Recent reports of multivariate machine learning (ML) techniques have highlighted their potential use to detect prognostic and diagnostic markers of pain. However, applications to date have focussed on acute experimental nociceptive stimuli rather tha...
The accurate assessment of pain in clinical settings is challenging due to its subjective nature. In this study, we used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure brain activity by detecting changes in blood oxygenation. Leveraging the...

OBJECTIVES: This study compares the effects of an artificial intelligence app-based exercise program with group exercise therapy on pain intensity and neck-related disability in patients with neck pain.
BACKGROUND: Exercise therapy is strongly recommended as a treatment for chronic nonspecific low back pain (CNSLBP). However, therapist-guided exercise therapy requires significant medical resources. Ordinary digital telerehabilitation affects efficac...
Pain remains poorly understood in task-free contexts, limiting our understanding of its neurobehavioral basis in naturalistic settings. Here, we use a multimodal, data-driven approach with intracranial electroencephalography, pain self-reports, and f...
Pain is a complex, multidimensional experience involving significant challenges in both diagnosis and management. While acute pain serves as a critical warning mechanism, chronic pain encompasses intricate biological, psychological, and social compon...

As machine learning increasingly plays a crucial role in various medical applications, the need for improved explainability of these complex, often opaque models becomes more urgent. Influence functions have emerged as a critical method for explainin...
BACKGROUND: Evidence for the routine use of robotic technology and its impact on short-term outcomes in colon cancer surgery is lacking. The aim of this study was to compare the surgically induced systemic stress response and clinical and patient-rep...

CONTEXT: Over 20% of US adults report they experience pain on most days or every day. Uncontrolled pain has led to increased healthcare utilization, hospitalization, emergency visits, and financial burden. Recognizing, assessing, understanding, and t...
BACKGROUND: This study was performed to update the current evidence and evaluate the effects of robot-assisted rehabilitation (RAR) in comparison with conventional rehabilitation (CR) in patients following total knee (TKR) or hip replacements (THR).
