3. 2. Neuropathic pain : somatosensory functions related to spontaneous ongoing pain, mechanical allodynia and pain relief

   Författare :Åsa Landerholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Peripheral neuropathic pain; Central post stroke pain; Dynamic mechanical allodynia; Static mechanical allodynia; Dysesthesia; Quantitative sensory testing; Spinal cord stimulation.;

4. 3. On the function endogenous pain controlling systems in healthy subjects and patients with peripheral or central neuropathic pain

   Författare :Birgitta Tuveson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Painful peripheral neuropathy; Central post-stroke pain; Dynamic mechanical allodynia; Endogenous pain modulation; Heterotopic noxious conditioning stimulation; Quantitative sensory testing; Ondansetron;

   Sammanfattning : Introduction and aim: Activity in the nociceptive system is modulated by descending inhibitory and facilitatory supraspinal endogenous control. Altered balance between inhibition and facilitation has been suggested to at least partly explain the maintenance of some persistent pain conditions. LÄS MER

   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ongoing pain; tactile and thermal dys function; perceived intensity; Master Scaling; perceived quality; Känsel; Smärta; fysiologisk psykologi; Fibromyalgi; psykologi; Psychology;

   Sammanfattning : The general aim of the present thesis is to examine tactile and thermal perceptual (dys)function by quantitative and qualitative tests of patients with neuropathic pain or fibromyalgia, and to compare results with those of healthy persons. A specific aim is to provide individual data for diagnostic purposes, specific to touch, cold, and warmth (profiles). LÄS MER
