The opioid crisis has stimulated renewed interest in analgesic drug development. This effort will involve preclinical-to-clinical translational research and will benefit from a focus on endpoints that are both clinically relevant and shared across laboratory animals and humans. Measures of pain-related functional impairment and behavioral depression could serve this purpose.
阿片类药物危机刺激了人们对镇痛药物开发的重新关注。这一努力将涉及临床前到临床的转化研究,并将受益于关注临床相关且在实验室动物和人类中共享的终点。与疼痛相关的功能障碍和行为抑郁的测量可以达到这一目的。
