Боль как междисциплинарная проблема от периода новорожденности до пожилого возраста

The paper discusses pain in different age groups and contains both literature review and the original data of the authors about sensitivity to pain in 281 patients at neurological ward and healthy controls using our own design. It was concluded that according to the results of study, sensitivity to pain depends on gender (the threshold is significantly lower for females), but does not depend on temperament or age in our sample. The discussion includes recent international papers.
