Abstract

In 2019, the International Association for the Study of Pain introduced the concept of ‘chronic primary pain (CPP)’, characterized by persistent non-organic pain with emotional and functional abnormalities. Underdiagnosed and linked to depression, CPP has poorly understood neural characteristics. Electroencephalogram (EEG) microstates enable detailed examination of brain network dynamics at the millisecond level. Incorporating task-related EEG features offers a comprehensive neurophysiological signature of brain dysfunction, facilitating exploration of potential neural mechanisms.
