This study examines how individual cortical connectivity dynamics relate to fluctuating pain intensity in chronic pain patients, finding unique patterns that challenge the notion of a common neuronal core.

The paper identifies cyclic changes in intrinsic brain networks during the migraine cycle using fMRI, showing connectivity peaks before headaches and drops during attacks.

The paper examines individual variability in gamma oscillations during pain and touch processing, finding reproducible patterns within participants but diverse responses across individuals.

The paper analyzes fMRI data to dissociate objective and subjective aspects of pain processing by examining dynamic network activity during continuous heat pain exposure.

The paper analyzes how intrinsic brain network activity fluctuates with pain intensity in chronic pain patients using fMRI and identifies specific network changes associated with different pain states.

The paper examines functional connectivity changes across the migraine cycle, finding increased connectivity in the prodromal phase and its collapse during headache, suggesting a mechanism for normalizing cortical processing.

The paper investigates whether affective or cognitive processes drive cortical encoding of pain, finding a stronger link between cortical data and unpleasantness ratings than intensity ratings.

This paper introduces a novel method to remove muscle artefacts from EEG data, improving gamma band signal quality by preserving task-relevant cortical activity.

This study investigates brain activity changes during migraine cycles, finding cyclic perfusion in the limbic circuit and hypothalamic connectivity shifts, suggesting the hypothalamus drives migraine attacks by losing control over the limbic system.

The paper identifies individual cortical signatures of pain in chronic pain patients using fMRI and linear mixed effects models, revealing unique patterns of pain encoding in specific brain regions.

The paper shows that effective pain attenuation strategies are linked to increased whole brain functional connectivity and specific white matter integrity.
