Abstract

More sex-specific pain sensitivity normative values from population-based cohorts in pain-free older adults are required. The aims of this study were (1) to provide sex- and age-specific normative values of pressure and cold pain thresholds in older pain-free adults and (2) to examine the association of potential correlates of pain sensitivity with pain threshold values.
