Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to conceptualise Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) symptom burden and severity and explored their interrelationships with somatic symptoms and psychological distress. METHODS Participants were recruited from a local polytechnic. The quintessential five TMD symptoms (5Ts) of the Diagnostic Criteria for TMDs (DC/TMD) were appraised and extended to evaluate the duration, frequency, intensity and interference of discrete TMD symptoms. Global TMD severity (GS) was computed by totaling the points for all TMD symptoms and dimensions. TMD (TS) and somatic symptom (SS) burden were assessed based on the Somatic Symptoms Scale-8, while psychological distress was measured with the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales-21. Statistical analyses were performed using Kruskal-Wallis/Dunn tests and Spearman's correlation (α = .05). RESULT Of the 366 eligible participants (mean age 19.1 ± 2.3 years), 51.4% were 5Ts-negative and 48.6% were 5Ts-positive. Among the 5Ts-positive individuals, 25.3%/64.0% were 'bothered a little' whereas 4.5%/10.7% were 'bothered a lot' by TMD pain/headache. Correspondingly, 32.6%/12.4%/5.1% were 'bothered a little' while 2.8%/2.8%/1.1% were 'bothered a lot' by TMJ sounds/closed/open locking. TS burden was moderate-to-strongly correlated to aggregate symptom duration, frequency, intensity, interference, GS and SS burden (rs = .50-.88). While TS burden and GS were weakly associated with psychological distress (rs = .18-.36), SS burden was moderately related to depression, anxiety and stress (rs = .47-.53). CONCLUSIONS TS burden can serve as a proxy for global TMD severity and may be more meaningful than the mere presence of TMD symptoms in clinical and research settings.

Abstract
Chronic primary pain (CPP) occurs in the absence of tissue injury and includes temporomandibular disorders (TMD), fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). CPP is commonly considered a stress-related chronic pain and often presents as wide-spread pain or comorbid pain conditions in different regions of the body. However, whether prolonged stress can directly result in the development of CPP comorbidity remains unclear. In the present study, we adapted a 21 day heterotypic stress paradigm in mice and examined whether chronic stress induced wide-spread hyperalgesia, modeling comorbid CPP in the clinic. We found that chronic stress induced anxiety- and depression-like behaviors, and resulted in long-lasting wide-spread hyperalgesia over several body regions such as the orofacial area, hindpaw, thigh, upper back and abdomen in female mice. We further found that the expression of cholecystokinin (CCK)1 receptors was significantly increased in the L4-L5 spinal dorsal horn of the female mice after 14 and 21 day heterotypic stress compared with the control animals. Intrathecal injection of the CCK1 receptor antagonist CR-1505 blocked pain hypersensitivity in the subcervical body including the upper back, thigh, hindpaw and abdomen. These findings suggest that the upregulation of spinal CCK1 receptors after chronic stress contributes to the central mechanisms underlying the development of wide-spread hyperalgesia, and may provide a potential and novel central target for clinical treatment of CPP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is an idiopathic chronic disease characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, hyperalgesia, and allodynia that has been recently associated with risk of dysphagia. OBJECTIVE We aimed to analyze the association between nutritional status, micro- and macronutrient intake, and quality of life (QoL) in a cohort of women with FMS and risk of dysphagia compared to women with FMS without risk of dysphagia. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted in 46 women with FMS. Risk of dysphagia was assessed by the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) and the Volume-Viscosity Swallow Test (V-VST). The Food Frequency Questionnaire and the Swallowing Quality of Life Questionnaire were used to assess dietary intake and QoL, respectively. RESULTS Thirty women with FMS were at risk for dysphagia (65.21%), assessed by the EAT-10. Based on the V-VST, the frequency of risk of dysphagia was 63.04%. Significant differences in body mass index (BMI) were found between women at risk for dysphagia and those without risk. Women at risk for dysphagia had significantly lower overall QoL scores than those women without risk. No significant differences were found for dietary intake and dysphagia risk. DISCUSSION Women with FMS at risk for dysphagia have significantly lower BMI values and worse QoL than women without dysphagia risk, supporting the importance of assessing dysphagia in clinical practice in persons with FMS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to analyze the frequency of dysphagia risk and swallowing-associated quality of life (QoL) in a sample of women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and examine the potential relationship between risk of dysphagia and chronic orofacial pain (COP) in a sample of women with FMS. METHOD A cross-sectional observational study was conducted in 46 women with FMS. COP was assessed by mouth opening, the orofacial visual analog scale (VAS), and the craniofacial pain and disability inventory (CF-PDI). Risk of dysphagia was assessed using the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT-10) and the volume-viscosity swallowing test (V-VST). Swallowing-associated QoL was determined using the Swallowing Quality of Life (SWAL-QOL) questionnaire. RESULTS Thirty patients were identified as being at risk for dysphagia (65.21%) using the EAT-10 and, according to the SWAL-QOL, 41.30% of patients had alterations in QoL associated with swallowing. The EAT-10 correlated positively with orofacial VAS, CF-PDI-total, CF-PDI-pain and disability, and CF-PDI-jaw-functional status. In relation to SWAL-QOL, negative correlations were observed for orofacial VAS, CF-PDI-total, CF-PDI-pain and disability, and CF-PDI-jaw-functional status. Patients at risk of dysphagia (EAT-10 and V-VST) had significantly higher scores in orofacial VAS (p = .002 and p = .015), CF-PDI-total (p = .006 and p = .014), and CF-PDI-pain and disability (p = .004 and p = .013). CONCLUSIONS In this sample of women with FMS, we identified a high rate of dysphagia risk. Also, a high percentage of these women presented alterations in QoL associated with swallowing. Patients at risk for dysphagia had significantly higher orofacial VAS and CF-PDI-total scores, supporting the relationship between dysphagia risk and COP in FMS. Further research to establish the need for appropriate assessment referrals in clinical practice to determine whether dysphagia is present in this population is needed.

