From: Somatosensory profiles of patients with chronic myogenic temporomandibular disorders in relation to their painDETECT score

Fig. 2

Thermal hyperalgesia in patients with myogenic TMD concerning their painDETECT score (≤ 12, n = 12; 13–18, n = 3; ≥ 19, n = 4) a QST-Cold pain threshold (CPT) and b QST-Heat pain threshold (HPT) presented as z-score values (mean value of patients-mean controls/SD controls). A z-score of 0 means the score is the same as for the mean of healthy subjects. It can also be negative or positive indicating loss or gain of function; Significance as results of analysis of variance (ANOVA) with LSD post hoc correction of multiple comparison; (n.s. = not significant, * = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, *** = p < 0.001)
