly and unfortunately, this virus uses a metabolic and endocrine pathway via ACE2 to enter our cells causing damage and disease. Our international research training programme funded by the German Research Foundation has a clear mission to train the best students wherever they may come from to learn to tackle the enormous challenges of diabetes and its complications for our society. A modern training programme in diabetes and metabolism does not only involve a thorough understanding of classical physiology, biology and clinical diabetology but has to bring together an interdisciplinary team. With the arrival of the coronavirus pandemic, this prestigious and unique metabolic training programme is facing new challenges but also new opportunities. The consortium of the training programme has recognized early on the need for a guidance and for practical recommendations to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic for the community of patients with metabolic disease, obesity and diabetes. This involves the optimal management from surgical obesity programmes to medications and insulin replacement. We also established a global registry analyzing the dimension and role of metabolic disease including new onset diabetes potentially triggered by the virus. We have involved experts of infectious disease and virology to our faculty with this metabolic training programme to offer the full breadth and scope of expertise needed to meet these scientific challenges. We have all learned that this pandemic does not respect or heed any national borders and that we have to work together as a global community. We believe that this transCampus metabolic training programme provides a prime example how an international team of established experts in the field of metabolism can work together with students from all over the world to address a new pandemic.

Abstract
Early life stages (ELS) of numerous marine invertebrates mustcope with man-made contaminants, including plastic debris, during their pelagic phase. Among the diversity of plastic particles, nano-sized debris, known as nanoplastics, can induce effects with severe outcomes in ELS of various biological models, including the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas. Here, we investigated the effects of a sub-lethal dose (0.1 µg mL-1) of 50 nm polystyrene nanobeads (nano-PS) with amine functions on oyster embryos (24 h exposure) and we assessed consequences on larval and adult performances over two generations of oysters. Only a few effects were observed. Lipid analyses revealed that first-generation (G1) embryos exposed to nano-PS displayed a relative increase in cardiolipin content (+9.7%), suggesting a potential modification of mitochondrial functioning. G1-larvae issued from exposed embryos showed decreases in larval growth (-9%) and lipid storage (-20%). No effect was observed at the G1 adult stage in terms of growth, ecophysiological parameters (clearance and respiration rates, absorption efficiency), or reproductive outputs (gonadic development, gamete quality). Second generation (G2) larvae issued from control G1 displayed a significant growth reduction after G2 embryonic exposure to nano-PS (-24%) compared to control (as observed at the first generation), while no intergenerational effect was detected on G2 larvae issued from G1 exposed embryos. Overall, the present experimental study suggests a low incidence of a short embryonic exposure to nano-PS on oyster phenotypes along the entire life cycle until the next larval generation.

Abstract
Exciton-exciton annihilation (EEA) is a ubiquitous phenomenon, which may limit the efficiency of photovoltaic devices. Conventional methods of determining EEA time scales rely on measuring the intensity dependence of third-order signals. In this work, we directly extract the annihilation rate of molecular excitons in a covalently joined molecular trimer without the need to perform and analyze intensity dependent data by employing fifth-order coherent optical spectroscopy signals emitted into ±2k⃗1 ∓ 2k⃗2 + k⃗3 phase matching directions. Measured two-dimensional line shapes and their time traces are analyzed in the framework of the many-body version of the Frenkel exciton model, extended to incorporate annihilation dynamics. Combining double-sided Feynman diagrams with explicit simulations of the fifth-order response, we identify a single peak as a direct reporter of EEA. We retrieve an annihilation time of 30 fs for the investigated squaraine trimer.

