Brain network hypersensitivity underlies pain crises in sickle cell disease

2023-10-09

Abstract excerpt

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder causing blood vessel blockages and painful Vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs). VOCs, characterized by severe pain due to blocked blood flow, are recurrent and unpredictable, posing challenges for preventive strategies. In this study we propose explosive synchronization (ES), a phenomenon characterized by abrupt brain network phase transitions, as a novel approach to addres...
