somatosensory system. This syndrome results from maladaptive changes in injured sensory
neurons and along the entire nociceptive pathway within the central nervous system. It is

treatments, different models have been developed in rodents. These models derive from
known etiologies, thus reproducing peripheral nerve injuries, central injuries, and metabolic …
