Journal ArticleDOI
Pain intensity processing within the human brain : a bilateral, distributed mechanism
TL;DR: Results confirm the existence of a highly distributed, bilateral supraspinal mechanism engaged in the processing of pain intensity and conserve pain intensity information across multiple, functionally distinct brain areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distributed processing of pain and vibration by the human brain.
Robert C. Coghill,J. D. Talbot,Alan C. Evans,E Meyer,Albert Gjedde,M. C. Bushnell,Gary H. Duncan +6 more
TL;DR: Comparisons of pain and vibrotactile stimulation revealed that both stimuli produced activation in similar regions of SI and SII, regions long thought to be involved in basic somatosensory processing, which reflects the complex nature of pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
The subjective experience of pain: Where expectations become reality
TL;DR: Results confirm that a mental representation of an impending sensory event can significantly shape neural processes that underlie the formulation of the actual sensory experience and provide insight as to how positive expectations diminish the severity of chronic disease states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural correlates of interindividual differences in the subjective experience of pain
TL;DR: It is found that highly sensitive individuals exhibited more frequent and more robust pain-induced activation of the primary somatosensory cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, and prefrontal cortex than did insensitive individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain Mechanisms Supporting the Modulation of Pain by Mindfulness Meditation
Fadel Zeidan,Katherine T. Martucci,Robert A. Kraft,Nakia S. Gordon,John G. McHaffie,Robert C. Coghill +5 more
TL;DR: Assessment of neural mechanisms by which mindfulness meditation influences pain in healthy human participants indicates that meditation engages multiple brain mechanisms that alter the construction of the subjectively available pain experience from afferent information.