Abstract
Although there is growing evidence that kinesiophobia is correlated with temporomandibular disorders (TMD), its relationship with other characteristic TMD comorbidities, such as depression, anxiety, functional limitations, and pain in the TMD population, has rarely been investigated. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between kinesiophobia, emotional state, functional state and chronic pain in subjects both with and without TMD. A total of 94 subjects participated in the study and were divided into two groups (47 subjects each)-TMD (subjects with temporomandibular disorders) and nTMD (asymptomatic controls)-on the basis of the RDC/TMD protocol. All measurements were taken with self-administered questionnaires: TSK-TMD for kinesiophobia, PHQ-9 and GAD-7 for psychoemotional state, JFLS-20 for jaw functional limitations, and GCPS for chronic pain. The prevalence of kinesiophobia in the TMD group was 38.3% for moderate risk, and 61.7% for high risk. The TMD group showed significantly higher scores in all categories (kinesiophobia, depression, jaw functional limitations and chronic pain), with the exception of anxiety which was right at the cut-off point. Moreover, a significant correlation was found between kinesiophobia (TSK-TMD) and jaw functional limitations (JFLS-20). Results of this study could provide new insight into the relationship between kinesiophobia and TMD, further improving the diagnosis process.

Abstract
OBJETIVES To investigate the positional changes in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc-condyle-fossa complex of patients with anterior disc displacement without reduction (ADDWoR) and to evaluate the effect of disc repositioning (DR) surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifteen patients with unilateral ADDWoR (30 joints) were included. MRI of the TMJ was performed at T0 (1 week before surgery), T1 (1 month after surgery), and T2 (9-12 months after surgery). The glenoid fossa, disc, and condyle were reconstructed and analyzed using Mimics software. RESULTS In the patients with unilateral ADDWoR, the disc on the ADD side showed a tendency to downward shift in the coronal direction and forward shift in the sagittal direction; the condyle of ADD side showed a tendency to backward shift in the sagittal direction and upward shift in the coronal direction. When comparing the same ADDwoR TMJ at T0, T1, and T2, the disc was found to move upward and backward after DR surgery at T1 and T2, and the condyle was found to move upward and backward after DR surgery at T1 but returned to the original position at T2. CONCLUSIONS ADDWoR leads to forward and downward displacement of the disc relative to the condyle and upward displacement of the condyle relative to the tuberosity. DR surgery improved upon the structural abnormalities of the TMJ complex, for which stability was maintained as determined in the 9 to 12 month postoperative follow-up. CLINIC RELEVANCE DR surgery effectively and constantly improves the positional abnormalities of the TMJ complex.

