Perceptual correlates of homosynaptic long-term potentiation in human nociceptive pathways: a replication study

Perceptual correlates of homosynaptic long-term potentiation in human nociceptive pathways: a replication study

Animal studies have shown that high-frequency stimulation (HFS) of peripheral C-fibres induces long-term potentiation (LTP) within spinal nociceptive pathways. The aim of this replication study was to assess if a perceptual correlate of LTP can be observed in humans. In 20 healthy volunteers, we app...
