Exercise therapy is considered the best evidence-based approach for managing chronic
neck pain. However, the implementation of exercise therapy presents several challenges …

This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the evidence for altered central pain
processing in people with nontraumatic neck pain and the relationship among central pain …

Rationale: Pain and depression, which tend to occur simultaneously and share some
common neural circuits and neurotransmitters, are highly prevalent complication in patients …

Processing spatially distributed nociceptive information is critical for survival. The
conditioned pain modulation (CPM) response has become a common psychophysical test to …

The descending pain modulatory system in humans is commonly investigated using
conditioned pain modulation (CPM). Whilst variability in CPM efficiency, ie, inhibition and …

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the pain-sensory profile of patients
with whiplash-associated disorders (WADs) prior and post 2 weeks of standardized …

Chronic pain is known to alter the brain's network dynamics. These dynamics are often
demonstrated by identifying alterations in the brain network topology. A common approach …

Background Structural changes in the peripheral nerve system in neuropathic states alter
sensory capacity of the affected area, thus biasing results of conditioned pain modulation …

Previous studies of white matter organization in sensorimotor tracts in developmental
coordination disorder (DCD) have adopted diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), a method unable …

Abstract Changes in brain morphology are hypothesized to be an underlying process that
drive the widespread pain and motor impairment in patients with chronic neck pain …
