Quantitative sensory testing (QST) is a psychophysical method used to quantify
somatosensory function in response to controlled stimuli in healthy subjects and patients …

Neuropathic pain is accompanied by both positive and negative sensory signs. To explore
the spectrum of sensory abnormalities, 1236 patients with a clinical diagnosis of neuropathic …

Clinical use of quantitative sensory testing (QST) requires standardization. The German
research network on neuropathic pain (DFNS) solves this problem by defining reference …

OBJECTIVE: Measurement of thermal pain thresholds is an essential part of quantitative
sensory testing (QST). However, databases of QST show limitations due to large inter …

Aims Sensory neuropathy is central to the development of painful neuropathy, and foot
ulceration in patients with diabetes. Currently, available QST devices take considerable time …

This study investigated the relationship of thermal pain testing from three types of
quantitative sensory testing (ie, supra-threshold stimulus response scaling, temporal …

Objective. The primary aim of this study was to investigate the associations between
standardized values of thermal sensory perception and standardized scores of clinical pain …

Following peripheral nerve injury sensory loss is taken as a sign of denervation. However,
based on reports of improved sensitivity following relief of pain it has been suggested that a …

This study's main purpose was to examine the sensitivity estimates obtained from scaling
and discrimination approaches for nociception assessment in healthy individuals. This …

Spinal disorders are associated with neurological symptoms to a very variable extent
depending on the underlying pathology. In cervical myelopathy and lumbar spinal canal …
