Abstract Introduction: Sex-related influences represent a contributor to greater pain sensitivity and have a higher prevalence of many chronic pain conditions, including neuropathic pain (NP), among women. Objectives: The aim was to analyze how differences in ongoing pain, experimental pain intensity, and conditioned pain modulation (CPM) relate to sex in subjects with neuropathy after traumatic nerve injuries. Methods: Endogenous pain modulation was compared between male (n = 77) and female (n = 55) subjects and between subjects with NP (female = 31, male = 39) and pain-free subjects with posttraumatic neuropathy (female = 24, male = 38). Conditioned pain modulation was assessed by pain ratings to pressure stimuli before and after a noxious conditioning stimulus (CS) conducted with one arm submerged in cold water (4°C) for 1 minute. Time of recovery (Time off) of pain intensity from peak VASmaxc after CS was recorded and compared between male and female patients. Results: Greater ongoing pain intensity was found among female patients compared with male patients and more experimental pain after pressure and cold induced pain. Summing all groups together, women had 0.8 times higher odds (20%) of recovering sooner than men after CS (95% CI = 0.65–2.9). No differences in CPM, time off, and psychosocial variables were seen between female and male patients (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Our hypothesis for sex differences in endogenous pain modulation was only supported by a shorter after-sensation time after cold CS in female patients. No sex differences in the magnitude of CPM effect were identified. Increased pain intensity for experimental pain, in both neuropathic pain and neuropathy without pain, was found in female patients.","PeriodicalId":52189,"journal":{"name":"Pain Reports","volume":"7 1","pages":"e1033"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46933484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two consecutive experiments showed that not the temperature rates but the area of stimulation mediates offset analgesia. Abstract Introduction: Offset analgesia describes the effect of a slightly reduced nociceptive stimulus, resulting in a disproportionate large reduction in the pain perception. This effect may be associated with descending pain inhibition, but parameters influencing this phenomenon are poorly understood. Objectives: In this study, 2 separate experiments were conducted to investigate both, the spatial aspects of offset analgesia and the influence of different rates of temperature rise. Methods: In both experiments, 29 healthy participants received individualized and heat-based offset analgesia paradigms applied to the forearm, with continuous assessment of pain intensity. In experiment 1, offset analgesia paradigms with 3 different rates of temperature rise were applied, whereas in experiment 2, offset analgesia paradigms with 2 different heat application areas were used. Results: The results of experiment 1 showed that different temperature rates had no effect on the offset analgesia response (P > 0.05). Experiment 2, however, showed the influence of the size of a stimulated area on offset analgesia (P = 0.009), which can be explained mainly by the influence of spatial summation of pain and habituation processes. Conclusions: The study showed a lack of influence of different temperature rates on offset analgesia; however, spatial aspects of offset analgesia could be identified. These are most likely based on spatial summation of pain and altered adaptation to pain.","PeriodicalId":52189,"journal":{"name":"Pain Reports","volume":"7 1","pages":"e1043"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45600174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both FM and obesity have been connected to low-grade inflammation, although it is possible that previously reported inflammatory alterations in FM primarily may be linked to increased body mass index (BMI).</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>This study aimed to investigate whether the inflammatory plasma protein profile, muscle blood flow, and metabolism and pain characteristics (clinical parameters and patient-reported outcome measurements) differed between female patients with FM with and without obesity.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Patients with FM underwent clinical examinations, physical tests, and answered questionnaires. They were dichotomized according to BMI (<30 kg/m<sup>2</sup> [n = 14]; ≥30 kg/m<sup>2</sup> [n = 13]). Blood samples were collected and analyzed using a panel of 71 inflammatory plasma proteins.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>There were significant (<i>P</i> < 0.05) differences in blood pressure, pulse, max VO2, pain intensity, physical capacity, and Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire between the groups; the obese group had higher blood pressure, pulse, pain intensity, and Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire. There were 14 proteins that contributed to the group belonging. The 4 most important proteins for the group discrimination were MIP1β, MCP4, IL1RA, and IL6, which showed higher concentrations in obese patients with FM. Significantly decreased blood flow and increased concentration of pyruvate were detected in obese patients compared with nonobese patients. There was significant correlation between inflammatory proteins and sedentary behavior and health status in obese patients with FM.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>These findings suggest that metabolism and inflammation interact in female patients with FM with obesity and might cause chronic low-grade inflammation. Screening for obesity and monitoring of BMI changes should be considered in the treatment of patients with FM.</p>","PeriodicalId":52189,"journal":{"name":"Pain Reports","volume":" ","pages":"e1042"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2022-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9534367/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33496991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
