Abstract
Pain is a crucial factor in rheumatic disorders, and reducing it is a primary goal of successful treatment. Adaptive pain-coping strategies can enhance this improvement, but maladaptive approaches such as pain catastrophizing may worsen overall patient well-being. This narrative review aims to provide a concise overview of the existing knowledge on pain catastrophizing in the most prevalent specific rheumatic disorders. The objective of this study was to improve understanding of this phenomenon and its implications, as well as to pinpoint potential directions for future research. We conducted searches in the MEDLINE/PubMed, SCOPUS, and DOAJ bibliography databases to identify articles related to pain catastrophizing in rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, axial spondylarthritis, systemic sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjögren's syndrome, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and osteoarthritis (non-surgical treatment). Data extraction was performed on November 1, 2023. The investigators screened the identified articles to determine their relevance and whether they met the inclusion criteria. Following a bibliography search, which was further expanded by screening of citations and references, we included 156 records in the current review. The full-text analysis centred on pain catastrophizing, encompassing its prevalence, pathogenesis, and impact. The review established the role of catastrophizing in amplifying pain and diminishing various aspects of general well-being. Also, potential treatment approaches were discussed and summarised across the examined disorders. Pain catastrophizing is as a significant factor in rheumatic disorders. Its impact warrants further exploration through prospective controlled trials to enhance global patient outcomes.

J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:1474-1479. [PMID: 38072098 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.12.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep quality following arthroplasty procedures is important for patient recovery and satisfaction, but remains poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to report risk factors for sleep disturbances in the perioperative period in patients undergoing primary total joint arthroplasty procedures. METHODS Sleep surveys were prospectively collected on 751 consecutive patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty at our institution between June 2019 and February 2021 at their preoperative and postoperative visits (2 and 6 weeks). Data were collected on patient demographics, opioid use (preoperatively and postoperatively) as well as tobacco and alcohol use, and specific medical diagnosis that may influence sleep patterns (ie, depression). Statistical analyses were performed using the Student's t-tests and 1-way analysis of variances. RESULTS For both total hip and total knee patients, worse sleep patterns preoperatively were found in patients who used opioids prior to surgery (P < .001), were current smokers (P < .001), and were aged less than 65 years (P < .001). Postoperative persistent opioid use (more than 3 months) was seen in patients who had worse reported sleep quality preoperatively (P < .001). In comparison to total hip arthroplasty, patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty were more likely to report less sleep in the postoperative period. Patients who were current smokers (compared to nonsmokers or previous smokers) (P = .014) had worse sleep quality at all time points that persisted at 6 weeks, although these differences were seen more in total hip patients than in total knee patients (P = .006 versus P = .059). CONCLUSIONS Sleep quality disturbances around the time of surgery appear to be multifactorial. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level III.

The interplay between symptoms of insomnia and pain in people with osteoarthritis: A narrative review of the current evidence. Sleep Med Rev 2023; 70:101793.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of disability worldwide and clinical pain is the major symptom of OA. This clinical OA-related pain is firmly associated with symptoms of insomnia, which are reported in up to 81% of people with OA. Since understanding the association between both symptoms is critical for their appropriate management, this narrative review synthesizes the existing evidence in people with OA on i) the mechanisms underlying the association between insomnia symptoms and clinical OA-related pain, and ii) the effectiveness of conservative non-pharmacological treatments on insomnia symptoms and clinical OA-related pain. The evidence available identifies depressive symptoms, pain catastrophizing and pain self-efficacy as mechanisms partially explaining the cross-sectional association between insomnia symptoms and pain in people with OA. Furthermore, in comparison to treatments without a specific insomnia intervention, the ones including an insomnia intervention appear more effective for improving insomnia symptoms, but not for reducing clinical OA-related pain. However, at a within-person level, treatment-related positive effects on insomnia symptoms are associated with a long-term pain reduction. Future longitudinal prospective studies offering fundamental insights into neurobiological and psychosocial mechanisms explaining the association between insomnia symptoms and clinical OA-related pain will enable the development of effective treatments targeting both symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative musculoskeletal disease that causes articular damage and chronic pain, with a prevalence of up to 50% in individuals >60 years of age. Patients suffering from chronic painful conditions, including OA, also frequently report anxiety or depression. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to assess the correlation between pain severity and depressive and anxious symptomatology in OA patients. METHODS A systematic search was conducted using four databases (PubMed, Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science) from inception up to 14th January of 2020. We included original articles evaluating pain severity and anxiety and/or depression severity in OA-diagnosed patients. Detailed data were extracted from each study, including patients' characteristics and pain, anxiety, and depression severity. When available, the Pearson correlation coefficient between pain and depression severity and pain and anxiety severity was collected and a meta-analysis of random effects was applied. RESULTS This systematic review included 121 studies, with a total of 38085 participants. The mean age was 64.3 years old and subjects were predominantly female (63%). The most used scale to evaluate pain severity was the Western Ontario and the McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, while for anxiety and depression, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was the most used. The meta-analysis showed a moderate positive correlation between pain severity and both anxious (r = 0.31, p < 0.001) and depressive symptomatology (r = 0.36, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate a significant correlation between pain and depression/anxiety severity in OA patients, highlighting the need for its routine evaluation by clinicians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study assessed change in sleep patterns before and after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and its relationship to patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). METHODS Between July 2016 and June 2018, surgical data and PROMs were collected on 780 subjects before and 12 months after THA or TKA. PROMs included Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, patient satisfaction, and 2 questions from the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. RESULTS Before surgery, 35% (270 of 780) reported poor quality sleep. Sleep quality and duration were worse in females over males, and in THA patients (39%) over TKA patients (30%; P = .011). Of those reporting bad sleep, 74% (201 of 270) were improved after arthroplasty. Satisfaction was higher in subjects reporting good sleep quality (626 of 676; 93%) compared with those reporting bad sleep quality (67 of 86; 78%) (P = .001). Sleep was positively correlated with better Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score/Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (r = 0.2-0.3). CONCLUSION Improvement in sleep quality and duration can be expected after THA and TKA and is associated with better outcome scores and satisfaction.

