Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) has been the common cause to lead to chronic pain. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is effective in the treatment of chronic pain, but its analgesic mechanism is still unclear. This study observed the analgesic effects of tDCS in rats to explore the top-down analgesic modulation mechanism of tDCS.
