Led by Ketan and in collaboration with @jose_biurrun. We tested the role of verbal support on the development of mechanical hypersensitivity, pinprick evoked potentials (PEPs), theta/beta ratio and cortisol. We found significant effects on pinprick ratings on the ultralate PEP
The Journal of Pain@TheJournal_Pain24 Oct 2024
Original: Ketan Jaltare (@KU_Leuven), Dr. @DianaTorta et al. showed that, in women, verbal support during intense pain leading to hypersensitivity is effective on some behavioral outcomes, and no evidence was found for the role of stress Full: jpain.org/article/S1526-5900…
