Cutaneous sensory thresholds from skin overlying both masseters and right ventral forearm were measured in a group of 12 MPD patients and an appropriately matched group of non-patients. No significant differences were found between the two groups, nor were there significant differences between symptomatic and contralateral asymptomatic sites in the patients. There does not appear to be evidence for differences in sensory characteristics in the cutaneous afferent pathway of MPD patients.
在一组12名MPD患者以及一组匹配得当的非患者中，测量了覆盖双侧咬肌和右前臂腹侧皮肤的皮肤感觉阈值。两组之间未发现显著差异，患者的症状部位与对侧无症状部位之间也没有显著差异。似乎没有证据表明MPD患者的皮肤传入通路在感觉特征上存在差异。