Abstract
Purpose of Review To evaluate and summarize recent research articles pertaining to insomnia in older adults that can guide healthcare providers on factors to consider when assessing and managing insomnia. Recent Findings Up to 75% of older adults experience symptoms of insomnia. Insomnia is associated with socioeconomic status, racial and ethnic classification, family relationships, medical and mental health disorders, cognitive function, and dementia. Although one-fifth of older adults are still prescribed sleep medications, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is the first line treatment for insomnia, resulting in short-term and long-term benefits. Summary To manage insomnia safely and effectively, healthcare providers need to consistently assess for insomnia during baseline and annual assessments, evaluate medical and social factors associated with insomnia, minimize the use of sleep medications, and provide referrals to and/or collaborate with providers who perform cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia. Insomnia screening is important as it facilitates early intervention with behavioral management, reduces the potential for pharmacological management, which increases fall risk in older adults, and enables further assessment and early identification of outcomes such as cognitive impairment.

Abstract
The current study investigated whether osteoarthritis pain was associated with physical function and aimed to identify possible multistep indirect pathways of the association between pain and physical function through sleep quality, depression, and fatigue. Using the survey method, data were collected from 222 adults age ≥65 years diagnosed with osteoarthritis at a senior welfare center in Daejeon, Korea. Data were statistically analyzed using serial multiple mediation analysis. Study findings showed that the relationship between pain and limitation of physical function was partially mediated by sleep quality, depression, and fatigue. The experience of pain among older adults with osteoarthritis directly and most strongly led to limitations in physical functioning, and pain-induced sleep disorders, depression, and fatigue may sequentially negatively affect physical functioning. Thus, pain is a possible fundamental cause of poor, or deterioration in, physical functioning in older adults with osteoarthritis. Therefore, pain assessment and pain management should be prioritized when caring for older adults with osteoarthritis. [Journal of Gerontological Nursing, 45(7), 46-54.].

Abstract
Objective: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out to investigate the relationship between fatigue, and sleep quality, pain and depression in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational design was used. The study sample comprised 151 individuals with knee osteoarthritis and 147 healthy individuals. To collect the study data, the Sociodemographic Characteristics Questionnaire (SCQ), Visual Analogue Scale to Evaluate Fatigue Severity (VAS-F), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Visual Analogue Scale and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were used. To analyze the study data, appropriate tests were used. Results: It was found that the patients with knee osteoarthritis had higher fatigue scores, and higher PSQI and BDI total scores than did the healthy participants, and that the difference between them was significant (p<0.05). There was a positive correlation between fatigue score and PSQI, VAS and BDI scores (p<0.05). Conclusion: The participants with knee osteoarthritis suffered fatigue more than did the healthy participants. This fatigue suffered by them affected their sleep quality, pain and depression negatively.

Abstract
Objective: Inflammation plays a key role in the etiology and pathology of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor celecoxib is used for the treatment of acute pain due to its potent anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Herein, we evaluated the effects of celecoxib on POCD in geriatric patients. Methods: A total of 178 geriatric patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were randomly divided into two groups and treated with celecoxib (group C) or placebo (group P). The levels of perioperative plasma COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, neuron-specific enolase, and S100β were detected in all patients. The pain intensity was measured by numerical rating scale (NRS). A battery of 9 neuropsychological tests was performed pre-operatively and 1 week, and 3 months postoperatively. Patients, whose postoperative performance declined by ≧1 standard deviation as compared to each preoperative test score on ≧2 tests, were classified as POCD. Results: A significant decrease in POCD incidence was found in group C as compared to group P on postoperative day 7 (12.3% vs. 34.1%; p < 0.05). POCD incidence did not differ between the two groups at the 3-month follow-up (8.8 vs. 9.7%). NRS scores at days 3 and 4 post-surgery were significantly lower in group C (p < 0.05). Patients in group C showed lower level of plasma COX-2, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and S100β as compared to group P postoperatively (p < 0.05). Conclusion: These results demonstrated that celecoxib can decrease early POCD incidence after total knee arthroplasty in geriatric patients, which might be mediated by suppressing inflammation and acute postoperative pain caused by surgical trauma.
