• Psychophysical or spinal reflex measures when assessing conditioned pain modulation? 

      Lie, Marie; Petriu, Elena; Matre, Dagfinn; Hansson, Per; Andersen, Ole Kæseler; Zwart, John-Anker; Nilsen, Kristian Bernhard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Background Assessing conditioning pain modulation (CPM) with spinal reflex measures may produce more objective and stable CPM effects than using psychophysical measures. The aim of the study was to compare the CPM effect ...
    • Sleep restriction does not potentiate nocebo‐induced changes in pain and cortical potentials 

      Ree, Anbjørn; Nilsen, Kristian Bernhard; Knardahl, Stein; Sand, Trond; Matre, Dagfinn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Background: The increased pain sensitivity following reduced sleep may be related to changes in cortical processing of nociceptive stimuli. Expectations shape pain perception and can inhibit (placebo) or enhance (nocebo) ...
