Very grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the pain physiology chapter of this textbook 🙂 Fingers crossed first year students will now understand the difference between nociception and pain!

Using machine learning, we explored how pain mechanistic domains form networks. These networks explain 50-80% of pain variability—significantly better than any of our previous analyses. 🤓🔬journals.lww.com/pain/abstra…

What proportion of patients report long-term pain after total hip or knee replacement for osteoarthritis? A systematic review of prospective studies in unselected patients bmjopen.bmj.com/content/bmjo…
long-term pain ranged from about 7% to 23% after hip and 10% to 34% after TKA

Our latest @PAINthejournal paper shows that hamstring pain ENHANCED proprioceptive processing but IMPAIRED peripersonal spatial processing. Interesting implications for reinjury risk and rehabilitation 🦿🧠

Our latest paper @TheJournal_Pain shows that unilateral hamstring pain induces bilateral cortical reorganisation. Corticomotor facilitation ➡️ mechanical sensitivity and decreased function. Read on below! 🧠🦵 @SimonJSummers @ariane_suhood @tendonpain @Tom_Astill @davidopar
Original: @ariane_suhood (@BrainStARLab) and team unveil patterns of corticomotor reorganization that may contribute to functional deficits following acute hamstring injury

Increased rates of participation in running, regardless of its dose, would probably lead to substantial improvements in population health and longevity.
