Fig 1. QST Profiles patients with ongoing and intermittent pain.

Fig 1

When patients were grouped into those with ongoing or intermittent pain at follow-up examination, patients with ongoing pain showed higher mechanical pain sensitivity as well as a stronger loss for mechanical detection on the affected extremity. CDT: cold detection threshold; WDT: warm detection threshold; TSL: thermal sensory limen; CPT: cold pain threshold; HPT: heat pain threshold; PPT: pressure pain threshold; MPT: mechanical pain threshold, MPS: mechanical pain sensitivity; WUR: wind-up ratio; MDT: mechanical detection threshold; VDT: vibration detection threshold; PHS: paradoxical heat sensitivity; DMA: dynamic mechanical allodynia. * p < 0.05.
