Effect of imipramine vs. placebo on pain detection threshold with a single (ESPT) or repeated electrical stimulus (ERPT), and on pressure pain detection (PPDT) and tolerance thresholds (PPTT), and the time until cold pain reaches 7 on NRS (Iwsec) for different CYP 2D6 genotypes (intermediate vs. extensive metabolizers). The effect is estimated on the log scale and presented as a mean ratio. A significant interaction would indicate that the effect differs between genotypes.
