Abstract

We identified progressively reduced miR-223 as a putative biomarker of chronic CRPS pain. Clinically, this study underlines the importance of early diagnosis and treatment showing that high initial pain does not predict an unfavourable outcome. Finally, pain relief and recovery of sensory disturbances seem independent processes.