Abstract
This is a review of the literature on the main neuromodulation techniques, focusing on the possibility of introducing sensory threshold ULFTENS into them. Electro neuromodulation techniques have been in use for many years as promising methods of therapy for cognitive and emotional disorders. One of the most widely used forms of stimulation for orofacial pain is transcutaneous trigeminal stimulation on three levels: supraorbital area, dorsal surface of the tongue, and anterior skin area of the tragus. The purpose of this review is to trigger interest on using dental ULFTENS as an additional trigeminal neurostimulation and neuromodulation technique in the context of TMD. In particular, we point out the possibility of using ULFTENS at a lower activation level than that required to trigger a muscle contraction that is capable of triggering effects at the level of the autonomic nervous system, with extreme ease of execution and few side effects.

Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) are a group of conditions that cause pain and dysfunction in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and muscles that control mandibular movement. In most cases, the etiology is unclear and is considered multifactorial. Recent research suggests that some forms of TMD could be associated with specific TMJ morphological characteristics. This study aims to provide a review of the reported anatomical and degenerative morphological condylar characteristics of subjects with a clinical diagnosis of TMD as described with the use of CBCT imaging, as well as the detection of potential predisposing anatomical factors. This review was developed and reported in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR Checklist. A comprehensive search was performed in five databases. Reports were screened by two independent reviewers based on preselected inclusion and exclusion criteria. 45 studies were included in this review. The most frequently reported degenerative changes associated with TMD were condylar surface erosion, flattening, osteophytes, and sclerosis. Anatomical characteristics included a small condylar size and a posterior position of the condylar head in the TMJ. The anterosuperior area of the condylar head appears to be the most frequently affected. More studies are required to determine potential specific predisposing anatomical characteristics.

Abstract
The relationship between serum vitamin D levels and temporomandibular disorders (TMDs) remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels and TMD incidence using large-scale health data. Clinical data from the electronic health records of six secondary or tertiary hospitals in Korea were used to evaluate the relationship between serum 25(OH)D levels and TMD incidence. The data were converted to the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model. A cohort study was designed using the Cox proportional hazards model to examine the hazard ratio (HR) of TMD development after propensity score matching (PSM). An aggregate meta-analysis of the HR was subsequently performed. After 1:4 PSM, a target group with deficient 25(OH)D levels (<20 ng/mL) (N = 34,560) and comparator group with non-deficient 25(OH)D levels (≥20 ng/mL) (N = 47,359) were pooled from six hospital databases. HR meta-analysis demonstrated a significant association between deficient 25(OH)D levels and TMD incidence (pooled HR: 1.50; 95% confidence interval: 1.07-2.12). In conclusion, deficient 25(OH)D levels were found to be associated with an increased TMD risk. Therefore, vitamin D deficiency is a potential risk factor for TMD development.

Abstract
Comorbidity is a distinct additional condition that either existed or exists during the clinical course of a patient afflicted by the condition/entity in question. The clinician attempting to manage temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) and TMD pain must realize that recognition and management of the comorbidities are essential to the successful management of the same with optimal pain control. When TMD presents with multiple comorbidities, the task for the clinician becomes more complex. It is the hope of the authors that this condensed version of TMD-associated comorbidities acts as a primer for understanding the significance of the same in pain management.

Abstract
Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a systemic and multifactorial disease of unknown etiology. There are many co-morbidities that the patient presents, making the clinical picture not immediate. Cognitive decline and emotional alteration (anxiety and depression) are found in fibromyalgic patients, as well as temporomandibular joint arthrokinematic disorders, dental malocclusion, and periodontitis. There seems to be a biunivocal relationship between oral and psychiatric dysfunctions in fibromyalgia. The article reviews the information regarding oral health alterations with respect to the patient's cognitive and emotional response, as the most recent information we have raises new hypotheses about the diagnosis of FMS.

The Emergencies in the Group of Patients with Temporomandibular Disorders. J Clin Med 2022; 12:jcm12010298. [PMID: 36615097 PMCID: PMC9821445 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12010298] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 12/18/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Temporomandibular disorder is a musculoskeletal disease with complex, multifactorial etiology regarding improper functioning of the stomatognathic system (masticatory muscles, temporomandibular joints, and surrounding structures). This article presents medical emergencies occurring among patients treated for temporomandibular disorders, which tend to constitute a severe difficulty for practitioners during their clinical practice. Examples of the most common emergencies of this type are disc displacement without reduction and a sudden contraction of the inferior part of the lateral pterygoid muscle. The latter occurs in cases of uncontrolled and incorrect use of the anterior repositioning splints and the hypertrophy of the coronoid process of the mandible. The sudden attacks of pain of secondary trigeminal neuralgia are also discussed in this article, together with their specific nature, which is significantly different from the nature of the pain of primary trigeminal neuralgia, yet the two types of neuralgia can be easily confused when the primary one takes the painful form. Subsequent emergencies discussed are myofascial pain syndrome, traumatic and inflammatory states of the temporomandibular joints, subluxation, and the consequences of intense occlusive parafunctions. Finally, the recommended therapeutic methods, which are used as part of the treatment in the cases of aforementioned emergencies, are described in this mini-review article, emphasizing that the implementation of the incorrect treatment and rehabilitation for emergencies of temporomandibular disorders may lead to permanent damage to the soft tissue structures of the temporomandibular joints.

