To synthesise the evidence for central hyperexcitability in Chronic WAD (whiplash associated disorders) with meta-analysis, and review test protocols.Chronic WAD was compared to healthy controls. Studies were eligible if they used measures of central hyperexcitability with standardised procedure. Meta-analyses (where possible) were conducted.The search yielded 27 trials of good quality and 13 were...
There is evidence suggesting an important role of nociceptive sensitization in lateral epicondylalgia (LE). Our aim was to explore somato-sensory changes in patients with unilateral LE to better understand this musculoskeletal condition. Twelve patients (6 female) with LE with a mean (SD) age 47 (10) years, and 16 controls (7 female), aged 41 (9) years were tested. The following somato-sensory parameters...
Hypersensitivity to a variety of sensory stimuli is a feature of persistent whiplash associated disorders (WAD). However, little is known about sensory disturbances from the time of injury until transition to either recovery or symptom persistence. Quantitative sensory testing (pressure and thermal pain thresholds, the brachial plexus provocation test), the sympathetic vasoconstrictor reflex and psychological...
