Evidence of descending inhibition deficits in atypical but not classical trigeminal neuralgia

Deciphering the role of endogenous opioids in high frequency TENS using low and high doses of naloxone
(2010)
Abstract : Previous human studies have shown that the analgesic effect of high frequency TENS could not be reversed by low doses of naloxone. The aim of the present study was to reinvestigate the possible contribution of ...
