6. Evidence from control experiments indicated it was unlikely that the magnitude scaling of heat pain in normal skin and the changes in magnitude scaling following the development of hyperalgesia after heat injury depended on activity in AMH nociceptors, low-threshold thermoreceptors, or regional changes in blood flow. 7. The results of these experiments suggest that activity in CMH nociceptors is a major peripheral determinant of heat pain sensation in normal skin and also contributes to the hyperalgesia following heat injury to the skin. If the magnitude of heat pain in normal skin is coded in the mean impulse discharge of CMH nociceptors as the data suggest, then the same neural code, at least as revealed in the responses of nociceptors in the monkey, does not fully account for the magnitude of change in pain sensation in humans following mild heat injury. Candidate explanations for certain mismatches between human sensory and monkey neural events are discussed.
