Treatment expectations (TE) are predictive of patient outcomes in clinical practice and suggested to moderate treatment responses in chronic pain clinical trials. However, evidence is mainly derived from studies conducted […]

Chronic pain is a highly prevalent condition globally. Low-socioeonomic (SES) populations tend to have higher prevalence rates and worsened pain outcomes. Although psychological interventions for chronic pain are considered an […]

Identify values that could predict the presence of increased pressure-pain sensitivity independent of the migraine cycle through a single assessment.
