Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Pressure-pain thresholds have been widely used in pain research to test the sensitivity of the pain system. Additionally, referred pain has been shown as a valid biomarker for the sensitization of the pain system.
The aim of the present study is to investigate pressure pain sensitivity and referred pain patterns of individuals with a history of recovered fracture, compared with healthy controls.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Recovered fracture group
The interventions will be conducted on both groups, on two experimental (approximately 45 minutes per session) sessions separated by 24 hours.Pressure algometry consists of measuring pressure pain thresholds at three bilateral muscle sites.Mapping referred pain areas consists of recording on an electronic body chart the area of pain induced by 60s pressure stimulation at 1.2 times the force needed to reach the pressure pain threshold, exerted on the extensor carpi radialis and the infraspinatus muscles.As group-differences can be attenuated at baseline but emerge on a sensitized (exercise-induced soreness) state, these procedures are performed at baseline and 24 hours after evoking exercise-induced muscle soreness. For further clarification see our recent publication PMID:29608510
