Recommendations on terminology and practice of psychophysical
DNIC testing.
Yarnitsky, "The methodology of experimentally induced diffuse noxious inhibitory control (
DNIC)-like effect in humans," Pain, vol.
Look at how he arrested the
DNIC colleagues in La Mosquitia ...
However, it is believed that low frequency sonic wave vibration treatment reduces central excitability by restoring
DNIC, and reduces temporal summation and that this decrease in acute pain and/or central excitability will improve function and gait.
DNIC also reported that most detained traffickers in 2011 were Angolan, but some Brazilian, South African, Nigerian, Portuguese and Congolese (DRC) nationals were also detained for trafficking in narcotics.
Prediction of chronic post-operative pain: Preoperative
DNIC testing identifies patients at risk.
It has been proposed that a noxious stimulus can activate various antinociceptive mechanisms, such as diffuse nocicep tive inhibitory control (
DNIC) (18), propriospinal antinociceptive responses (19) and descending modulatory system (20) ; however, the action of calcium channels blockers, [beta]-adrenergic blockers and digoxin on these antinociceptive mechanisms has not been extensively analysed.
These include diffuse noxious inhibitory controls (
DNIC), descending pain inhibitory pathways from the arcuate nucleus in the hypothalamus, neurohormonal responses and central control of autonomic nervous system from the arcuate nucleus (Carlson, 2002; White, 1999).
Repeated painful stimuli seem also to have a role in the alterations of the diffuse noxious inhibitory control (
DNIC), described as low functioning in patients with RA [82].
