Temporal structure of brain oscillations predicts learned nocebo responses to pain

Scientific Reports, 2021
This study aimed to identify electrophysiological correlates of nocebo-augmented pain. Nocebo hyperalgesia (i.e., increases in perceived pain resulting from negative expectations) has been found to impact how healthy and patient populations experience ...

A randomized pharmacological fMRI trial investigating d-cycloserine and brain plasticity mechanisms in learned pain responses

Scientific Reports, 2022
Learning and negative outcome expectations can increase pain sensitivity, a phenomenon known as nocebo hyperalgesia. Here, we examined how a targeted pharmacological manipulation of learning would impact nocebo responses and their brain correlates ...

How Negative Experience Influences the Brain: A Comprehensive Review of the Neurobiological Underpinnings of Nocebo Hyperalgesia

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
This comprehensive review summarizes and interprets the neurobiological correlates of nocebo hyperalgesia in healthy humans. Nocebo hyperalgesia refers to increased pain sensitivity resulting from negative experiences and is thought to be an important ...

No evidence that attentional bias towards pain-related words is associated with verbally induced nocebo hyperalgesia: a dot-probe study

PAIN Reports, 2021
. Introduction:. Placebo and nocebo effects in pain are well documented. One leading explanation is that instructions indicating that pain will either increase or decrease after receipt of a treatment give rise to expectations for increased or decreased ...

Nocebo effects in the treatment of endometriosis [PDF]

Reproduction and Fertility, 2021
The current approach to treating endometriosis is often inadequate or intolerable for many patients. Until more effective therapies are available, we should aim to maximize the effectiveness of our current options. Optimization may be possible by reducing nocebo effects, which are the negative therapeutic effects not directly caused by a treatment ...

Counterconditioning as Treatment to Reduce Nocebo Effects in Persistent Physical Symptoms: Treatment Protocol and Study Design

Frontiers in Psychology, 2022
Persistent physical symptoms have a high prevalence and a large impact for patients and society. To date, treatment effects for these symptoms are often limited.

Can contagious itch be affected by positive and negative suggestions?

Experimental Dermatology, Volume 31, Issue 12, Page 1853-1862, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Contagious itch can be evoked by observing people scratching. Verbal suggestions about to‐be‐received itch can influence itch intensity, as shown by placebo research, but it is unknown whether this extends to contagious itch. The current study aimed to replicate prior findings that listening to scratching and rubbing sounds elicits contagious ...
