Distinct contributions of post-traumatic stress and working memory to affective and sensory dimensions of chronic pain, with pain modulation as a shared mechanism

This study identifies distinct and shared contributions of post-traumatic stress, working memory, and pain modulation to chronic pain dimensions using clinical and neuroimaging data.

Post-traumatic stress symptoms are associated with altered cognitive circuits and threat pathways in chronic pain

This study investigates how post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) affect brain networks related to working memory and threat processing in chronic pain patients, finding altered prefrontal and brainstem connectivity linked to depression and pain catastrophizing.
