This is a landmark study. Thanks for sharing, congratulations.

Thanks for your positive comment. At the current stage, I consider the study a basic insight rather than something that is clinically useful. However, I think the methods including the multiverse analysis can inspire future studies further exploring biomarker candidates of pain, including PAF.

Thanks for sharing these insights. What do you think about the authors' reply to your comment?

A network correspondence toolbox for quantitative evaluation of novel neuroimaging results - Nature Communications Here, the authors present the Network Correspondence Toolbox, which enables researchers to examine and report spatial correspondence between their neuroimaging results and widely used brain atlases.

It's finally here! Use the Network Correspondence Toolbox to help contextualize your neuroimaging findings 🧠

Assessing the predictive value of peak alpha frequency for... : PAIN eak alpha frequency (PAF) is, thus, discussed as a potential biomarker and novel target for neuromodulatory treatments of pain. Here, we scrutinized the generalizability of the relation between PAF an...

Can brain activity predict pain sensitivity? Our new study tested whether peak alpha frequency (PAF) predicts brief experimental pain in 159 participants. Using preregistered multiverse analyses, we found no consistent evidence for this link. journals.lww.com/pain/fulltex...
