BACKGROUND
Vibratory stimulation is a potential method for the treatment of pain.
METHODS
The effect of vibration on the forearm on detection (DT) and pain thresholds (PT) induced by electro-cutaneous stimulation were investigated in healthy male and female volunteers.
RESULTS
Women have lower baseline detection and pain thresholds as compared to men. Furthermore, women but not men report increased detection and pain thresholds after vibratory stimulation.
CONCLUSION
Our findings indicate the potential usefulness of vibratory stimulation for pain treatment, and that gender differences should be considered in future evaluation of the method.
背景
振动刺激是一种潜在的疼痛治疗方法。
方法
在健康男性和女性志愿者中，研究了前臂振动对经皮电刺激诱发的检测阈值（DT）和疼痛阈值（PT）的影响。
结果
与男性相比，女性的基线检测阈值和疼痛阈值较低。此外，女性而非男性在振动刺激后报告检测阈值和疼痛阈值增加。
结论
我们的研究结果表明振动刺激在疼痛治疗方面具有潜在的应用价值，并且在该方法未来的评估中应考虑性别差异。
