Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to investigate how different painful stimuli are processed and modulated in the nervous system. In various pain conditions, including low back pain, often no specific source can be identified as the cause of the pain. Scientific findings point towards a possible involvement of sensitization processes in the central nervous system (spinal cord and brain) that can contribute to the development and persistence of chronic pain. There is a need for reliable and well established experimental methods to better investigate and understand these processes. Frequently used methods comprise the application of thermal, mechanical or electrical stimulations. These modalities are processed in different parts of the nervous system, each allowing its own conclusions. This can be an advantage, but it also poses a challenge regarding comparability and generalizability of obtained results.
This study aims to apply and compare various experimental methods in people without and people with low back pain and shed light on the methodological differences. In the future, this could enable better identification and characterization of sensitization processes in the nervous system and build the basis for individually adapted, mechanism-targeted treatments with better patient outcomes.
