Table 4.
Pain Phenotype and Severity | Connectivity Pattern Alterations |
---|---|
↑ Neuropathic pain intensity | ↓ Intralimbic and limbostriatal |
↑ Nociceptive pain intensity | ↓ Thalamocortical and Thalamolimbic |
↑ Neuropathic + nociceptive pain intensities | ↑ and ↓ Limbocortical (↓ pPaHC – parietal; ↑ amygdala - parietal) |
Neuropathic > nociceptive pain intensity | ↓ Limbocortical |
Neuropathic < nociceptive pain intensity | ↑ Limbocortical |
Summary of connectivity pattern alterations associated with pain phenotypes and severity. Full results and specific regions can be found in Table 3. Posterior parahippocampal gyrus (pPaHC).