[PMID: 36579250 PMCID: PMC9792336 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.31896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 11/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this systematic study was to discover a connection between temporomandibular joint disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder. A systematic review of observational studies on post-traumatic stress disorder and the incidence of temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD) was conducted. Electronic searches of PubMed, the Saudi Digital Library, Science Direct, the Virtual Health Library (VHL), Scopus, Web of Science, Sage, EBSCO Information Services, and Ovid were performed. There was a consensus among the reviewing examiners. Only studies with the following Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms were included: "Posttraumatic stress disorder" combined with "temporomandibular joint disorder," "myofascial pain," "orofacial pain," "internal derangement," "disc displacement with reduction," or "disc displacement without reduction." Only full-text studies in the English language published between 2010 and June 2020 were considered. Of a total of 381 articles meeting the initial screening criteria, only eight were included in the qualitative analysis. Overall, pain is exacerbated in patients with PTSD; that is, their TMD is heightened in all aspects of pain, chronicity, decreased response to conventional therapies, and the need for more potent treatment options as compared with patients with just TMD. The evidence, albeit weak, obtained from the studies included in this review suggests a relationship between PTSD and TMDs.

Chronic temporomandibular disorders are associated with higher propensity to develop central sensitization: a case-control study. Pain 2022; 164:e251-e258. [PMID: 36251966 DOI: 10.1097/j.pain.0000000000002803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/30/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
ABSTRACT Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) include a group of musculoskeletal disorders that may involve increased responsiveness of nociceptive neurons in the central nervous system (ie, central sensitization). To test this hypothesis further, this study examined whether, as compared with healthy subjects, patients with chronic TMD have a greater propensity to develop secondary mechanical hyperalgesia-a phenomenon that can be confidently attributed to central sensitization. In this case-control study, we assessed the area of secondary mechanical hyperalgesia induced experimentally by delivering high-frequency electrical stimulation (HFS) to the volar forearm skin in 20 participants with chronic TMD and 20 matched healthy controls. High-frequency electrical stimulation consisted in 12 trains of constant-current electrical pulses (5 mA) delivered at 42 Hz. The area of secondary mechanical hyperalgesia was evaluated 30 minutes after applying HFS. The area of secondary mechanical hyperalgesia induced by HFS was on average 76% larger in the chronic TMD group (M = 67.7 cm 2 , SD = 28.2) than in the healthy control group (M = 38.4 cm 2 , SD = 14.9; P = 0.0003). Regarding secondary outcomes, there was no group difference in the intensity of secondary mechanical hyperalgesia, but allodynia to cotton after HFS was more frequent in the chronic TMD group. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to show that individuals with chronic TMD have an increased propensity to develop secondary hyperalgesia in a site innervated extratrigeminally. Our results contribute to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic TMD.

Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue in relation to temporomandibular disorders-A SWEREG-TMD nationwide case-control study. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0275930. [PMID: 36223372 PMCID: PMC9555668 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0275930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are comprised by a heterogenous group of diagnoses with multifaceted and complex etiologies. Although diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (MSD) have been reported as risk factors for developing TMD, no nationwide population-based registry studies have been conducted to investigate this possible link. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between MSD and TMD in a population-based sample using Swedish registry data, and to further investigate the difference in such association between patients diagnosed with TMD in a hospital setting and patients surgically treated for the condition. MATERIALS AND METHODS Population based case-control study using Swedish nationwide registry data. Data was collected between 1998 and 2016 from 33 315 incident cases and 333 122 controls aged ≥18, matched for sex, age, and living area. Cases were stratified into non-surgical (NS), surgically treated once (ST1) and surgically treated twice or more (ST2). Information on MSD exposure (ICD-10 M00-M99) was collected between 1964 and 2016. Odds ratios were calculated using conditional logistic regression, adjusted for country of birth, educational level, living area, and mental health comorbidity. RESULTS A significant association between MSD and the development of TMD was found for all diagnostic categories: arthropathies (OR 2.0, CI 1.9-2.0); systemic connective tissue disorders (OR 2.3, CI 2.1-2.4); dorsopathies (OR 2.2, CI 2.1-2.2); soft tissue disorders (OR 2.2, CI 2.2-2.3); osteopathies and chondropathies (OR 1.7, CI 1.6-1.8); and other disorders of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue (OR 1.9, CI 1.8-2.1). The associations were generally much stronger for TMD requiring surgical treatment. The diagnostic group with the strongest association was inflammatory polyarthropathies, M05-M14 (OR 11.7, CI 8.6-15.9), which was seen in the ST2 group. CONCLUSIONS Patients with MSD diagnoses have a higher probability of being diagnosed with TMD, in comparison to individuals without MSD. This association is even stronger for TMD that requires surgery. The results are in line with earlier findings, but present new population-based evidence of a possible causal relationship between MSD and TMD, even after adjusting for known confounders. Both dentists and physicians should be aware of this association and be wary of early signs of painful TMD among patients with MSD, to make early referral and timely conservative treatment possible.

Alorfi NM. Pharmacological treatments of fibromyalgia in adults; overview of phase IV clinical trials. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:1017129. [PMID: 36210856 PMCID: PMC9537626 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.1017129] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Fibromyalgia is a chronic neurological condition characterized by widespread pain. The effectiveness of current pharmacological treatments is limited. However, several medications have been approved for phase IV trials in order to evaluate them. Aim: To identify and provide details of drugs that have been tested in completed phase IV clinical trials for fibromyalgia management in adults, including the primary endpoints and treatment outcomes. This article was submitted to Neuropharmacology, a section of the journal Frontiers in Pharmacology. Method: Publicly available and relevant phase IV trials registered at ClinicalTrials.gov were analyzed. The uses of the trialed drugs for fibromyalgia were reviewed. Results: As of 8 August 2022, a total of 1,263 phase IV clinical trials were identified, of which 121 were related to fibromyalgia. From these, 10 clinical trials met the inclusion criteria for the current study. The drugs used in phase IV trials are milnacipran, duloxetine, pregabalin, a combination of tramadol and acetaminophen, and armodafinil. The effectiveness of the current pharmacological treatments is apparently limited. Conclusion: Due to its complexity and association with other functional pain syndromes, treatment options for fibromyalgia only are limited and they are designed to alleviate the symptoms rather than to alter the pathological pathway of the condition itself. Pain management specialists have numerous pharmacologic options available for the management of fibromyalgia.

Abstract
Purpose There is a well-known association between mental and behavioral disorders (MBD) and temporomandibular disorder (TMD), although the association has not been established in population-based samples. This study aimed to investigate this relationship using national population-based registry data. Patients and Methods This case-control study used prospectively collected data from Swedish national registries to investigate exposure to MBD and the probability of developing TMD in all Swedish citizens with hospital-diagnosed or surgically treated TMD between 1998 and 2016. Odds ratios were calculated using conditional logistic regression adjusted for educational level, living area, country of birth, musculoskeletal comorbidity, and history of orofacial/neck trauma. Results A statistically significant association between MBD and TMD was found for mood affective disorders (OR 1.4), neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders (OR 1.7), behavioral syndromes associated with psychological disturbances and physical factors (OR 1.4), disorders of adult personality and behavior (OR 1.4), disorders of psychological development (OR 1.3), behavioral and emotional disorders with onset usually occurring in childhood and adolescence (OR 1.4), and unspecified mental disorder (OR 1.3). The association was stronger for TMD requiring surgery, with the strongest association in patients with disorders of psychological development (OR 2.9). No significant association was found with schizophrenia, schizotypal and delusional disorders, or mental retardation. Conclusion The findings indicate an increased probability of TMD among patients with a history of certain MBD diagnoses, and a stronger association with TMD requiring surgery, specifically repeated surgery. This highlights the need for improved preoperative understanding of the impact of MBD on TMD, as TMD and chronic pain itself may have a negative impact on mental health.

