For all visits SBP patients completed the short–form of the McGill pain questionnaire (MPQ). The main component of the MPQ consists of 12 sensory and 4 affective descriptors, which are used to compute the sensory and affective scores respectively. Radiculopathy scores were quantified from pain locations that patients had shaded in with pencil on the MPQ form15 . Patients also completed the Positive Affect Negative Affect Score (PANAS), which includes 60 items and measures the two order scales for positive and negative affect. Depression scores were assessed using BDI. All questionnaires were given 1 hour prior to brain scanning. Pain and mood parameters for SBPp and SBPr and the differences between the two groups at visits 1 and 4 are presented in Supplementary Tables 2A and 2B .

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
