Abnormalities of somatosensory perception in patients with painful osteoarthritis normalize following successful treatmentE Kosek
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Karolinska Institute Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 4:229-38. 2000..006) compared to values prior to surgery. No statistically significant differences between the groups were seen following surgery, indicating that the sensibility changes had been maintained by chronic nociceptive pain...
Perceptual integration of intramuscular electrical stimulation in the focal and the referred pain area in healthy humansEva Kosek
Department of Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institute Hospital, S 171 77 Stockholm, Sweden
Pain 105:125-31. 2003..The fact that conditioning stimulation in m. infraspinatus generated referred pain in the dorsolateral upper arm, but not vice versa suggests that the divergence of the input is not reciprocally arranged...
Segmental and plurisegmental modulation of pressure pain thresholds during static muscle contractions in healthy individualsEva Kosek
Department of Surgical Sciences, Section of Clinical Pain Research, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 7:251-8. 2003..Contraction of MI, but not of MQF, gave rise to an additional activation of unilateral segmental antinociceptive effects...
The influence of experimental pain intensity in the local and referred pain area on somatosensory perception in the area of referred painEva Kosek
Section of Clinical Pain Research, Department Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institute Hospital, S 171 77 Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 6:413-25. 2002..We found no influence of pain intensity on somatosensory thresholds restricted to the referred pain area and light touch was the only affected modality in the referred pain area only...
Lack of pressure pain modulation by heterotopic noxious conditioning stimulation in patients with painful osteoarthritis before, but not following, surgical pain reliefE Kosek
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Karolinska Institute Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden
Pain 88:69-78. 2000..Normal pressure pain modulation induced by HNCS was seen when patients were re-assessed in a pain-free state following surgery, indicating that the dysfunction of DNIC had been maintained by chronic nociceptive pain...
Quantitative and qualitative perceptual analysis of cold dysesthesia and hyperalgesia in fibromyalgiaBirgitta Berglund
Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet and Department of Psychology, Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden
Pain 96:177-87. 2002..Particularly, the aberrations established in all patients for perceived quality and intensity in the cold sensory channel may be an additional diagnostic criterion...
Somatosensory perception and function of diffuse noxious inhibitory controls (DNIC) in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritisAnn Sofie Leffler
Department of Surgical Sciences, Section of Clinical Pain Research, Karolinska Hospital Institutet, Stockholm, S 171 76, Sweden
Eur J Pain 6:161-76. 2002..The response to HNCS was similar in both RA groups and controls, indicating preserved function of DNIC-related mechanisms...
Somatosensory perception in a remote pain-free area and function of diffuse noxious inhibitory controls (DNIC) in patients suffering from long-term trapezius myalgiaAnn Sofie Leffler
Department of Surgical Sciences, Section of Clinical Pain Research, Karolinska Hospital Institutet, S 171 76 Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 6:149-59. 2002..Whether altered central somatosensory processing at rest may indicate a predisposition for further spread of pain is at present unclear...
Somatosensory perception in patients suffering from long-term trapezius myalgia at the site overlying the most painful part of the muscle and in an area of pain referralAnn Sofie Leffler
Department of Surgical Sciences, Section of Clinical Pain Research, Karolinska Hospital Institutet, S 171 76 Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 7:267-76. 2003..01). No differences were found in the outcome of thermal testing. These findings suggest altered central processing of somatosensory input from the area of referred pain in patients with trapezius myalgia...
[When pain goes its own ways. Mechanism-based diagnostics would make the correct choice of treatment for patients with chronic pain easier]Eva Kosek
Rehabiliteringsmedicinska kliniken, Karolinska sjukhuset/institutet, Stockholm
Lakartidningen 100:1600-2. 2003
Decreased muscle blood flow in fibromyalgia patients during standardised muscle exercise: a contrast media enhanced colour Doppler studyAnders Elvin
ISS Health Care, Sabbatsberg, Radiology Department, 113 82 Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 10:137-44. 2006..US with contrast can be a new valuable approach to assess muscle perfusion in pain patients during standardised exercise...
The effects of static muscular contraction on blood pressure, heart rate, pain ratings and pressure pain thresholds in healthy individuals and patients with fibromyalgiaDiana Kadetoff
Section of Clinical Pain Research, Department of Surgical Sciences, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 11:39-47. 2007..No exercise related change in PPTs was seen in either group, most likely due to insufficient exercise intensity, but the contraction induced pain was more pronounced in the FM patients...
Mechanisms of pain referral in patients with whiplash-associated disorderEva Kosek
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute, MR Center N8 00, Karolinska University Hospital, 171 76 Stockholm, Sweden
Eur J Pain 12:650-60. 2008....
