Since the second half of the twentieth century, intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG),
including both electrocorticography (ECoG) and stereo-electroencephalography (sEEG) …

Brain oscillations are increasingly the subject of electrophysiological studies probing their
role in the functioning and dysfunction of the human brain. In recent years this research area …

Individuals exhibit considerable and unpredictable variability in painful percepts in response
to the same nociceptive stimulus. Previous work has found neural responses that, while not …

Pain inhibition by additional somatosensory input is the rationale for the widespread use of
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) to relieve pain. Two main types of …

Leisure time physical activity can be a robust preventer of physical and mental illness. The
health benefits of exercise have been well-documented, including decreased risk for …

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is the preliminary stage of dementia, which may lead to
Alzheimer's disease (AD) in the elderly people. Therefore, early detection of MCI has the …

Ongoing fluctuations of intrinsic cortical networks determine the dynamic state of the brain,
and influence the perception of forthcoming sensory inputs. The functional state of these …

In this study, electroencephalography (EEG) was utilized to explore the neurophysiological
mechanisms of aerobic exercise-induced hypoalgesia (EIH) and provide a theoretical basis …

Meditation is an accessible mental practice associated with emotional regulation and well-
being. Loving-kindness meditation (LKM), a specific subtype of meditative practice, involves …

Intense radiant heat pulses concomitantly activate Aδ-and C-fiber skin nociceptors, and elicit
a typical double sensation: an initial Aδ-related pricking pain is followed by a C-related …
