TLDR
Empirical research documents the neural processes that distinguish affective from sensory pain dimensions, link emotion and pain, and generate central nervous system pain sensitization; and social research shows the potential importance of emotional communication, empathy, attachment, and rejection.Abstract:
Pain is the most common symptom reported to health care providers, is a driving force of health care utilization and lost productivity, and exacts a substantial toll on the afflicted, their loved ones, and society in general. Pain is a prevalent symptom not only in primary medical care and specialty pain clinics, but also in mental health and substance dependence treatment settings. Thus, it is vital that psychologists remain abreast of recent theory and research that informs and directs case conceptualization, assessment, and intervention among patients experiencing pain.read more

Chronic stress, cortisol dysfunction, and pain: a psychoneuroendocrine rationale for stress management in pain rehabilitation.
Kara E. Hannibal,Mark D. Bishop +1 more
TL;DR: Given the parallel mechanisms underlying the physiologic effects of a maladaptive response to pain and non–pain-related stressors, physical therapists should consider screening for non-pain- related stress to facilitate treatment, prevent chronic disability, and improve quality of life.

Discordance between pain and radiographic severity in knee osteoarthritis: Findings from quantitative sensory testing of central sensitization
Patrick H. Finan,Luis F. Buenaver,S. Bounds,Shahid Hussain,R. Park,Uzma Haque,Claudia M. Campbell,Jennifer A. Haythornthwaite,Robert R. Edwards,Michael T. Smith +9 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that central sensitization in knee OA is especially apparent among patients with reports of high levels of clinical pain in the absence of moderate-to-severe radiographic evidence of pathologic changes of knee Oa.

The human amygdala and pain: Evidence from neuroimaging
Laura E. Simons,Laura E. Simons,Eric A. Moulton,Clas Linnman,Elizabeth Carpino,Lino Becerra,David Borsook +6 more
TL;DR: A coordinate‐based meta‐analysis within experimentally induced and clinical pain studies using an activation likelihood estimate analysis suggests several important directions for further research exploring the amygdala's role in pain processing.

Brain-to-brain coupling during handholding is associated with pain reduction
TL;DR: The findings indicate that hand-holding during pain administration increases brain-to-brain coupling in a network that mainly involves the central regions of the pain target and the right hemisphere of thepain observer, and indicates that brain- to- brain coupling may be involved in touch-related analgesia.

Pain and suicidality: insights from reward and addiction neuroscience.
TL;DR: It is suggested that interventions aimed at restoring the balance between the reward and anti-reward networks in patients with chronic pain may help decreasing their suicide risk.

Fear-avoidance and its consequences in chronic musculoskeletal pain: a state of the art
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the existing evidence for the mediating role of pain-related fear, and its immediate and long-term consequences in the initiation and maintenance of chronic pain disability.

Emotion regulation: Affective, cognitive, and social consequences
TL;DR: This review focuses on two commonly used strategies for down-regulating emotion, reappraisal and suppression, and concludes with a consideration of five important directions for future research on emotion regulation processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Empathy for Pain Involves the Affective but not Sensory Components of Pain
TL;DR: Only that part of the pain network associated with its affective qualities, but not its sensory qualities, mediates empathy, suggesting that the neural substrate for empathic experience does not involve the entire "pain matrix".

Does Rejection Hurt? An fMRI Study of Social Exclusion
Naomi I. Eisenberger,Naomi I. Eisenberger,Matthew D. Lieberman,Matthew D. Lieberman,Kipling D. Williams,Kipling D. Williams +5 more
TL;DR: A neuroimaging study examined the neural correlates of social exclusion and tested the hypothesis that the brain bases of social pain are similar to those of physical pain, suggesting that RVPFC regulates the distress of socialclusion by disrupting ACC activity.
