This study correlates mouse digging behavior with human pain experience, showing that digging deficits reflect pain levels and that meloxicam is more effective than gabapentin in alleviating these deficits.

The paper identifies naturally occurring receptor combinations in endothelial cells using single-cell data and introduces a software tool to analyze them, showing evolutionary conservation and relevance to angiogenesis.
