摘要

目的:心理意象涉及形成内部感觉表征,而骨关节炎是一种以软骨丧失为特征的退行性关节疾病。本研究探讨了心理意象如何调节膝关节骨关节炎患者的疼痛感知和增强视觉处理。方法:48名受试者随机分为心理意象组和治疗组。治疗组接受常规物理治疗干预,包括超声、经皮神经电刺激、热敷、膝关节等长运动,而心理意象组则在心理上想象相同的治疗方法。两组都进行了为期10天的干预,并在前后进行了评估。采用视觉模拟量表(VAS)测量疼痛强度,通过数字视差测试评估视觉处理。结果:两组VAS评分均有显著下降,其中心理意象组下降幅度更大。值得注意的是,心理意象组面对空想性视错觉图像的反应速度更快,这表明视觉处理能力有所提高。相比之下,治疗组面对空想性视错觉图像的反应时间保持不变。结论:这些发现强调心理意象可以作为疼痛管理和认知增强的替代方法,潜在地影响面部模式识别的自上而下机制。这凸显了将心理意象整合到疼痛相关疾病的治疗策略中,促进个性化、创新治疗的潜力。

Mental Imagery Enhances Pain Reduction and Visual Processing in Knee Osteoarthritis Patients: A Comparative Study.

Objective: Mental imagery involves forming internal sensory representations, while osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease characterized by cartilage loss. This study explores how mental imagery can modulate pain perception and enhance visual processing in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. Methods: Forty-eight participants were randomly assigned to a mental imagery group or a treatment group. The treatment group received conventional physiotherapy interventions, including ultrasound, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, hot pack application, and isometric knee exercises, while the mental imagery group mentally imagined the same treatments. Both groups underwent interventions for 10 days, with assessments before and after. Pain intensity was measured using the visual analog scale (VAS), and visual processing was assessed through the digital pareidolia test. Results: Both groups exhibited significant reductions in VAS scores, with the mental imagery group demonstrating a more substantial decrease. Notably, the mental imagery group had faster reaction times to face pareidolia images, indicating improved visual processing. In contrast, the treatment group's reaction times to face pareidolia images remained unchanged. Conclusion: These findings highlight that mental imagery could serve as an alternative approach to pain management and cognitive enhancement, potentially influencing top-down mechanisms in facial pattern recognition. This highlights the potential for mental imagery to be integrated into therapeutic strategies for pain-related conditions, promoting personalized, innovative treatments.