Abstract
Oysters are keystone species that use external fertilization as a sexual mode. The gametes are planktonic and face a wide range of stressors, including plastic litter. Nanoplastics are of increasing concern because their size allows pronounced interactions with biological membranes, making them a potential hazard to marine life. In the present study, oyster spermatozoa were exposed for 1 h to various doses (from 0.1 to 25 µg mL-1) of 50-nm polystyrene beads with amine (50-NH2 beads) or carboxyl (50-COOH beads) functions. Microscopy revealed adhesion of particles to the spermatozoa membranes, but no translocation of either particle type into cells. Nevertheless, the 50-NH2 beads at 10 µg mL-1 induced a high spermiotoxicity, characterized by a decrease in the percentage of motile spermatozoa (-79%) and in the velocity (-62%) compared to control spermatozoa, with an overall drop in embryogenesis success (-59%). This major reproduction failure could be linked to a homeostasis disruption in exposed spermatozoa. The 50-COOH beads hampered spermatozoa motility only when administered at 25 µg mL-1 and caused a decrease in the percentage of motile spermatozoa (-66%) and in the velocity (-38%), but did not affect embryogenesis success. Microscopy analyses indicated these effects were probably due to physical blockages by microscale aggregates formed by the 50-COOH beads in seawater. This toxicological study emphasizes that oyster spermatozoa are a useful and sensitive model for (i) deciphering the fine interactions underpinning nanoplastic toxicity and (ii) evaluating adverse effects of plastic nanoparticles on marine biota while waiting for their concentration to be known in the environment.

Abstract
Plastic pollution has become one of the biggest environmental concerns of the Anthropocene as it represents a major threat to both wildlife and human health. Garbage patches in the world's oceans are well documented, but quantitative assessments of floating debris are still lacking in some major areas. The Mediterranean Sea is one such area, despite being one of the most plastic polluted environments. We used data from the first international basin-scale survey of the Mediterranean Sea to provide the first abundance estimate of floating mega-debris (>30 cm) and map their distribution over the entire Mediterranean Sea. We estimated the total number of floating mega-debris at 2.9 million items, taking into account imperfect detection. Items larger than 30 cm represent only one fourth of the complete load of anthropogenic debris (>2 cm) in the Mediterranean, which scales up the estimate to 11.5 million floating debris. The highest densities were observed in the central Mediterranean, and the lowest in the eastern basin. This acute marine pollution might threaten to disrupt entire ecosystems through its impact on marine fauna (entanglement, ingestion, contamination), eventually impacting the tourism industry and the well-being of Mediterranean populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the patterns of use and perceived benefits and barriers among people living with HIV and their physicians concerning telemedicine and the collection of computerized personal information. METHODS Multicenter online observational survey from October 15 to 19, 2018. RESULTS Study participation was accepted by 229 physicians and 838/1,377 PLHIV followed in 46 centers, of which 325 (39%) responded online. We found that while 226/302 (75%) PLHIV accept online prescription renewals and 197/302 (65%) accept online medical certificates, 182/302 (60%) PLHIV-who were more often in material/social deprivation (OR=1.70±0.45; P=0.045), less often born in Île-de-France (OR=0.43±0.15; P=0.018), with lower CD4 T-cell counts (OR=0.999±0.0004; P=0.038), and less often on psychiatric treatment (OR=0.50±0.18; P=0.047)-were receptive to teleconsultations. However, 137/225 (61%) physicians would be uncomfortable teleconsulting due to inadequate data security without it reducing the number of consultations or offering economic benefit. Asked about collection of computerized personal information, 197/296 (67%) PLHIV and 139/223 (62%) physicians agreed it improved quality of care, but 144 (49%) PLHIV and 94/222 (42%) physicians thought it was not sufficiently framed by the law. eHealth was seen as improving coordination between health professionals by 240/296 (81%) PLHIV and seen as a good thing by 181/225 (81%) physicians. CONCLUSION More than half of PLHIV were ready for telemedicine. PLHIV and physicians endorsed the advantage of e-health in terms of better coordination across health professionals but mistrust the data collection factor, which warrants either clarification or stronger legal protections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate patterns of use and perceived benefits and barriers to health/wellness applications (apps) and smart devices among people living with HIV (PLHIV) and their physicians. METHODS Online multicenter observational survey (October 15-19, 2018). RESULTS Study participation was accepted by 229 physicians and 838/1377 PLHIV followed in 46 centers, of which 325 (39%) responded online. Overall, 83/288 (29%) PLHIV had already downloaded at least one app: these 'downloaders' were younger (OR0.96±0.01, P=0.004), educated to at least university entry level (OR2.27±0.86, P=0.03), and more frequently used geolocation-based dating websites (OR3.00±1.09, P=0.002). However, 227/314 (72%) PLHIV claimed they were ready to use an app recommended by a physician. For the 60/83 PLHIV who answered, the ideal app would be a vaccination tracker (76%) to better communicate with their physician (68%). However, 96/277 (42%) physicians were unable to answer this question and for 94/227 (41%) of them, the ideal patient app would be for schedule management. Although PLHIV used smart devices, 231/306 (75%) would want to report the data to their physicians and 137/225 (61%) of physicians would welcome this exchange. The main physician-side barrier to this exchange was concerns over data security. CONCLUSION mHealth apps and smart devices have failed to garner adoption by PLHIV. There is a case for good-quality health data sharing and exchange if PLHIV are provided with appropriately secure tools and physicians are backed up by adapted legislation.

