This paper develops mechanically stable multi-electrode neural probes for high-resolution, multichannel recordings in peripheral nerves, improving signal yield and performance compared to single-electrode probes.

This study investigates whether placebo expectations affect peripheral nociceptor activity using microneurography in humans, finding fiber-type specific changes in excitability.

The paper identifies OSMR and SST as molecular markers for human dermal sleeping nociceptors, providing new therapeutic targets for neuropathic pain.

This paper develops a hybrid model for spike sorting in C-fiber microneurography, achieving better F1-scores and fewer false positives than Spike2 software.

The paper evaluates supervised spike sorting for noisy single-electrode recordings from human C-nociceptors, finding raw signal features outperform complex methods and recommending tailored approaches.

This paper introduces a computational model to predict conduction velocity changes in unmyelinated axons using memory-based mechanisms, showing improved efficiency compared to Hodgkin-Huxley models.

This review examines spontaneous activity in peripheral sensory nerves in neuropathic pain, finding broad agreement on its presence but highlighting variability and uncertainty due to methodological differences.
