   Neuropathic pain study uncovers pathophysiological mechanism and promising therapeutic targetNeuropathic pain study uncovers pathophysiological mechanism and promising therapeutic target
 
Neuropathic pain -; abnormal hypersensitivity to stimuli -; is associated with impaired quality of life and is often poorly managed. Estimates suggest that 3 percent to 17 percent of adults suffer from neuropathic pain, including a quarter of people with diabetes and a third of people with HIV.
