    Non-invasive insular stimulation for peripheral neuropathic pain: Influence of target or symptom?
    (2022) CUNHA, Pedro Henrique Martins da; Liu Dongyang; FERNANDES, Ana Mercia; THIBES, Raissa Benocci; SATO, Joao; TANAKA, Harki; DALE, Camila; LAPA, Jorge Dornellys da Silva; MORAIS, Adriano Donizeth Silva de; SOARES, Felipe Henriques Carvalho; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; GRAVEN-NIELSEN, Thomas; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi de
    Objectives: The posterior-superior insula (PSI) has been shown to be a safe and potentially effective target for neuromodulation in peripheral neuropathic pain (PNP) in humans and animal models. However, it remains unknown whether there is a measurable responder profile to PSI stimulation. Two factors were hypothesized to influence the response of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the PSI: differences in rTMS target (discrete subregions of the PSI) or PNP phenotype. Methods: This is a secondary analysis from a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, crossover trial assessing PSI-rTMS in PNP (N = 31, 5 days rTMS) (10.1016/j.neucli.2021.06.003). Active PSI-rTMS true responders (>50% pain reduction from baseline after active but not after sham series of treatment) were compared with not true responders, to determine whether they differed with respect to 1) rTMS neuro-navigational target coordinates, and/or 2) specific neuropathic pain symptom inventory (NPSI) clusters (pinpointed pain, evoked pain, and deep pain) at baseline. Results: Mean rTMS target coordinates did not differ between true (n = 45.1%) and not true responders (p = 0.436 for X, p = 0.120 for Y, and p = 0.116 for Z). The Euclidian distance between true and not true responders was 4.04 mm. When comparing differences in responders between NPSI clusters, no participant within the evoked pain cluster was a true responder (p = 0.024). Conclusion: Response to PSI-rTMS may depend on pain cluster subtype rather than on differences in targeting within the PSI.

    Sifting the wheat from the chaff? Evidence for the existence of an asymmetric fibromyalgia phenotype
    (2020) KAZIYAMA, Helena H.; BARBOUR, Julio; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; SIQUEIRA, Silvia R. D. Tesseroli de; LISTIK, Clarice; SANTOS, Gabriel Jose dos; YENG, Lin T.; MARCOLIN, Marco Antonio; RAICHER, Irina; TEIXEIRA, Manoel J.; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi de
    Background The different phenotypic presentations of fibromyalgia (FM) have been infrequently studied and may have diagnostic and therapeutic implications. The aim of this study was to explore differences between FM patients with classical symmetric (s-FM) presentation and FM patients with marked asymmetric (a-FM) pain. Methods We performed two consecutive cross-sectional studies on FM patients and matched healthy volunteers (HV). FM patients were divided into a-FM (and s-FM groups according to their score of pain intensity on each body side; patients with a difference of >= 40 mm in VAS between left and right sides were classified as a-FM, otherwise classified as s-FM. Participants (FM = 32; HV = 31) were assessed for clinical, cortical excitability (CE), quantitative sensory testing (QST; study 1), and intraepidermal nerve fibre density (IENFD) determinations (study 2). Results While pain intensity did not significantly differ between s-FM and a-FM patients, pain interference in daily activities was significantly higher in the a-FM as compared to the s-FM group (54.7 +/- 8.9 and 37.6 +/- 13.5;p < .0001). PPT was significantly lower in the more painful side of a-FM as compared to the HV (27.7 +/- 7.9 and 49.9 +/- 13.0;p < .0001), while PPT in the less painful side of a-FM was significantly higher than PPT values in the s-FM (35.8 +/- 8.3 and 27.7 +/- 5.5;p = .031). S-FM and a-FM had significantly abnormal intracortical inhibition values on CE measurements compared to HV. There were no significant differences in IENFD between groups. Conclusions Within the current FM criteria, there exist different phenotypes with clinical, psychophysics, and neurophysiological findings that are not related to peripheral IENFD abnormalities. Significance Current fibromyalgia criteria may contain different phenotypes of fibromyalgia based on the lateralization of pain.

