你相信,疼痛是传染的吗? Pain could be contagious, a groundbreaking new study claims. 近日,一项突破性的新研究声称,疼痛能够传染。 Lab mice were put through a series of tests which should not have been painful - ticklish at the most. But the rodents reacted as if their feet were burning. 几只实验鼠经历了一系列本来没有疼痛感的试验--最多只是有些痒而已。但是事实上它们的反应却好像是双腿在被灼烧。 The experiments by researchers in Portland, Oregon, suggested the mice caught this heightened sensitivity from other mice who were primed to feel pain. 由俄勒冈州波特兰市的研究人员们进行的该实验表明,这些老鼠敏感性的增加源自于其它即将感受到疼痛的老鼠那里。 |
