Yes, but by torturing rats with electrodes...
Some interesting ideas, and definitely worth studying, but I'm not convinced the issue of pain sensation is just in the muscle spindles...
While cerebral vessels are structurally different (thinner walled, lack external elastic lamina and thus have a lower range of contractile...
The alternative is to consider the "validity test" themselves may lack specificity.
My father has been talking about this for years (he lives in an inner-city apartment). They need to release a product already!

Ear defenders merely block the sound passively and aren't particularly effective for low frequency sound. Noise cancelling headphones actively...
The problem with all this discussion about "asymptomatic" transmission is they aren't actually asymptomatic. Such people often do have symptoms,...
Most ME or CFS patients weren't ready to accept such a diagnosis after experiencing similar patterns of illness for 3-4 months and the CFS...
Superordinate Theme: researcher confirmation bias. Note strong participation bias (these findings are not generalisable to all patients):
It depends on what you count as a study - there have been methods/review papers, case studies, clinical data studies and case-control studies. If...
Hah. It's surprising when neurologists talk about "effort" in this way, yet they have no idea what it is. I mean there is over 150 years of...
By "looking inward", does that mean they are going to do experiments to study scientists themselves?
This is highly likely...
The post-COVID syndrome symptoms themselves aren't well characterised as reported in the media. I propose that light and sound sensitivity are...
The mistake that Stokes/Edwards makes is the assumption that central and peripheral aspects aren't coupled together. We cannot assume that the...
Separate names with a comma.
