Hypoalgesic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may provide critical insights into human abdominal pain. This condition was previously associated with homozygosity for a polymorphism (rs6795970, A1073V; 1073 val/val ) related to […]

This study explored the potential of electrogastrography (EGG) and heart rate variability (HRV) as psychophysiological markers in experimental pain research related to the gut-brain axis. We investigated responses to the […]

Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a multifaceted condition that poses significant challenges in clinical management owing to its complex and varied pathophysiology, including neuropathic, somatic, visceral, and musculoskeletal components. Endometriosis […]
