A neural mechanism of direct and observational conditioning for placebo and nocebo responses [PDF]
Classical theories suggest placebo analgesia and nocebo hyperalgesia are based on expectation and conditioned experience. Whereas the neural mechanism of how expectation modulates placebo and nocebo effects during pain anticipation have been extensively studied, little is known about how experience may change brain networks to produce placebo and ...

Double‐Blind Placebo Challenge Confirmation of Diphenhydramine Allergy
ABSTRACT Diphenhydramine, a first‐generation H1–antihistamine commonly used for allergic symptom relief and infusion premedication, rarely causes true systemic hypersensitivity. When suspected reactions are mild and subjective—particularly in anxious patients—objective confirmation is essential.

Can a Brief Relaxation Exercise Modulate Placebo or Nocebo Effects in a Visceral Pain Model?
Translational research aiming to elucidate mediators and moderators of placebo and nocebo effects is highly relevant. This experimental study tested effects of a brief progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) exercise, designed to alter psychobiological ...

ABSTRACT Background Pain‐related autonomic responses are increased after experimentally‐induced secondary mechanical hyperalgesia (SMH), as well as in a variety of chronic pain cohorts. In this state of sensitization, negative expectations further amplify these enhanced responses.

Classical Conditioning as a Distinct Mechanism of Placebo Effects
Classical conditioning was suggested as a mechanism of placebo effects in the 1950s. It was then challenged by response expectancy theory, which proposed that classical conditioning is just one of the means by which expectancies are acquired and changed.
