The purpose of the current study is to detail and critically examine recruitment and retention procedures across the PMC's large-scale multi-site pragmatic clinical trials, with attention to efforts made by trialists to diversify their study samples. Team members from 11 pragmatic clinical trials completed semi-structured interviews that focused on the meaning of diversity to the trial teams when planning the composition of their samples, methods used to recruit and retain diverse samples of patients, and planned analyses that take into consideration diverse subgroups of patients. Nearly 18,000 patients have been enrolled across trials, 22% of whom were assigned female sex at birth and 34% of whom identify with a marginalized race or ethnicity. Respondents highlighted study site selection, formation of partnerships with patient groups, and leveraging of data informatics as strategies that aided in the recruitment of patients diverse in terms of birth sex, race, and ethnicity. Notably, trialists adopted a narrow definition of diversity that did not take into consideration multiple intersecting identities of trial participants. Based on experiences of the PMC, we provide 14 recommendations on ways to diversify patient samples in clinical pain research.

To better understand how and why people use kratom for pain self-management, we analyzed baseline survey data (N = 395) and 15-day ecological momentary assessment (EMA) data (N = 357) from kratom consumers across the US. Although we recruited participants based on their kratom use, not on whether they used it for pain management, nearly half (49.1 %) met criteria for chronic pain, with many reporting substantial pain relief and high effectiveness of kratom in managing pain. A majority (69.2 %) reported difficulties in obtaining adequate pain treatment, and most indicated that these challenges impacted their decision to try kratom. Most participants did not report concerns about overuse or significant side effects. EMA data showed that, regardless of chronic-pain status, pain relief was the most frequently endorsed primary motivation for daily kratom use. There were no significant association between daily pain levels and kratom use frequency, and no difference in the daily kratom use between those with vs. without chronic pain. Recent kratom use was associated with lower current pain levels. Stronger subjective effects of kratom were associated with lower pain levels. This effect was significantly moderated by chronic-pain status: those with chronic pain showed a stronger link between subjective kratom effects and pain reduction. These findings underscore the urgent need for systematic, rigorous research on long-term implications, efficacy, and safety of kratom in pain management to guide informed clinical practices and regulatory policies. PERSPECTIVE: This study reveals that chronic pain is common among kratom consumers, who frequently use it for pain self-management and report significant relief, as shown by ecological momentary assessment.

Data was retrieved from the Norwegian Network for PDs' quality register which included 4361 participants. Pain was operationalized using the EQ-5D-3L \"pain or discomfort\" item and four SCL-90-R pain-related items (\"pain bothersomeness\"). Rates of self-reported pain were explored both pre and post treatment to determine the persistency of the pain-related symptoms. The role of negative affect in the relationship between PD severity and pain was investigated by linear regression analysis. A substantial burden of pain-related symptoms was demonstrated, as 71% and 80% reported moderate to extreme pain or discomfort and pain bothersomeness, respectively. Muscle soreness was the most common pain (59%) followed by headache (48%), low back pain (46%), and heart or chest pain (34%). Moderate to extreme pain or discomfort was persistent for 77% of the participants who provided end of treatment data (mean treatment duration was 82 weeks). Negative affect mediated the relationship between PD severity and pain. To our knowledge, this is the first large-scale study on everyday pain in patients with PDs.

Categorizing patients with TMDs into clusters based on neurobiological pain mechanisms could provide a promising approach to facilitate targeted treatments. This observational study (1) used a network analysis (NA) to explore the complexity of TMDs by investigating relationships among biopsychosocial variables, and (2) validated potential TMD subgroups based on mechanism-specific pain categories. One hundred and two patients with TMD were included. Biopsychosocial variables covered: general health, psychosocial features, TMD pain, and TMD characteristics. A NA evaluated the associations between variables and determined the role of each feature within the network. Hierarchical clustering was used to identify TMD subgroups. The NA revealed significant correlations primarily within the same feature domains, indicating a strong interplay between symptoms and psychological factors. Cluster analysis identified two subgroups driven by nociceptive and nociplastic pain mechanisms; the nociplastic group exhibited higher levels of anxiety, depression, pain catastrophization, central sensitization, pain duration, and more pain locations, along with poorer sleep quality, quality of life, and health status. In contrast, the nociceptive group exhibited restricted maximal mouth opening (MMO), heightened pain during TMJ palpation and mouth opening, and a greater positive response to manual therapy. Across all features, psychological factors, pain locations, and MMO primarily contributed to the separation of subgroups. By adopting a data-driven approach, these results support the significant role of considering the neurobiological basis of pain to improve patient classification.

This paper aims to develop a conceptual model of unidentified pain in humans with the goal of future development of an unidentified pain risk tool. A multi-phase process was employed consisting sequentially of 1) brainstorming followed by consensus building, 2) peer-review and publication of an integrative theoretical review protocol for \"unidentified pain,\" 3) conduct of the integrative review, and 4) a repeated brainstorming session to identify areas of risk for unidentified pain to produce a conceptual model. Brainstorming led to a consensus on \"unidentified pain\" as the concept of interest, followed by developing a review protocol. Twenty-four abstracts were reviewed after database searches, and four articles were included for full-text review. Three pain risk areas (hazards) were identified: cognition/communication problems, being alone or in the absence of a surrogate/proxy report, and the presence of known painful conditions or treatments and a conceptual model was developed. The hazards are posited to have the potential to both interact and be cumulative, increasing the risk for unidentified pain. There is currently no risk tool for assessing unidentified pain. The development of this conceptual model will be used for future development and psychometric testing of a tool to recognize the risk for unidentified pain in humans.

Previous IMI tasks displayed small-amplitude movements of axial regions, which limits person-centered IMI processes mobilization. This study aimed to assess the impact of chronic low back pain (CLBP) on IMI processes with a new task displaying large-amplitude whole-body movements mobilizing the lumbar spine. Twenty patients with CLBP and twenty age-matched controls performed a laterality judgment task on four distinct whole-body movements (trunk flexion, trunk rotation, capoeira, kickboxing). Participants viewed images from four different body viewpoints (back, left, right and front), randomly presented. Mixed ANOVAs were used to compare judgment accuracy and response times between groups and conditions. In participants with CLBP, response times were longer than in controls. The response times of participants with CLBP were also associated with DN4 scores, a self-reported questionnaire assessing neuropathic pain. We validated the use of a person-centered IMI because, for all participants, the accuracy decreased and the response times increased for images presented in the front viewpoint, i.e. when a 180° turn in IMI was required, compared to other viewpoints. The laterality judgment task proposed here confirmed that CLBP impacts IMI processes, and that the nature of pain (neuropathic or mechanical) needs to be considered because it seems to modulate IMI processes. PERSPECTIVES: A laterality judgment task with large-amplitude lumbar movements is key to show that CLBP alters processing speed of sensorimotor information originating from the painful region.
