Abstrakt: A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio examined the differences in pain experiences between male and female patients with dental pain. The study found that while 60% of patients with a specific dental condition experienced mechanical allodynia, or pain from non-painful stimuli, nearly 40% of patients experienced no pain at all. The study also identified unique genes and immune system cells that may play a role in mediating pain in symptomatic patients and inhibiting pain in asymptomatic patients. The findings shed light on the regulation of the trigeminal system in male and female patients and provide valuable insights into the cellular changes that occur in different patient groups.