Abstract
Background: Atypical myelitis in multiple sclerosis (MS) is characterized by extensive myelitis in the longitudinal (longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis) or axial plane (transverse myelitis). Objective: To characterize a cohort of MS patients with atypical myelitis. Methods: Atypical myelitis was extracted from the French and Luxembourg MS databases and compared to two cohorts of MS patients with typical myelitis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) patients with myelitis. Results: We enrolled 28 MS patients with atypical myelitis, 68 MS patients with typical myelitis and 119 NMOSD patients with a first episode of myelitis. MS patients with atypical myelitis were characterized by a mean age of 34.0 (±10.7) years and 64.3% were women. In 82.1% of the patients, atypical myelitis was the first episode of MS. Mean Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores at nadir and 3–6 months after onset were 4.1 ± 2.1 and 3.3 ± 2, respectively. Differences between groups revealed a predominance of cervicothoracic myelitis and a higher level of disability in NMOSD patients. Disability in MS patients with atypical myelitis was more severe than in the MS patients with typical myelitis; 28% had already converted to progressive MS within our mean follow-up of 39.6 (±30.4) months. Conclusion: Atypical myelitis may be the first presentation of MS and is associated with poorer prognosis.

Abstract
Rosellinia (Xylariaceae) is a large, cosmopolitan genus comprising over 130 species that have been defined based mainly on the morphology of their sexual morphs. The genus comprises both lignicolous and saprotrophic species that are frequently isolated as endophytes from healthy host plants, and important plant pathogens. In order to evaluate the utility of molecular phylogeny and secondary metabolite profiling to achieve a better basis for their classification, a set of strains was selected for a multi-locus phylogeny inferred from a combination of the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), the large subunit (LSU) of the nuclear rDNA, beta-tubulin (TUB2) and the second largest subunit of the RNA polymerase II (RPB2). Concurrently, various strains were surveyed for production of secondary metabolites. Metabolite profiling relied on methods with high performance liquid chromatography with diode array and mass spectrometric detection (HPLC-DAD/MS) as well as preparative isolation of the major components after re-fermentation followed by structure elucidation using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and high resolution mass spectrometry (HR-MS). Two new and nine known isopimarane diterpenoids were identified during our mycochemical studies of two selected Dematophora strains and the metabolites were tested for biological activity. In addition, the nematicidal cyclodepsipeptide PF1022 A was purified and identified from a culture of Rosellinia corticium, which is the first time that this endophyte-derived drug precursor has been identified unambiguously from an ascospore-derived isolate of a Rosellinia species. While the results of this first HPLC profiling were largely inconclusive regarding the utility of secondary metabolites as genus-specific chemotaxonomic markers, the phylogeny clearly showed that species featuring a dematophora-like asexual morph were included in a well-defined clade, for which the genus Dematophora is resurrected. Dematophora now comprises all previously known important plant pathogens in the genus such as D. arcuata, D. bunodes, D. necatrix and D. pepo, while Rosellinia s. str. comprises those species that are known to have a geniculosporium-like or nodulisporium-like asexual morph, or where the asexual morph remains unknown. The extensive morphological studies of L.E. Petrini served as a basis to transfer several further species from Rosellinia to Dematophora, based on the morphology of their asexual morphs. However, most species of Rosellinia and allies still need to be recollected in fresh state, cultured, and studied for their morphology and their phylogenetic affinities before the infrageneric relationships can be clarified.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess visual improvement in patients with pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD) after fitting with SPOT® scleral contact lenses (Scleral Protection & Ocular Treatment, Laboratoires d'Appareillage Oculaire, Amphion-Les-Bains, France). METHODS We report a case series of 5 patients with PMD and unsatisfactory refractive correction managed at Clermont-Ferrand university hospital from January to December 2018 fitted with customized SPOT scleral lenses. We assessed the best-corrected visual acuity (BVCA) before and after fitting with SPOT, keratometric data and tolerability of the scleral lenses. RESULTS Nine eyes of 5 patients aged 51.8±8.47 years were fitted. The BVCA was significantly improved from 0.51 logMAR (±0.39) to 0.04 logMAR (±0.07) (P<0.001). Sixty-six percent of the patients recovered optimal BVCA. No serious adverse event was reported. The presence of whitish deposits and an inordinate amount of manipulation required were the main disadvantages of the lenses. Nevertheless, all the patients considered them to be comfortable. CONCLUSION Fitting PMD patients who have failed conventional optical devices with SPOT scleral lenses significantly improves BCVA, without serious adverse events, allowing surgery to be deferred even when it appears to be unavoidable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/BACKGROUND Rapid eye movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD) in Parkinson's disease (PD) may be associated with a malignant phenotype. Despite its prognostic value, little is known about the time course of RBD in PD. In this study, we aimed to ascertain whether or not RBD is a stable feature in PD. In this study, we prospectively evaluated clinical and neurophysiological features of RBD, including REM Sleep Without Atonia (RSWA), in PD patients with RBD at baseline and after three years then assessed whether the changes in measures of RSWA parallel the progression of PD. PATIENTS/METHODS In sum, 22 (17M, mean age 64.0 ± 6.9 years) moderate-to-advanced PD patients (mean PD duration at baseline:7.6±4.8 years) with RBD, underwent a video-polysomnography (vPSG) recording and clinical and neuropsychological assessment at baseline and after three years. RESULTS At follow-up, the self-assessed frequency of RBD symptoms increased in six patients, decreased in six and remained stable in 10, while RSWA measures significantly increased in all subjects. At follow-up, patients showed worse H&Y stage (p = 0.02), higher dopaminergic doses (p = 0.05) and they performed significantly worse in phonetic and semantic fluency tests (p = 0.02; p = 0.04). Changes in RSWA correlated significantly with the severity in levodopa-induced dyskinesia (r = 0.61,p = 0.05) and motor fluctuation (r = 0.54,p = 0.03) scores, and with the worsening of executive functions (r = 0.78,p = 0.001) and visuo-spatial perception (r = -0.57,p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Despite the subjective improvement of RBD symptoms in one-fourth of PD patients, all RSWA measures increased significantly at follow-up, and their changes correlated with the clinical evolution of motor and non-motor symptoms. RBD is a long-lasting feature in PD and RSWA is a marker of the disease's progression.

