Do unresponsive wakefulness syndrome patients feel pain? Role of laser-evoked potential-induced gamma-band oscillations in detecting cortical pain processing

Highlights • Nociceptive GBO power modulation expresses aware pain processes. • Stimulus repetition does not have an effect on GBO power. • GBO modulation may support DOC differential diagnosis.
