Placebo analgesia effects across central nervous system diseases: what do we know and where do we need to go?

open access: yesPAIN Reports, 2019
. Placebo effects are well established in healthy participants experiencing experimental or acute pain. Yet, little is known about the mechanisms of placebo analgesia effects in patients with chronic pain and even less is known in patients suffering from

Postoperative Pain Treatment After Pancreatic Surgery: A Systematic Review With Meta-Analyses and Trial Sequential Analyses. [PDF]

open access: yesEur J Pain
ABSTRACT Background Major pancreatic surgery is associated with significant postoperative pain that impairs early mobilisation and recovery. ERAS guidelines for pancreaticoduodenectomy recommend multimodal opioid‐sparing analgesia, with a strong recommendation for epidural analgesia and continuous wound infiltration as an alternative.

Placebo analgesia: understanding the mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesPain Management, 2015
Expectations of pain relief drive placebo analgesia. Understanding how expectations of improvement trigger distinct biological systems to shape therapeutic analgesic outcomes has been the focus of recent pharmacologic and neuroimaging studies in the field of pain. Recent findings indicate that placebo effects can imitate the actions of real painkillers

Is placebo analgesia for heat pain a sensory effect? An exploratory study on minimizing the influence of response bias

open access: yesNeurobiology of Pain, 2019
We explored the ongoing question of whether placebo analgesia alters afferent nociceptive processing in a novel paradigm designed to minimize the role of response bias in placebo measurement.

Another’s pain in my brain: No evidence that placebo analgesia affects the sensory-discriminative component in empathy for pain

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
The shared representations account of empathy suggests that sharing other people’s emotions relies on neural processes similar to those engaged when directly experiencing such emotions.

Experimental placebo analgesia changes resting-state alpha oscillations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The lack of clear understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic pain could explain why we currently have only a few effective treatments. Understanding how pain relief is realised during placebo analgesia could help develop improved treatments for ...

Placebo Analgesia: A Predictive Coding Perspective [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2014
This Perspective reviews recent findings in placebo hypoalgesia and provides a conceptual account of how expectations and experience can lead to placebo hypoalgesia. In particular, we put forward the idea that the ascending and the descending pain system resembles a recurrent system that allows for the implementation of predictive coding-meaning that ...

Direct evidence for spinal cord involvement in placebo analgesia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Placebo analgesia is a prime example of the impact that psychological factors have on pain perception. We used functional magnetic resonance imaging of the human spinal cord to test the hypothesis that placebo analgesia results in a reduction of ...