Abstract
Medical tubings in plasticized polyvinylchloride (PVC) are widely used for the infusion of medications but are known in some cases to cause content-container interactions (drug sorption and plasticizer release). The aim of this study was to assess interactions between drugs and five alternative materials to a reference plasticized PVC intravenous (IV) infusion tubing: three were PVC coextruded with polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PU) or a thermoplastic elastomer (Styrene-EthyleneButadiene-Styrene (SEBS)) and two were SEBS or thermoplastic olefin (TPO) monolayer tubings. Diazepam and insulin were chosen as respective reference of absorption and adsorption while paracetamol acted as a negative control. The concentration of each drug was quantified with liquid chromatography to evaluate a potential loss after a static contact condition and simulated infusion at 1 mL/h and 10 mL/h dynamic condition by an electric syringe pump. A characterization of each material's surface was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflection mode (ATR-FTIR) and by measurement of surface zeta potential. Plasticizer release was quantified by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). For all tubings except PVC/PU, no loss of paracetamol was observed in any condition. Diazepam sorption appeared to be less important with PVC/PE, PVC/SEBS, SEBS and TPO tubings than with PVC, but was more important when using PVC/PU tubings. PVC tubings induced the least loss of insulin amongst all the studied materials. Surface analysis by ATR-FTIR highlighted the presence of a plasticizer (that could be attributed to Tris (2-Ethylhexyl) Trimellitate (TOTM)) in the coextruded SEBS layer of PVC/SEBS, which could have influenced drug sorption, probably as a consequence of a migration from the PVC layer. Coextruded PVC/SEBS and PVC/PE presented the lowest zeta potential of all studied materials with respective values of -39 mV and -36 mV and were related to the highest sorption of insulin while PVC/PU with the highest zeta potential (about -9 mV) presented the highest absorption of diazepam. Coextruded layered materials appeared to have a lower plasticizer release than PVC alone. As a conclusion, PVC/PE and thermoplastic elastomers alone or coextruded with PVC could be interesting alternatives to PVC tubings with regards to sorption phenomena and plasticizer release.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess visual improvement in patients with pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD) after fitting with SPOT® scleral contact lenses (Scleral Protection & Ocular Treatment, Laboratoires d'Appareillage Oculaire, Amphion-Les-Bains, France). METHODS We report a case series of 5 patients with PMD and unsatisfactory refractive correction managed at Clermont-Ferrand university hospital from January to December 2018 fitted with customized SPOT scleral lenses. We assessed the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) before and after fitting with SPOT, keratometric data and tolerability of the scleral lenses. RESULTS Nine eyes of 5 patients aged 51.8±8.47 years were fitted. The BCVA was significantly improved from 0.51 logMAR (±0.39) to 0.04 logMAR (±0.07) (P<0.001). Sixty-six percent of the patients recovered optimal BCVA. No serious adverse event was reported. The presence of whitish deposits and an inordinate amount of manipulation required were the main disadvantages of the lenses. Nevertheless, all the patients considered them to be comfortable. CONCLUSION Fitting PMD patients who have failed conventional optical devices with SPOT scleral lenses significantly improves BCVA, without serious adverse events, allowing surgery to be deferred even when it appears to be unavoidable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We evaluated the ability of Coll2-1, a type II collagen peptide, to activate pro-inflammatory pathways in synovial cells and to induce arthritis in Lewis rats. METHOD Human synoviocytes and chondrocytes from knee OA patients were cultured for 24 h with/without Coll2-1 and/or purified immunoglobulin G (AS0619) binding specifically this peptide, and/or CLI-095, a TLR-4 signaling inhibitor and/or apocynin and diphenyleneiodonium, Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production inhibitors. The Interleukin (IL)-8 and Vascular Endothelium Growth Factor (VEGF) expression, the IL-8 production, the IκB-α and p65 phosphorylation and ROS were evaluated. Coll2-1 peptide, bovine type II collagen (CIA), streptococcal cell wall (SCW) or saline solution were injected into Lewis rats. The Coll2-1 peptide was injected subcutaneously (SC; 20-200μg/100μl/animal) or intra-articularly (IA; 0.5-5μg/50μl/animal) and compared to CIA injected in SC (200μg/100μl/animal) and SCW in IA (5μg/50μl/animal). The animals were injected on day 0 and monitored for 28 days. Histological lesions assessment was performed using an arthritis score. RESULTS Coll2-1 peptide significantly increased IL-8 gene expression and production by synoviocytes. AS0619 and CLI-095 significantly decreased IL-8 expression. Coll2-1 induced p65 and IκBα phosphorylation and oxidative stress inhibitors decreased it. In human chondrocytes culture, Coll2-1 significantly increased MMP-3 and VEGF gene expression. In Lewis rats, CIA, SCW or Coll2-1 injection triggered arthritis. Like CIA or SCW, Coll2-1 induced synovitis, loss of cartilage proteoglycans, cartilage structure lesion and subchondral bone remodeling. CONCLUSIONS Coll2-1 activates synoviocytes to produce IL-8 and induces arthritis in rat. These findings suggest that neutralizing Coll2-1 could be a therapeutic approach of arthritis.

