Predictive Dynamics of Human Pain Perception
نویسندگان
چکیده
While the static magnitude of thermal pain perception has been shown to follow a power-law function of the temperature, its dynamical features have been largely overlooked. Due to the slow temporal experience of pain, multiple studies now show that the time evolution of its magnitude can be captured with continuous online ratings. Here we use such ratings to model quantitatively the temporal dynamics of thermal pain perception. We show that a differential equation captures the details of the temporal evolution in pain ratings in individual subjects for different stimulus pattern complexities, and also demonstrates strong predictive power to infer pain ratings, including readouts based only on brain functional images.

Background: In the “treating to target” strategy to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management, “cognitive” beyond “physical” measures allow a more comprehensive assessment. This study reports a predictive analysis of patient properties on Disease Activity, and the degree to which these predictions could be uniquely attributable to Illness perception (IP), pain, and sex differences.

متن کاملSparse Regression Models of Pain Perception
Discovering brain mechanisms underlying pain perception remains a challenging neuroscientific problem with important practical applications, such as developing better treatments for chronic pain. Herein, we focus on statistical analysis of functional MRI (fMRI) data associated with pain stimuli. While the traditional mass-univariate GLM [8] analysis of pain-related brain activation can miss pot...
