Pain is an integrative phenomenon that results from dynamic interactions between sensory
and contextual (ie, cognitive, emotional, and motivational) processes. In the brain the …

Neural oscillations play an important role in the integration and segregation of brain regions
that are important for brain functions, including pain. Disturbances in oscillatory activity are …

Pain occurs in time. In naturalistic settings, pain perception is sometimes stable but often
varies in intensity and quality over the course of seconds, minutes, and days. A principal aim …

Pain-induced gamma-band oscillations (GBOs) are one of the most promising biomarkers of
the pain experience. Although GBOs reliably encode pain perception across different …

Injuries of various types occur commonly in the lives of humans and other animals and lead
to a pattern of persistent pain and recuperative behaviour that allows safe and effective …

To unravel the complexity of the neuropathic pain experience, researchers have tried to
identify reliable pain signatures (biomarkers) using electroencephalography (EEG) and skin …

Pain emerges from the integration of sensory information about threats and contextual
information such as an individual's expectations. However, how sensory and contextual …

Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience. Understanding the neural
mechanisms of acute and chronic pain and the brain changes affecting pain factors is …

Pain is a complex multidimensional experience encompassing sensory-discriminative,
affective-motivational and cognitive-emotional components mediated by different neural …

In the context of a generative model, such as predictive coding, pain and heat perception
can be construed as the integration of expectation and input with their difference denoted as …
