Introduction: Mirogabalin should be equivalent to pregabalin, but with fewer incidences of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). To verify these benefits in actual clinical trials, our study investigated the frequency of ADRs and mirogabalin' s analgesic effects during treatment of peripheral neuropathic pain.Methods: This study included 74 patients with lower limb pain. We surveyed patient reports of ADRs during the follow-up period as the primary endpoint and examined the visual analog scale (VAS) reported for lower limb pain as the secondary endpoint (before administration, and two and four weeks after administration).Results: The occurrence of ADR was 27.0%, like the frequency of ADRs in the clinical trials for other disorders. However, the discontinuation rate of administration was 10.8%, which was significantly lower than the frequency of ADR occurrences. When the analgesic effect was assessed, a significant decrease in the temporal change of VAS for lower limb pain was observed before administration, and two and four weeks after administration.Conclusions: In this study, the occurrence of ADRs reported by the patients was like the frequency of ADRs reported in the clinical trials for other disorders. When assessing the analgesic effect, the temporal change of VAS for lower limb pain was found to decrease significantly before administration, and two and four weeks after administration.

Introduction: Patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) usually have progressive scoliosis. Although fusion of the sacrum or pelvis has been recommended for correcting pelvic obliquity (PO), the procedure is invasive. This study determined as to whether performing instrumentation to the fifth lumbar vertebra (L5) is safe and effective for scoliosis in patients with SMA.Methods: Twelve patients with SMA underwent posterior spinal fusion and stopping instrumentation at the L5 level. We evaluated age at surgery, the duration of surgery, blood loss, complications, preoperative and postoperative Cobb angles, and PO.Results: The mean age at surgery was 11.4 years; the mean duration of surgery was 319 minutes, and the mean blood loss was 1170 mL. The Cobb angle improved from 97.3° to 39.1° at 1 month postoperatively (correction rate, 60.9%) and to 42.3° at the final follow-up. PO was corrected from 27.8° to 13.1° at 1 month postoperatively (correction rate, 51.7%) and to 19.8° at the final follow-up. No complications were reported. All patients showed improvement in low back pain, with reduced difficulty while sitting. However, >10% correction loss of PO was observed in 6 patients with high preoperative PO.Conclusions: The correction rate of scoliosis in SMA patients with posterior spinal fusion and instrumentation to the L5 level was acceptable, and no complications occurred. Scoliosis associated with SMA was more rigid and severer than scoliosis associated with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Correction rates of the Cobb angle and PO in SMA patients with instrumentation to L5 were similar to those in SMA patients with instrumentation to the sacrum or pelvis. Correction loss of PO was greater in patients with high preoperative PO than in those with low preoperative PO. Instrumentation and fusion to L5 for scoliosis in patients with SMA seems safe and effective, except in cases of high preoperative PO.
