What Color is My Arm? Changes in Skin Color of an Embodied Virtual Arm Modulates Pain Threshold

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
It has been demonstrated that visual inputs can modulate pain. However, the influence of skin color on pain perception is unknown. Red skin is associated to inflamed, hot and more sensitive skin, while blue is associated to cyanotic, cold skin.

Effect of breed on thermal pain sensitivity in dogs : A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A problem in assessing pain sensitivity in animals is the variability among individuals within a species. Thermal nociceptive threshold (TNT) testing is used to measure pain sensitivity in animals. However, little research has been done on within species

Temporal Trends in and Associations With Nonsteroidal Anti‐inflammatory Drug Prescription in Adult and Pediatric Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Recent inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment guidelines have recommended against nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drug (NSAID) use despite prevalent musculoskeletal symptoms and opioid overuse in this population. Given the discordance between changing national guidelines and potential clinical utility, we sought to assess national temporal
