Moving differently in pain: a new theory to explain the adaptation to pain
People move differently in pain. Although this statement is unquestioned, the underlying
mechanisms are surprisingly poorly understood. Existing theories are relatively simplistic …

Racial bias reduces empathic sensorimotor resonance with other-race pain
A Avenanti, A Sirigu, SM Aglioti - Current biology, 2010 - cell.com
Although social psychology studies suggest that racism often manifests itself as a lack of

Is motor cortical excitability altered in people with chronic pain? A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background Chronic pain is characterised by maladaptive neuroplasticity in many systems,
including the motor system. There is evidence that patients with chronic pain demonstrate …

Stimulus-driven modulation of motor-evoked potentials during observation of others' pain
Empathy may allow interindividual sharing not only of emotions (eg, joy, sadness, disgust)
but also of sensations (eg, touch, itching, pain). Although empathy for pain may rely upon …

The role of motor learning and neuroplasticity in designing rehabilitation approaches for musculoskeletal pain disorders
The extent of cortical neuroplastic changes has been shown to be a key neurophysiological
feature that correlates with the level of functional recovery. Therefore, rehabilitation efforts …
