Pharmacological pain management in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: a narrative literature review by Natasha Cox, Christian D. Mallen, Ian C. Scott

“…Despite limited evidence that analgesics improve pain in patients with RA, these medicines are widely prescribed. The reasons for this are unclear. We consider that closing this evidence-to-practice gap requires qualitative research exploring the drivers of this practice, high-quality trials of analgesic efficacy in contemporary RA populations, alongside an increased focus on pain management (including pharmacological and non-pharmacological options) within RA guidelines.…”

Phase Behavior Identification and Formation Mechanisms of the BZ19-6 Condensate Gas Reservoir in the Deep Bozhong Sag, Bohai Bay Basin, Eastern China by Zhenliang Wang, Shengdong Xiao, Feilong Wang, Guomin Tang, Liwen Zhu, Zilong Zhao

“…The genetic mechanism of the BZ19-6 condensate gas reservoir was investigated in detail through analyses of physical properties of the fluid at high temperatures and pressures, organic geochemical characteristics of condensate oil and gas, and regional tectonic background. Consequently, this study is shown as follows: (1) The BZ19-6 condensate gas reservoir is a part of a secondary condensate gas reservoir with oil rings, formed synthetically since the Neogene period due to multiple factors, such as retrograde evaporation from deep burial and high temperature, inorganic CO2 charging from the deep mantle, and late natural gas invasion. (2) The hydrocarbon accumulation process of the BZ19-6 condensate gas reservoir is as follows: First, a large amount of oil is accumulated at the end of the lower Minghuazhen deposition (5 Ma BP); second, a large amount of natural gas is generated in the deep-source kitchen and mantle-derived inorganic CO2 charged into the early formed oil reservoirs at the end of the upper Minghuazhen deposition (2 Ma BP). …”
