Hjernens tilpasningsevne til smerte baseret på sensorik, motorik, adfærd og følelser samt smerteregulerende mekanismer (delforsøg 3)
Godkendt protokoltitel: Hjerne-neuroadaptabilitet til smerte inden for de sensoriske, motoriske, kognitive-affektive og smerteregulerende områder
Forskere ved Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP) på Aalborg Universitet er interesserede i, hvordan vores centralnervesystem tilpasser sig smerte, og hvordan denne tilpasningsevne varierer på tværs af individer.
Forsøget er opdelt i fem delforsøg, og vi søger nu forsøgsdeltagere til delforsøg 3.
Du kan deltage i forsøget, hvis du er rask, i alderen 18-68 år samt taler, læser og forstår dansk eller engelsk.
Du kan ikke deltage, hvis du bl.a. er gravid eller ammer, har eller har haft nervemæssige lidelser, lidelser i bevægeapparatet, psykiatriske diagnoser eller andre sygdomme (fx hjerneskade, rygmarvsskade, degenerative neurologiske lidelser, epilepsi, svær depression, hjerte-kar-sygdom, kronisk lungesygdom), hvis du tager smertestillende medicin eller anden type medicin, der kan påvirke forsøget (fx Panodil eller Ipren) hvis du har oplevet et unormalt søvnmønster de sidste 24 timer før forsøget eller hvis du lider af aktuelle eller tidligere kroniske eller tilbagevendende smertetilstande (f.eks. migræne, fibromyalgi, gigt).
Delforsøg 3 består af to forsøgssessioner, der hver varer ca. 2 timer.
Delforsøget inkluderer: Opmærksomhedstests og følsomhedstests (vha. varme/kulde, tryk og lyde).
Vi gør venligst opmærksom på, at du skal have en gyldig arbejdstilladelse for at deltage, hvis du kommer fra et såkaldt tredjeland.
Forsøget er godkendt af Den Videnskabsetiske Komité for Region Nordjylland, sagsnummer N-20250008.

The brain’s ability to adapt to pain based on sensory, motor, behavior and feelings, and pain regulating mechanisms (sub-experiment 3)
Approved protocol title: Brain neuro-adaptability to pain within the sensory, motor, cognitive-affective, and pain-regulating domain
Researchers at Center for Neuroplasticity and Pain (CNAP) at Aalborg University are interested in how our central nervous system adapts to pain and how this adaptability varies across individuals.
The experiment is divided into five sub-experiments, and we are now looking for subjects for sub-experiment 3.
You can participate in the experiment if you are healthy, aged 18-68 years, and speak, read, and understand English or Danish.
You cannot participate if you, among other things, are pregnant or breastfeeding, have or have had diseases affecting the muscles or the nervous system, or if you have or have had a psychiatric diagnosis or other illnesses (e.g., brain or spinal cord injuries, degenerative neurologic diseases, epilepsy, major depression, cardiovascular diseases, chronic lung diseases), if you regularly use pain-relieving medication or other medication, (e.g., paracetamol or anti-inflammatory medication), if you have experienced an abnormal sleep pattern within the last 24 hours before the experiment, or if you suffer or have suffered from a chronic or recurrent pain condition (e.g., migraine, fibromyalgia, arthritis, etc.).
Sub-experiment 3 consists of two experimental sessions each lasting approx. 2 hours each
The sub-experiment includes attention tasks, sensitivity tests (by means of heat/cold, pressure, and sounds).
Please note that you must have a valid work permit to participate in the experiments if you come from a so-called third country.
The experiment has been approved by The North Denmark Region Committee on Health Research Ethics, case number N-20250008.
