- OBJECTIVE: To our knowledge, this is the first study assessing brain activation in response to painful stimulation over disease-relevant (finger joint) vs. neutral area (thumb nail) in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared to healthy controls (HC).METHOD: Thirty-one RA patients and 23 HC underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while stimulated with subjectively calibrated painful pressures corresponding to a pain sensation of 50 mm on a 100 mm VAS scale (P50) at disease-affected finger joint and thumbnail (left hand), and corresponding sites in HC.RESULTS: Compared to controls, RA patients had significantly increased pain sensitivity (lower P50) at the inflamed joints but not at the thumbnail. RA patients exhibited significantly less activation in regions related to pain- and somatosensory processing (S1, M1, anterior insula, S2, SMG and MCC) during painful joint stimulation, compared to HC. No group difference in cerebral pain processing was found for the non-affected thumbnail. Within RA patients, significantly less brain activation was found in response to painful stimulation over disease-affected joint compared to non-affected thumbnail in bilateral S1, bilateral S2, and anterior insula. Further, RA patients exhibited a right-sided dlPFC deactivation, psycho-physiologically interacting (PPI) with the left dlPFC in response to painful stimulation at disease-affected joints.CONCLUSION: The results indicate normal pain sensitivity and cerebral pain processing in RA for non-affected sites, while the increased sensitivity at inflamed joints indicate peripheral/spinal sensitization. Brain imaging data suggest that disease-relevant pain processing in RA is marked by aberrations and a failed initiation of cortical top-down regulation.
