“…A modification of this paradigm was introduced to circumvent isolation and movement restriction by allowing a socially stable group of animals to be sleep-deprived together in a large tank containing multiple small platforms (Coenen and Van Luijtelaar, 1985 ). While 6 h of this paradigm does not change heat and mechanical pain sensitivity and 24 h has limited effects (Onen et al, 2000 ; Wei et al, 2007 ; Wang et al, 2015 ; Tomim et al, 2016 ; Nasehi et al, 2018 ; Sardi et al, 2018b ), two or more consecutive days are systematically associated with an increase in pain responses for mild (44–46 C) (Onen et al, 2000 ; May et al, 2005 ; Damasceno et al, 2009 ; Harvey et al, 2010 ; Skinner et al, 2011 ) and intense (52 C) (Nascimento et al, 2007 ; Damasceno et al, 2009 ; Araujo et al, 2011 ; Gurel et al, 2014 ) heat, pressure (Randall and Selitto) (Ukponmwan et al, 1984 ; Onen et al, 2000 ; Tomim et al, 2016 ) and punctate (von Frey filaments) (Wei et al, 2008 , 2010 ; Damasceno et al, 2009 ) mechanical stimuli, and chemical pain ( Figure 4A ) (Hicks et al, 1979 ; Onen et al, 2000 ; Tomim et al, 2016 ). The development of heat hyperalgesia is stronger in females (Araujo et al, 2011 ).…”