    Corticomotor excitability is altered in central neuropathic pain compared with non-neuropathic pain or pain-free patients
    (2023) BARBOSA, Luciana Mendonca; VALERIO, Fernanda; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; RODRIGUES, Antonia Lilian de Lima; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; YENG, Lin Tchia; JUNIR, Jefferson Rosi; CONFORTO, Adriana Bastos; LUCATO, Leandro Tavares; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi de
    Objectives: Central neuropathic pain (CNP) is associated with altered corticomotor excitability (CE), which can potentially provide insights into its mechanisms. The objective of this study is to describe the CE changes that are specifically related to CNP.Methods: We evaluated CNP associated with brain injury after stroke or spinal cord injury (SCI) due to neuromyelitis optica through a battery of CE measurements and comprehensive pain, neurological, functional, and quality of life assessments. CNP was compared to two groups of patients with the same disease: i. with non-neuropathic pain and ii. without chronic pain, matched by sex and lesion location.Results: We included 163 patients (stroke=93; SCI=70: 74 had CNP, 43 had non-neuropathic pain, and 46 were pain-free). Stroke patients with CNP had lower motor evoked potential (MEP) in both affected and unaffected hemispheres compared to non-neuropathic pain and no-pain patients. Patients with CNP had lower amplitudes of MEPs (366 mu V +/- 464 mu V) than non-neuro-pathic (478 +/- 489) and no-pain (765 mu V +/- 880 mu V) patients, p < 0.001. Short-interval intracorti-cal inhibition (SICI) was defective (less inhibited) in patients with CNP (2.6 +/- 11.6) compared to no-pain (0.80.7), p = 0.021. MEPs negatively correlated with mechanical and cold-induced allo-dynia. Furthermore, classifying patients' results according to normative data revealed that at least 75% of patients had abnormalities in some CE parameters and confirmed MEP findings based on group analyses.Discussion: CNP is associated with decreased MEPs and SICI compared to non-neuropathic pain and no-pain patients. Corticomotor excitability changes may be helpful as neurophysiological markers of the development and persistence of pain after CNS injury, as they are likely to pro-vide insights into global CE plasticity changes occurring after CNS lesions associated with CNP.(c) 2023 The Author(s).

    Insular and anterior cingulate cortex deep stimulation for central neuropathic pain Disassembling the percept of pain
    (2019) GALHARDONI, Ricardo Geront; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; GARCIA-LARREA, Luis; DALE, Camila; BAPTISTA, Abrahao F.; BARBOSA, Luciana Mendonca; MENEZES, Luciana Mendes Bahia; SIQUEIRA, Silvia R.

    Objective To compare the analgesic effects of stimulation of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) or the posterior superior insula (PSI) against sham deep (d) repetitive (r) transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in patients with central neuropathic pain (CNP) after stroke or spinal cord injury in a randomized, double-blinded, sham-controlled, 3-arm parallel study. Methods Participants were randomly allocated into the active PSI-rTMS, ACC-rTMS, sham-PSI-rTMS, or sham-ACC-rTMS arms. Stimulations were performed for 12 weeks, and a comprehensive clinical and pain assessment, psychophysics, and cortical excitability measurements were performed at baseline and during treatment. The main outcome of the study was pain intensity (numeric rating scale [NRS]) after the last stimulation session. Results Ninety-eight patients (age 55.02 +/- 12.13 years) completed the study. NRS score was not significantly different between groups at the end of the study. Active rTMS treatments had no significant effects on pain interference with daily activities, pain dimensions, neuropathic pain symptoms, mood, medication use, cortical excitability measurements, or quality of life. Heat pain threshold was significantly increased after treatment in the PSI-dTMS group from baseline (1.58, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.09-3.06]) compared to sham-dTMS (-1.02, 95% CI -2.10 to 0.04, p = 0.014), and ACC-dTMS caused a significant decrease in anxiety scores (-2.96, 95% CI -4.1 to -1.7]) compared to sham-dTMS (-0.78, 95% CI -1.9 to 0.3; p = 0.018). Conclusions ACC- and PSI-dTMS were not different from sham-dTMS for pain relief in CNP despite a significant antinociceptive effect after insular stimulation and anxiolytic effects of ACC-dTMS. These results showed that the different dimensions of pain can be modulated in humans noninvasively by directly stimulating deeper SNC cortical structures without necessarily affecting clinical pain per se.

