diazepam and Osteoarthritis

diazepam has been researched along with Osteoarthritis in 4 studies

Diazepam: A benzodiazepine with anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, sedative, muscle relaxant, and amnesic properties and a long duration of action. Its actions are mediated by enhancement of GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID activity.
diazepam : A 1,4-benzodiazepinone that is 1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one substituted by a chloro group at position 7, a methyl group at position 1 and a phenyl group at position 5.

Osteoarthritis: A progressive, degenerative joint disease, the most common form of arthritis, especially in older persons. The disease is thought to result not from the aging process but from biochemical changes and biomechanical stresses affecting articular cartilage. In the foreign literature it is often called osteoarthrosis deformans.

Mean of the Change in Morphine Dosage (in mg) Required to Achieve 25% Reduction in Thermal Evoked Pain Responses Relative to Baseline (Pre-intervention) Placebo Condition Responses

"At a laboratory testing day pre and post intervention each participant received morphine sulphate (0.3mg/kg in 20ml saline vehicle initially, followed by 3 incremental doses of 0.02 mg/kg each with testing for thermal evoked pain response. Weight adjusted dosing was used by multiplying the weight of each patient in kg by 0.3mg (dose 1 only) or by .02mg (doses 2-4), with all doses infused in 20mL saline vehicle.~Mean of the change in morphine dosage required to achieve 25 % reduction in thermal evoked pain responses on testing day at baseline (pre-intervention) and post intervention. Positive values for the change in the mean between pre and post intervention indicated decreased morphine requirements post intervention." (NCT02469077)

Mean Within-participant Changes From Pre- to Post-intervention in Opioid Blockade Effects (Within-participant Difference Between Naloxone and Placebo Conditions) for McGill Pain Questionnaire-2 Total Ratings of Back Pain.

"Between-participant (aerobic exercise vs. control group) comparison of mean changes from pre- to post-intervention in opioid blockade effects for McGill Pain Questionnaire-2 Total ratings of back pain based on 3 laboratory testing days at baseline (pre intervention) and post intervention. The score ranges from 0-10 where 0 represents no pain and 10 represents most intense pain. Positive values indicate increased endogenous opioid analgesia post intervention.~This measure will test the effects of the exercise (versus control) intervention on clinical outcomes as indexed by changes in opioid blockade effects (the difference in laboratory evoked pain response evoked between placebo and naloxone drug conditions).~This is a mixed within-between subject design.
