In 45 consecutive patients with chronic pain syndromes endorphins, fraction I of the cerebrospinal fluid and pain measures by means of electric stimulation via saline electrodes were investigated. In patients with high levels of fraction I (above median) pain threshold, PT and tolerance level, TL, in condition C (continuous stimulation increase) were found to be significantly higher than in patients with low levels of fraction I (below median). The results indicate that the endorphins are one of the physiological factors that contribute to the pain threshold and the tolerance level.
对45例连续的慢性疼痛综合征患者的内啡肽、脑脊液I组分以及通过盐水电极进行电刺激测量疼痛的情况进行了研究。I组分水平高(高于中位数)的患者,在条件C(连续刺激增加)下的疼痛阈值、PT(痛阈)和耐受水平TL,显著高于I组分水平低(低于中位数)的患者。结果表明,内啡肽是影响疼痛阈值和耐受水平的生理因素之一。