    Effects of cerebellar neuromodulation in movement disorders: A systematic review
    (2018) FRANCA, Carina; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi de; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; SILVA, Valquiria; BARBOSA, Egberto Reis; CURY, Rubens Gisbert
    Background: The cerebellum is involved in the pathophysiology of many movement disorders and its importance in the field of neuromodulation is growing. Objectives: To review the current evidence for cerebellar modulation in movement disorders and its safety profile. Methods: Eligible studies were identified after a systematic literature review of the effects of cerebellar modulation in cerebellar ataxia, Parkinson's disease (PD), essential tremor (ET), dystonia and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Neuromodulation techniques included transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and deep brain stimulation (DBS). The changes in motor scores and the incidence of adverse events after the stimulation were reviewed. Results: Thirty-four studies were included in the systematic review, comprising 431 patients. The evaluation after stimulation ranged from immediately after to 12 months after. Neuromodulation techniques improved cerebellar ataxia due to vascular or degenerative etiologies (TMS, tDCS and DBS), dyskinesias in PD patients (TMS), gross upper limb movement in PD patients (tDCS), tremor in ET (TMS and tDCS), cervical dystonia (TMS and tDCS) and dysarthria in PSP patients (TMS). All the neuromodulation techniques were safe, since only three studies reported the existence of side effects (slight headache after TMS, local skin erythema after tDCS and infectious complication after DBS). Eleven studies did not mention if adverse events occurred. Conclusions: Cerebellar modulation can improve specific symptoms in some movement disorders and is a safe and well-tolerated procedure. Further studies are needed to lay the groundwork for new researches in this promising target.

    Dissecting central post-stroke pain: a controlled symptom-psychophysical characterization
    (2022) BARBOSA, Luciana Mendonca; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; RODRIGUES, Antonia Lilian de Lima; FERNANDES, Diego Toledo Reis Mendes; OLIVEIRA, Rogerio Adas Ayres de; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; YENG, Lin Tchia; ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; CONFORTO, Adriana Bastos; LUCATO, Leandro Tavares; LEMOS, Marcelo Delboni; PEYRON, Roland; GARCIA-LARREA, Luis; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi de
    Dissection of distinct post-stroke pain syndromes evidenced that the neuropathic pain inventory, the presence of cold thermal deficit and the finding of allodynia on bedside examination, explained 77% of the occurrence of neuropathic central post-stroke pain, a new finding that has clear diagnostic potential. Central post-stroke pain affects up to 12% of stroke survivors and is notoriously refractory to treatment. However, stroke patients often suffer from other types of pain of non-neuropathic nature (musculoskeletal, inflammatory, complex regional) and no head-to-head comparison of their respective clinical and somatosensory profiles has been performed so far. We compared 39 patients with definite central neuropathic post-stroke pain with two matched control groups: 32 patients with exclusively non-neuropathic pain developed after stroke and 31 stroke patients not complaining of pain. Patients underwent deep phenotyping via a comprehensive assessment including clinical exam, questionnaires and quantitative sensory testing to dissect central post-stroke pain from chronic pain in general and stroke. While central post-stroke pain was mostly located in the face and limbs, non-neuropathic pain was predominantly axial and located in neck, shoulders and knees (P < 0.05). Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory clusters burning (82.1%, n = 32, P < 0.001), tingling (66.7%, n = 26, P < 0.001) and evoked by cold (64.1%, n = 25, P < 0.001) occurred more frequently in central post-stroke pain. Hyperpathia, thermal and mechanical allodynia also occurred more commonly in this group (P < 0.001), which also presented higher levels of deafferentation (P < 0.012) with more asymmetric cold and warm detection thresholds compared with controls. In particular, cold hypoesthesia (considered when the threshold of the affected side was <41% of the contralateral threshold) odds ratio (OR) was 12 (95% CI: 3.8-41.6) for neuropathic pain. Additionally, cold detection threshold/warm detection threshold ratio correlated with the presence of neuropathic pain (rho = -0.4, P < 0.001). Correlations were found between specific neuropathic pain symptom clusters and quantitative sensory testing: paroxysmal pain with cold (rho = -0.4; P = 0.008) and heat pain thresholds (rho = 0.5; P = 0.003), burning pain with mechanical detection (rho = -0.4; P = 0.015) and mechanical pain thresholds (rho = -0.4, P < 0.013), evoked pain with mechanical pain threshold (rho = -0.3; P = 0.047). Logistic regression showed that the combination of cold hypoesthesia on quantitative sensory testing, the Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory, and the allodynia intensity on bedside examination explained 77% of the occurrence of neuropathic pain. These findings provide insights into the clinical-psychophysics relationships in central post-stroke pain and may assist more precise distinction of neuropathic from non-neuropathic post-stroke pain in clinical practice and in future trials.

