Eksperimentel: Arm 1: Sequence A-to-B (Capsaicin first)
Participants received topical 0.075% capsaicin (Zostrix) cream (5 mL) in Period 1, followed by topical inert (Lubriderm) vehicle (5 mL) in Period 2. Periods were separated by a minimum 1-week washout.
n = 6.
|
5 mL of 0.075% capsaicin cream (Zostrix; Hi-Tech Pharmacal, Amityville, NY, USA) applied to a 5 x 10 cm target region on the lateral elbow and to bilateral C5-C6 cervicothoracic dermatomes (total 15 mL).
The cream was massaged into the skin by a gloved investigator until no residue was visible.
Used as an experimental probe to evoke transient, reversible secondary hyperalgesia; not under therapeutic evaluation.
5 mL of inert vehicle lotion (Lubriderm; Johnson & Johnson, Montgomery, NJ, USA) applied to the same dermatomes as the capsaicin condition (total 15 mL), using the identical preparation and massage technique.
Matched to the capsaicin cream for colour and texture.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse |
Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Mechanical temporal summation (Sumscore)
Tidsramme: Baseline and 10, 20, 30, and 40 min post-intervention (within each of two sessions, separated by a minimum 1-week washout)
|
Sumscore is a summed pinprick temporal-summation response computed from a train of 16 repeated 256 mN pinprick stimuli delivered perpendicularly to the skin at 1 Hz, paced by a metronome.
Pain ratings (NPRS 0-10) immediately after each stimulus were summed (Clouse et al., 2021).
The primary Sumscore endpoint was pre-specified as the average of the lateral and inferior testing sites at the lateral elbow, expressed as a baseline-normalised ratio.
|
Baseline and 10, 20, 30, and 40 min post-intervention (within each of two sessions, separated by a minimum 1-week washout)
|
|
Offset analgesia magnitude (OffA)
Tidsramme: Baseline and 10, 20, 30, and 40 min post-intervention (within each of two sessions, separated by a minimum 1-week washout)
|
OffA was measured during a three-phase stepped-stimulus thermal protocol (32-45-46-45-32°C; T1/T2/T3 phases) using a 32 x 32 mm Peltier contact thermode (TSA-II NeuroSensory Analyzer, Medoc AMS).
Continuous pain ratings were collected via CoVAS (0-100) at 10 Hz.
OA magnitude was quantified as peak minus nadir CoVAS during the 46°C hold and the subsequent 45°C phase.
The primary OffA endpoint was pre-specified as the duration-averaged value across three thermal hold durations (5, 10, and 15 s at 46°C), expressed as a baseline-normalised ratio.

Within-session temporal stability (ICC(2,1)) of Sumscore and OffA
Tidsramme: 10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes post-intervention
|
Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC(2,1); Shrout and Fleiss, 1979) computed across the four post-intervention time points (10, 20, 30, 40 min) within each intervention condition, separately for Sumscore and OffA.
Reported with bias-corrected bootstrap 95% confidence intervals.

10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes post-intervention

Differential design-sensitivity (Measure × Intervention × Period interaction)
Tidsramme: 10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes post-intervention, across two crossover periods separated by a minimum 1-week washout.
|
A combined linear mixed-effects model using within-measure z-scored outcomes tested whether the period-adjusted intervention estimate differed between TS and OffA.
Three-way Measure x Intervention x Period interaction tested via Wald F-tests with residual degrees of freedom.
|
10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes post-intervention, across two crossover periods separated by a minimum 1-week washout.
