| Research Abstract |
We investigated the relationship between the hippocampal function of pain modulation induced by anxiety and daily physical complaints. We measured neural response to pain stimulation and preceding anxiety cue by functional MRI, and analyzed the correlation of this neural process with daily physical complaints assessed by questionnaire. Manifestation of daily physical symptoms was related to the hippocampal dysfunction in discrimination of anxiety states. The inhibition of neural response to low anxiety state in the hippocampus and associated cortices influenced the reduction of daily physical complaints.
