Journal ArticleDOI

Pain Pathways and Nervous System Plasticity: Learning and Memory in Pain.

TL;DR: The chronification of pain can be conceptualized as activity-induced plasticity of the limbic-cortical circuitry resulting in reorganization of the neocortex.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy, safety, and tolerability of NGX-4010, capsaicin 8% patch, in an open-label study of patients with peripheral neuropathic pain.
