Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Because in vitro studies have shown that nimesulide not only preferentially inhibits COX-2 but also reduces the action/release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, down-regulates the synthesis and/or activity of collagenase(s), and releases reactive oxygen species and other toxic substances from neutrophils, this study investigated whether nimesulide and ibuprofen could affect levels of biochemical markers of joint inflammation and collagen catabolism in patients with flare-up of knee or hip osteoarthritis."9.11Comparative effect of nimesulide and ibuprofen on the urinary levels of collagen type II C-telopeptide degradation products and on the serum levels of hyaluronan and matrix metalloproteinases-3 and -13 in patients with flare-up of osteoarthritis. ( Bevilacqua, M; Devogelaer, JP; Famaey, JP; Manicourt, DH; Righini, V, 2005)
"The present data confirm our previous observations in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, further suggesting that nimesulide represents an effective agent for the treatment of joint pain, with particular reference to the rapid onset of its analgesic effect."9.10A randomised, double-blind, clinical trial comparing the efficacy of nimesulide, celecoxib and rofecoxib in osteoarthritis of the knee. ( Bianchi, M; Broggini, M, 2003)