    Introduction: Chronic pain (CP) is highly prevalent and generally undertreated health condition. Noninvasive brain stimulation may contribute to decrease pain intensity and influence other aspects related to CP. Objective: To provide consensus-based recommendations for the use of noninvasive brain stimulation in clinical practice. Methods: Systematic review of the literature searching for randomized clinical trials followed by consensus panel. Recommendations also involved a cost-estimation study. Results: The systematic review wielded 24 transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and 22 repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) studies. The following recommendations were provided: (1) Level A for anodal tDCS over the primary motor cortex (M1) in fibromyalgia, and level B for peripheral neuropathic pain, abdominal pain, and migraine; bifrontal (F3/F4) tDCS and M1 high-definition (HD)-tDCS for fibromyalgia; Oz/Cz tDCS for migraine and for secondary benefits such as improvement in quality of life, decrease in anxiety, and increase in pressure pain threshold; (2) level A recommendation for high-frequency (HF) rTMS over M1 for fibromyalgia and neuropathic pain, and level B for myofascial or musculoskeletal pain, complex regional pain syndrome, and migraine; (3) level A recommendation against the use of anodal M1 tDCS for low back pain; and (4) level B recommendation against the use of HF rTMS over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in the control of pain. Conclusion: Transcranial DCS and rTMS are recommended techniques to be used in the control of CP conditions, with low to moderate analgesic effects, and no severe adverse events. These recommendations are based on a systematic review of the literature and a consensus made by experts in the field. Readers should use it as part of the resources available to decision-making.

    Parkinson's Disease-related Pains are Not Equal: Clinical, Somatosensory and Cortical Excitability Findings in Individuals With Nociceptive Pain
    (2023) BARBOZA, Victor Rossetto; KUBOTA, Gabriel Taricani; SILVA, Valquiria Aparecida da; BARBOSA, Luciana Mendonca; ARNAUT, Debora; RODRIGUES, Antonia Lilian de Lima; GALHARDONI, Ricardo; CURY, Rubens Gisbert; BARBOSA, Egberto Reis; BRUNONI, Andre Russowsky; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; ANDRADE, Daniel Ciampi de
    Chronic pain is a frequent and burdensome nonmotor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). PD-related chronic pain can be classified as nociceptive, neuropathic, or nociplastic, the former being the most frequent subtype. However, differences in neurophysiologic profiles between these pain subtypes, and their potential prognostic and therapeutic implications have not been explored yet. This is a cross-sectional study on patients with PD (PwP)-related chronic pain (ie, started with or was aggravated by PD). Subjects were assessed for clinical and pain characteristics through ques-tionnaires and underwent quantitative sensory tests and motor corticospinal excitability (CE) eva-luations. Data were then compared between individuals with nociceptive and non-nociceptive (ie, neuropathic or nociplastic) pains. Thirty-five patients were included (51.4% male, 55.7 +/- 11.0 years old), 20 of which had nociceptive pain. Patients with nociceptive PD-related pain had lower warm detection threshold (WDT, 33.34 +/- 1.39 vs 34.34 +/- 1.72, P = .019) and mechanical detection threshold (MDT, 2.55 +/- 1.54 vs 3.86 +/- .97, P = .007) compared to those with non-nociceptive pains. They also presented a higher proportion of low rest motor threshold values than the non-nociceptive pain ones (64.7% vs 26.6%, P = .048). In non-nociceptive pain patients, there was a negative corre-lation between WDT and non-motor symptoms scores (r = -.612, P = .045) and a positive correlation between MDT and average pain intensity (r = .629, P = .038), along with neuropathic pain symptom scores (r = .604, P = .049). It is possible to conclude that PD-related chronic pain subtypes have dis-tinctive somatosensory and CE profiles. These preliminary data may help better frame previous contradictory findings in PwP and may have implications for future trial designs aiming at developing individually-tailored therapies. Perspective: This work showed that PwP-related nociceptive chronic pain may have distinctive somatosensory and CE profiles than those with non-nociceptive pain subtypes. These data may help shed light on previous contradictory findings in PwP and guide future trials aiming at developing individually-tailored management strategies. (c) 2023 The Author(s).
