Nociplastic Pain in Endometriosis: A Scoping Review [PDF]
Endometriosis is an inflammatory chronic condition associated with nociceptive, neuropathic, and nociplastic pain. Central sensitization (CS) is the primary nociplastic pain mechanism. However, there are currently no standardized methods for detecting CS or nociplastic pain. This review aims to identify available tools for characterizing CS/nociplastic

Myofascial Pain Syndrome: A Nociceptive Condition Comorbid with Neuropathic or Nociplastic Pain [PDF]
Myofascial pain syndrome is featured by the presence of myofascial trigger points (TrPs). Whether TrPs are primary or secondary phenomena or if they relate to central or peripheral nervous system disorders is controversial. Referred pain, a cardinal sign

Nociplastic Pain: A Critical Paradigm for Multidisciplinary Recognition and Management [PDF]
Our understanding of chronic pain has evolved significantly, shifting from a focus on peripheral damage to recognizing the central mechanisms underlying pain perception. This perspective article explores the concept of nociplastic pain, a term introduced

Nociplastic Pain in Gynecology: Understanding This Painful Experience in Women
The term “nociplastic pain” was introduced in 2017 by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) to describe pain that results from impaired nociception despite no clear evidence of actual or potential tissue damage causing activation of peripheral nociceptors or evidence of disease or lesion of the somatosensory system causing the pain.

Pathophysiology of Nociplastic Pain
Nociplastic pain represents a category of pain not directly linked to tissue damage or neuropathic conditions. It involves abnormal processing of pain signals by the central nervous system, often leading to symptoms like allodynia and hyperalgesia.

The concept of nociplastic pain—where to from here?
Abstract Nociplastic pain, a third mechanistic pain descriptor in addition to nociceptive and neuropathic pain, was adopted in 2017 by the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP). It is defined as “pain that arises from altered nociception” not fully explained by nociceptive or neuropathic pain mechanisms.

Male-specific mechanisms in a murine model of nociplastic pain [PDF]
In order to address how acute nociceptive pain can transition to nociplastic pain, we developed a murine model in which acute injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity was prolonged beyond its normal resolution time following postinjury stimulation at ...
