@aulenkamp.bsky.social et al. find that visceral pain is highly susceptible to nocebo effects, which can arise or intensify through cross-modal transfer from adverse somatic experiences, underscoring relevance of provider communication. Learn more in #PAIN bit.ly/4b603nw

What did they find? 🤔 In 650 Anesthesiologists, self-reported knowledge of placebo effects was moderate, & lower for nocebo effects! They integrate expectation-based interventions, but gaps in theoretical knowledge & deliberate systematic application remain, particularly regarding nocebo effects.

📃 New work from A04! 📃 This study found that visceral pain is more sensitive to negative expectations and nocebo effects than somatic pain. Bad experiences with somatic pain treatments can worsen visceral pain through a "cross-over" effect. 🤯 Read it ▶️ doi.org/10.1097/j.pa...

After the coffee break, our emerging PIs help debunk some academic myths! 🧐 Examples: "A researcher is a person with above average dedication to their job." or "Teaching is worth less than research." What do you think? Truth or myth? 🤔
