Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients have to suffer from the diseases of interest. Therefore, patients have to meet minimum diagnostic criteria for CRPS, PNP, nerve lesions, headaches

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: patients suffering from tumors, acute infection or autoimmune diseases; pregnancy / lactation. Other diseases are registered; but will not prevent patients from participating in the study. This is also applicable for affective disorders. Control subject shall not suffer from any pain disorder, including CRPS, PNP, headaches, as well as traumatic nerve lesions. Patients with pregnancy, breast feeding period or with doubts about compliance will be not included.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary endpoint is to explore the role of ncRNA in chronic pain. Patients data will be explored, the results will be translated into rodent pain models and then backtranslated (confirmed) into patients.
