Peripheral direct current suppresses physiologically evoked nociceptive responses at the spinal cord in rodent models of pain

This study shows direct current stimulation suppresses nociceptive responses in rodent pain models, suggesting broader clinical applications for chronic pain treatment.

Novel neural signal features permit robust machine-learning of natural tactile- and proprioception-dominated dorsal column nuclei signals

The paper identifies neural signal features that improve decoding of somatosensory stimuli from dorsal column nuclei in rats, showing better generalisation for proprioception-dominated signals.

Red-light (670 nm) therapy reduces mechanical sensitivity and neuronal cell death, and alters glial responses following spinal cord injury in rats
