| Description | This literature review documents trends in the use of mice in prolonged pain research, defined herein as research that subjects mice to a source of pain for at least 14 days. The total amount of prolonged pain research on mice has increased dramatically in the past decade for the 3 pain categories examined: neuropathic, inflammatory, and chronic pain. [...] Finally, although most authors referred to approval of experiments by an institutional nonhuman animal use committee, there were no references to the “3Rs” in a random selection of 55 papers examined. |
