    Sammanfattning : Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain syndrome characterized by generalized pain, tenderness, disturbed sleep and pronounced fatigue. The pathophysiology is unknown but peripheral mechanisms (i.e., muscle ischemia) as well as central mechanisms (dysfunction in endogenous pain modulation) have been implicated. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Chronic pain affects 20 % of the global population, causes suffering, is difficult to treat, and constitutes a large economic burden for society. So far, the characterization of molecular mechanisms of chronic pain-like behaviors in animal models has not translated into effective treatments. LÄS MER
