- Medicine
- Arthritis and rheumatism
- 1 May 2002
OBJECTIVE
To use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to evaluate the pattern of cerebral activation during the application of painful pressure and determine whether this pattern is augmented… Expand

- Chemistry, Medicine
- Pain
- 1 February 1977
&NA; Psychophysical experiments were carried out on 6 human subjects to determine how first and second pain are influenced by peripheral receptor mechanisms and by central nervous system inhibitory… Expand
Evidence of augmented central pain processing in idiopathic chronic low back pain.
- T. Giesecke, R. Gracely, +4 authors D. Clauw
- Medicine
- Arthritis and rheumatism
- 1 February 2004
OBJECTIVE
For many individuals with chronic low back pain (CLBP), there is no identifiable cause. In other idiopathic chronic pain conditions, sensory testing and functional magnetic resonance… Expand

- Rolf-Detlef Treede, D. Kenshalo, R. Gracely, A. Jones
- Psychology, Medicine
- PAIN
- 1 February 1999
Anatomical and physiological studies in animals, as well as functional imaging studies in humans have shown that multiple cortical areas are activated by painful stimuli. The view that pain is… Expand

- 1 October 2003
OBJECTIVE
Although the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria for fibromyalgia are used to identify individuals with both widespread pain and tenderness, individuals who meet these criteria… Expand

- Neurology
- 1 September 1988
In a double-blind, randomized, crossover study, 58 patients with postherpetic neuralgia received 6-week courses of amitriptyline, 12.5 to 150 mg/d; lorazepam, 0.5 to 6 mg/d; or lactose placebo. Doses… Expand

- Psychology, Medicine
- Pain
- 1 June 1978
&NA; The results of two experiments show that ratio scales of sensory and affective verbal pain descriptors are valid, reliable and objective. In the first experiment, 16 subjects rated 15 sensory… Expand
