Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative sensory testing in the German Research Network on Neuropathic Pain (DFNS): Standardized protocol and reference values
Roman Rolke,Ralf Baron,Christoph Maier,Thomas R. Tölle,Rolf-Detlef Treede,Antje Beyer,Andreas Binder,Niels Birbaumer,Frank Birklein,I. C. Bötefür,S. Braune,Herta Flor,Volker Huge,R. Klug,G. B. Landwehrmeyer,Walter Magerl,Christian Maihöfner,C. Rolko,C. Schaub,Andrea Scherens,Till Sprenger,Michael Valet,B. Wasserka +22 more
TL;DR: Application of this standardized QST protocol in patients and human surrogate models will allow to infer underlying mechanisms from somatosensory phenotypes as well as judge plus or minus signs in patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phantom-limb pain as a perceptual correlate of cortical reorganization following arm amputation
Herta Flor,Thomas Elbert,Stefan Knecht,Christian Wienbruch,Christo Pantev,Niels Birbaumer,Wolfgang Larbig,Edward Taub +7 more
TL;DR: A very strong direct relationship is reported between the amount of cortical reorganization and the magnitude of phantom limb pain (but not non-painful phantom phenomena) experienced after arm amputation, indicating that phantom-limb pain is related to, and may be a consequence of, plastic changes in primary somatosensory cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
A spelling device for the paralysed
Niels Birbaumer,N. Ghanayim,Thilo Hinterberger,Iver H. Iversen,Boris Kotchoubey,Andrea Kübler,J. Perelmouter,Edward Taub,Herta Flor +8 more
TL;DR: A new means of communication for the completely paralysed that uses slow cortical potentials of the electro-encephalogram to drive an electronic spelling device is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The revised International Association for the Study of Pain definition of pain: concepts, challenges, and compromises.
Srinivasa N. Raja,Daniel B. Carr,Milton Cohen,Nanna B. Finnerup,Nanna B. Finnerup,Herta Flor,Stephen J. Gibson,Francis J. Keefe,Jeffrey S. Mogil,Matthias Ringkamp,Kathleen A. Sluka,Xue-Jun Song,Bonnie Stevens,Mark D. Sullivan,Perri R. Tutelman,Takahiro Ushida,Kyle Vader +16 more
TL;DR: This review provides a synopsis of the critical concepts, the analysis of comments from the IASP membership and public, and the committee's final recommendations for revisions to the definition and notes, which were discussed over a 2-year period.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of multidisciplinary pain treatment centers: a meta-analytic review.
TL;DR: The results tend to support the efficacy of multidisciplinary pain treatment; however, these results must be interpreted cautiously as the quality of the study designs and study descriptions is marginal.
