Attentional processes and cognitive performance during expectancy of painful galvanic stimulations: a high-resolution EEG study

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
Findings provide further evidence on the fact that attentional processes at the basis of cognition can be defended by the anticipation of pain, at least when the incoming painful stimuli are repetitive and predictable.

Pain-related catastrophizing in healthy women is associated with greater temporal summation of and reduced habituation to thermal pain.

TL;DR: These preliminary findings highlight the importance of coping in shaping individuals' responses to noxious stimuli, and suggest that interventions that decrease pain catastrophizing may reduce the burden of acute and chronic pain.

Interactions of Pain Intensity and Cognitive Load: The Brain Stays on Task

TL;DR: The notion that brain networks supporting pain perception and cognition can be simultaneously active is supported, as most pain-related or cognitive-related brain areas showed robust responses with little modulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Attentional modulation of the somatosensory mu rhythm.

TL;DR: How lateralized spatial attention modulates the ongoing somatosensory mu rhythm, and how such modulation impacts sensory information processing is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A re-examination of pain-cognition interactions: implications for neuroimaging

TL;DR: Seminowicz et al. as mentioned in this paper found that the analgesic effects of distraction may result from a form of divided attention, whereby competition for attentional and emotional resources in the brain affects the pain experience.
Journal ArticleDOI

EEG indices of tonic pain-related activity in the somatosensory cortices.

TL;DR: This study identified several factors that need to be controlled and/or isolated in order to successfully record EEG features that index pain-related activity in the somatosensory cortices.

Neurophysiological investigation of the basis of the fMRI signal

TL;DR: These findings suggest that the BOLD contrast mechanism reflects the input and intracortical processing of a given area rather than its spiking output, and that LFPs yield a better estimate of BOLD responses than the multi-unit responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Event-related EEG/MEG synchronization and desynchronization: basic principles.

TL;DR: Quantification of ERD/ERS in time and space is demonstrated on data from a number of movement experiments, whereby either the same or different locations on the scalp can display ERD and ERS simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual-task interference in simple tasks: Data and theory.

TL;DR: These conclusions challenge widely accepted ideas about attentional resources and probe reaction time methodologies and suggest new ways of thinking about continuous dual-task performance, effects of extraneous stimulation, and automaticity.

Pain affect encoded in human anterior cingulate but not somatosensory cortex.

TL;DR: These findings provide direct experimental evidence in humans linking frontal-lobe limbic activity with pain affect, as originally suggested by early clinical lesion studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional imaging of brain responses to pain. A review and meta-analysis (2000).

TL;DR: Data suggest that hemodynamic responses to pain reflect simultaneously the sensory, cognitive and affective dimensions of pain, and that the same structure may both respond to pain and participate in pain control.