Abstract
A double-platform protocol was implemented in the Bay of Biscay and English Channel during the SCANS-III survey (2016). Two observation platforms using different protocols were operating on board a single aircraft: the reference platform (Scans), targeting cetaceans, and the 'Megafauna' platform, recording all the marine fauna visible at the sea surface (jellyfish to seabirds). We tested for a potential bias in small cetacean detection and density estimation when recording all marine fauna. At a small temporal scale (30 s, roughly 1.5 km), our results provided overall similar perception probabilities for both platforms. Small cetacean perception was higher following the detection of another cetacean within the previous 30 s in both platforms. The only prior target that decreased small cetacean perception during the subsequent 30 s was seabirds, in the Megafauna platform. However, at a larger scale (study area), this small-scale perception bias had no effect on the density estimates, which were similar for the two protocols. As a result, there was no evidence of lower performance regarding small cetacean population monitoring for the multi-target protocol in our study area. Because our study area was characterized by moderate cetacean densities and small spatial overlap of cetaceans and seabirds, any extrapolation to other areas or time requires caution. Nonetheless, by permitting the collection of cost-effective quantitative data for marine fauna, anthropogenic activities and marine litter at the sea surface, the multi-target protocol is valuable for optimizing logistical and financial resources to efficiently monitor biodiversity and study community ecology.

