Machine learning analysis predicts a person’s sex based on mechanical but not thermal pain thresholds
Abstract Sex differences in pain perception have been extensively studied, but precision medicine applications such as sex-specific pain pharmacology have barely progressed beyond proof-of-concept. A data set of pain thresholds to mechanical (blunt and punctate pressure) and thermal (heat and cold)...
