Abstract

Obesity affect a significant proportion of the population in the United States, and is associated with numerous health consequences including anxiety, depression, and chronic pain. Additionally, pain among adults with obesity has been associated with greater mental health problems and substance use problems. Yet little work has examined psychological vulnerability factors associated with these relations, and pain-related anxiety may be one candidate psychological correlate of these relations. Therefore, the current study examined the association of pain-related anxiety with pain intensity, disability, opioid misuse, anxiety, and depression among 164 adults (81.7% female, M_age = 40.13 years, SD = 10.85) with obesity (M_BMI= 37.21, SD = 6.70) and chronic pain. Results suggested that pain-related anxiety was significantly associated with all outcomes, and these results suggest that pain-related anxiety may play an important role in physical health, mental health, and substance use outcomes among adults with obesity and chronic pain.

成人肥胖和慢性疼痛患者的疼痛相关焦虑:与疼痛、阿片类药物滥用和心理健康的关系

在美国，肥胖影响了相当大比例的人口，并与许多健康后果有关，包括焦虑、抑郁和慢性疼痛。此外，肥胖成年人的疼痛与更严重的心理健康问题和药物使用问题有关。然而，很少有研究调查与这些关系相关的心理脆弱性因素，与疼痛相关的焦虑可能是这些关系的一个候选心理相关因素。因此，本研究对164名肥胖(MBMI= 37.21, SD = 6.70)和慢性疼痛的成年人(81.7%为女性，年龄40.13岁，SD = 10.85)进行了疼痛相关焦虑与疼痛强度、残疾、阿片类药物滥用、焦虑和抑郁的相关性研究。结果表明，疼痛相关焦虑与所有结果均显著相关，这些结果表明，疼痛相关焦虑可能在肥胖和慢性疼痛的成年人的身体健康、心理健康和物质使用结果中发挥重要作用。

期刊介绍： Behavioral Medicine is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal, which fosters and promotes the exchange of knowledge and the advancement of theory in the field of behavioral medicine, including but not limited to understandings of disease prevention, health promotion, health disparities, identification of health risk factors, and interventions designed to reduce health risks, ameliorate health disparities, enhancing all aspects of health. The journal seeks to advance knowledge and theory in these domains in all segments of the population and across the lifespan, in local, national, and global contexts, and with an emphasis on the synergies that exist between biological, psychological, psychosocial, and structural factors as they related to these areas of study and across health states. Behavioral Medicine publishes original empirical studies (experimental and observational research studies, quantitative and qualitative studies, evaluation studies) as well as clinical/case studies. The journal also publishes review articles, which provide systematic evaluations of the literature and propose alternative and innovative theoretical paradigms, as well as brief reports and responses to articles previously published in Behavioral Medicine.
