Challenges of differential placebo effects in contemporary medicine: The example of brain stimulation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Annals of Neurology"
DOI: 10.1002/ana.25387
Abstract: 'Differential placebo effects' is the concept that different types of placebos (e.g. inert pill versus sham device) may yield different magnitudes of placebo effects. This issue has been pushed into the spotlight by recent clinical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/brb3.2685
Abstract: Despite growing evidence validating placebo effects in nausea, little is known about the underlying cortical mechanisms in women and men. Therefore, the present study examined sex differences and electroencephalography (EEG) characteristics of the placebo effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001367
Abstract: 1. IntroductionThe standard and ideal biomedical model of symptom perception treats the brain largely as a passive stimulus-driven organ. It embraces the notion that the brain absorbs sensory signals from the body and converts them,… read more here.

How do placebo effects contribute to mindfulness-based analgesia? Probing acute pain effects and interactions using a randomized balanced placebo design.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Pain"
DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000002593
Abstract: ABSTRACT Recent sham-controlled studies suggest placebo effects contribute to acute pain relief following mindfulness interventions. However, the specific effects of mindfulness processes and their interaction with placebo effects remain unclear. This study aimed to characterize… read more here.
