Both A & B
Affects inflammatory markers only
Affects inflammatory markers & opioid receptors
Affects inflammatory markers, opioid receptors & glutamatergic pathways
Has no analgesic affect
Affects inflammatory markers only
Affects inflammatory markers & CNS pain processing
Affects inflammatory markers, CNS & PNS pain processing
Has no analgesic affect
Affects inflammatory markers only
Affects inflammatory markers & opioid receptors
Affects inflammatory markers & glutamatergic pathways
Has no analgesic affect
TENS is only effective in certain individuals because of differences in gene expression
TENS is only effective in specific pain conditions
It is most effective when intensity is increased throughout the treatment and when pain is at its worst
Studies have shown TENS has no efficacy in the treatment of chronic pain
The mechanism is unknown
Causes sensitization and inhibits opioid receptors
Causes desensitization and stimulates opioid receptors
None of the above
Use differing frequencies & intensities "scramble" afferent pain signals and replace pain signals with "non-pain" information through conventional lines of neural transmission.
Have the potential to affect gene expression
Both A & B
Its analgesic affect remains elusive
It is only an effective analgesic when a person is deficient
Animal studies show it has an analgesic effect independent of deficiency
Deficiency is rare in pain conditions
It is the way the brain and gut communicate
People who are depressed always have chronic pain
Some serotenergic activation inhibits spinal nociception and some activation enhances spinal nociception
People who are happy never experience pain
The health of their gut
Protein intake in the diet
Polymorphisms in genes involved in serotonin receptors
The preconceived ideas the individual has regarding antidepressant drug therapy
Does not apply to chronic pain
Is only useful in patients with chronic pain and a diagnosed psychological condition
Teaches patients to stay in contact with negative emotions, sensations, and thoughts instead of using ineffective control & / or avoidance strategies
Can only be administered in interdisciplinary rehabilitation settings
Is dependent on the gut microbiome
Is dependent on tryptophan intake
Is receptor dependent
Is dependent on the mood of the individual
Has no effect on pain
Only affects musculoskeletal pain
Deficiency is common in pain conditions and supplementation often reduces pain
Has no correlation with the risk of statin-induced myalgia
It has an effect on dopamine levels
It can decrease epinephrine levels, therefore decreasing the stress response
It has an effect serotonergic pathways and serotonin synthesis
It enhance tryptophan absorption
