In 15 patients with painful peripheral neuropathy and dynamic mechanical allodynia, the influence of spontaneous ongoing neuropathic pain on pain sensitivity in a remote pain-free area was examined, as was the influence of ischemia-induced heterotopic noxious conditioning stimulation (HNCS) on the intensity of ongoing pain and brush-evoked allodynia. In addition, the modulating effect of HNCS on pain...
The aim of the study was to investigate the perceptual integration of simultaneous stimulation in a focal and a referred pain area to investigate whether referred pain is mainly caused by facilitation of on-going input from the referred pain area by stimulation in the focal pain area or if referred pain is a consequence of misinterpretation of the origin of inputs from the focal pain area. Pain was...
This study aimed at evaluating the influence of submaximal isometric contraction on pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) in 14 fibromyalgia (FM) patients and 14 healthy volunteers, before and after skin hypoesthesia. PPTs were determined with pressure algometry over m. quadriceps femoris before, during and following an isometric contraction. Maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) was assessed using a computerized...
This study was aimed at comparing pressure pain sensibility in different tissues in fibromyalgia patients. Pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) were assessed in 16 fibromyalgia (FM) patients bilaterally at the bony part of epicondylus lateralis humeri, at the belly of m. extensor carpi ulnaris and at m. brachioradialis where the radial nerve branches pass underneath. Following a double-blind design, either...