Abstract
When a molecule is bound to external electrodes by terminal anchor groups, the latter are of paramount importance in determining the electrical conductance of the resulting molecular junction. Here we explore the electrical properties of a molecule with bidentate anchor groups, namely 4,4'-(1,4-phenylenebis(ethyne-2,1-diyl))bis(pyridin-2-amine), in both large area devices and at the single molecule level. We find an electrical conductance of 0.6 × 10-4G0 and 1.2 × 10-4G0 for the monolayer and for the single molecule, respectively. These values are approximately one order of magnitude higher than those reported for monodentate materials having the same molecular skeleton. A combination of theory and experiments is employed to understand the conductance of monolayer and single molecule electrical junctions featuring this new multidentate anchor group. Our results demonstrate that the molecule has a tilt angle of 30° with respect to the normal to the surface in the monolayer, while the break-off length in the single molecule junction occurs for molecules having a tilt angle estimated as 40°, which would account for the difference in their conductance values per molecule. The bidentate 2-aminepyridine anchor is of general interest as a contact group, since this terminal functionalized aromatic ring favours binding of the adsorbate to the metal contact resulting in enhanced conductance values.

Abstract
Detection of incidental finding and variant of unknown significance (VUS) during prenatal diagnosis has particularly increased with the emergence of genetic tests such chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). Many factors and clear guidelines need to be applied in the interpretation of the potential clinical consequences of unreported complex copy number variations (deletions/duplications). From a clinical case where an unreported and not completely intragenic duplication in F8 gene has been identified in a 12-week-old fetus without haemophilia A history documented in the family, we will examine and study the difficulties of interpretation and the challenges that the detection of such variant has on genetic counselling.

Abstract
Abstract
Editor’s Perspective
What We Already Know about This Topic
What This Article Tells Us That Is New
Background
Central pain sensitization is often refractory to drug treatment. Dextromethorphan, an N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor antagonist, is antihyperalgesic in preclinical pain models. The hypothesis is that dextromethorphan is also antihyperalgesic in humans.
Methods
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study explores the antihyperalgesic effect of single and repeated 30-mg dose of oral dextromethorphan in 20 volunteers, using the freeze-injury pain model. This model leads to development of primary and secondary hyperalgesia, which develops away from the site of injury and is associated with central sensitization and activation of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor in the spinal cord. The primary outcome was antihyperalgesia calculated with the area under the curve of the percentage change in mechanical pain threshold (electronic von Frey) on the area of secondary hyperalgesia. The secondary outcomes were mechanical pain threshold on the area of primary hyperalgesia and cognitive (reaction time) effect.
Results
Single 30-mg results are reported. Antihyperalgesia (% · min) is significantly higher on the area of secondary hyperalgesia with dextromethorphan than placebo (median [interquartile range]: 3,029 [746; 6,195] vs. 710 [–3,248; 4,439], P = 0.009, Hedge’s g = 0.8, 95% CI [0.1; 1.4]). On primary hyperalgesia area, mechanical pain threshold 2 h after drug intake is significantly higher with dextromethorphan (P = 0.011, Hedge’s g = 0.63, 95% CI [0.01; 1.25]). No difference in antinociception is observed after thermal painful stimuli on healthy skin between groups. Reaction time (ms) is shorter with placebo than with dextromethorphan (median [interquartile range]: 21.6 [–37.4; 0.1] vs. –1.2 [–24.3; 15.4], P = 0.015, Hedge’s g = 0.75, 95% CI [0.12; 1.39]). Nonserious adverse events occurrence (15%, 3 of 20 volunteers) was similar in both groups.
Conclusions
This study shows that low-dose (30-mg) dextromethorphan is antihyperalgesic in humans on the areas of primary and secondary hyperalgesia and reverses peripheral and central neuronal sensitization. Because dextromethorphan had no intrinsic antinociceptive effect in acute pain on healthy skin, N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor may need to be sensitized by pain for dextromethorphan to be effective.
