First, in regard to
pain threshold, a significant Condition x Trial interaction was observed, F(l, 28) = 5.71, p [less than]0.02.
As the data exhibited asymmetrical distribution, the Kruskal-Wallis test with Dunn's post hoc test for multiple comparisons was used to measure differences in the
pain threshold upon palpation.
Cold pressor test was performed on these subjects and their
pain threshold, pain tolerance were measured across their menstrual cycle (day 1, day 14, and day 21) for women.
Thermal
pain threshold: Temperature or thermal
pain threshold was the level of temperature that induces initial pain, and was assessed using a Thermal Sensory Analyzer (Medoc Ltd., Neuro Sensory Analyzer Model TSA-II, Israel) for cold
pain threshold (CPT) and heat
pain threshold (HPT).
Other authors claim that
pain threshold, which was used in our study, was a superior method for CPM testing [23].
There is an increase in both VRT and ART and
pain threshold. There is no much difference in the reaction time of red and green light.
The value demonstrated by the algometer was considered as
pain threshold.
Asian Americans who were more acculturated to the American culture had higher heat pain tolerance (beta = 0.61, P = 0.01), higher pressure
pain threshold (beta = 0.59, P = 0.02), and lower rating of punctate mechanical pain (beta = -0.70, P < 0.01).
"Other physiological benefits include increasing your baby's
pain threshold and reducing their stress levels.
Twenty-four hours after therapy, the hot plate test was done to assess
pain threshold. Thereafter, immunohistochemistry from the skin subjected to wet cupping therapy was conducted for HSP70 and [??]-endorphin.
However, a limited number of studies emphasized on the perception of pain and
pain threshold of patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP).
Cold
pain threshold (CPThr) and cold pain tolerance (CPTol) were quantified as the amount of time in seconds required for a cold sensation to be perceived as slightly painful and intolerable, respectively, during submersion of the nondominant hand into a 4[degrees]C circulating water bath to wrist level (i.e., cold pressor test).
