Cortical excitability and multifidus activation responses to transcranial direct current stimulation in patients with chronic low back pain during remission.

Evidence indicates that patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) have lumbar multifidus muscle (LM) activation deficit which might be caused by changes in cortical excitability. Anodal transcranial direct current […]

Strong and aversive cold processing and pain facilitation in fibromyalgia patients relates to augmented thermal grill illusion.

The thermal grill illusion (TGI) is assumed to result from crosstalk between the thermoreceptive and nociceptive pathways. To elucidate this further, we compared 40 female fibromyalgia patients to 20 healthy […]

Large-scale momentary brain co-activation patterns are associated with hyperalgesia and mediate focal neurochemistry and cross-network functional connectivity in fibromyalgia.

Fibromyalgia has been characterized by augmented cross-network functional communication between the brain’s sensorimotor, default mode, and attentional (salience/ventral and dorsal) networks. However, the underlying mechanisms of these aberrant communication patterns […]