High Pain Intensity is a Risk Factor of Non-Resolving TMD: A Three-Year Follow-Up of a Patient Group in a Norwegian Interdisciplinary Evaluation Program. J Pain Res 2022; 15:1283-1296.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the outcome of patients with long-term refractory temporomandibular disorders (TMD) three years after a Norwegian interdisciplinary evaluation program with attention to patient satisfaction, function, pain, and psychosocial variables. Patients and Methods The study population consisted of 60 long-term refractory TMD patients who were investigated by a Norwegian interdisciplinary team. A questionnaire that covered medical history, function, pain, lifestyle factors, TMD-status and follow-up from their general medical practitioner (GMP) was sent to the patients three years after the evaluation. Questionnaires that assessed function (Mandibular Functional Index Questionnaire [MFIQ] and Roland Morrison Scale [RMS]), pain intensity (General Pain Intensity questionnaire [GPI]) and psychosocial factors (Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale [HADS]); a 2-item version of the Coping Strategies Questionnaire [CSQ]) were included in the package. Results Thirty-nine out of 60 TMD patients completed the questionnaires. Improvements in TMD symptoms were reported in 10 patients (26%), were unchanged in 16 patients (41%) and worsened in 13 patients (33%). Only 8 patients (21%) were satisfied with the follow-up of the suggested treatments from their GMP. Significant improvements of symptoms were noted in MFIQ (jaw function), GPI (including pain intensity at maximum and suffering from pain), and CSQ (pain related catastrophizing), in all 39 TMD patients as one group. However, a subgroup analysis showed that the significant improvements were mostly within patients who reported improvement of TMD symptoms. A high pain intensity at baseline was a significant risk factor (OR = 5.79, 95% CI: 1.34, 24.96) for patients who reported worsening of TMD symptoms at follow-up. Conclusion High pain intensity at baseline was a significant risk factor for poorer recovery three years after an interdisciplinary evaluation. Our data support the notion that improved coping with TMD pain includes both decreased pain intensity, CSQ and MFIQ scores.

Evidence for alterations to dynamic quantitative sensory tests in patients with chronic temporomandibular myalgia: a systematic review of observational studies with meta-analysis. J Oral Rehabil 2022; 49:654-670.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting results exist between somatosensory profiles of patients with temporomandibular myalgia (TMDm). The objective of this review was to examine whether adults with TMDm show altered responses to dynamic quantitative sensory tests compared with healthy controls. METHODS We searched five electronic databases for studies, excluding those without suitable controls or where TMDm was associated with confounding non-musculoskeletal disorders. Risk of bias was assessed with the SIGN case-control study checklist. Findings were structured around dynamic quantitative sensory tests and their localization. Where possible, we performed meta-analysis with a random inverse variance model to compare patients with TMDm and healthy controls. Statistical heterogeneity was estimated with Chi² test and inconsistency index, I². RESULTS We extracted data from 23 studies comprising 1284 adults with chronic TMDm and 2791 healthy controls. Risk of bias was assessed as high for 20 studies. Mechanical temporal summation, the most studied phenomenon (14 studies), is increased in the upper limb of patients with TMDm (SMD = .43; 95% CI: .11 to .75; p = .0001) but not in the jaw area (p = .09) or in the cervical area (p = .29). Very little evidence for altered thermal temporal summation (five studies), conditioned pain modulation (seven studies), exercise-induced hypoalgesia (two studies), placebo analgesia (two studies), stress-induced hypoalgesia (one study) and offset analgesia (one study) was found. DISCUSSION A major limitation of this review was the risk of bias of included studies. Future studies would benefit from following methodological guidelines and consideration of confounding factors.

Abstract
Epigenetic regulation of gene expression has been implicated in the development of chronic pain. However, little is known about whether this regulation is involved in the development and treatment of chronic pain comorbidities such as fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and temporomandibular disorder (TMD), a comorbidity predominantly occurring among women. Here we explored the impact of the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) on somatic hyperalgesia induced by stress or stress combined with orofacial inflammation, which mimicked the comorbidity of FMS and TMD in rats. Our data showed that somatic thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia induced by both conditions were completely prevented by intrathecal injection of SAHA, which upregulated 5-HT2C receptors but downregulated 5-HT3 receptors in the spinal dorsal horn. Subsequent spinal administration of RS102221 to inhibit 5-HT2C receptors or SR57227 to activate 5-HT3 receptors reversed the analgesic effect of SAHA under both conditions. These results indicate that SAHA attenuates the pro-nociceptive effects of stress combined with orofacial inflammation and the effects of stress alone. This likely occurs through epigenetic regulation of spinal 5-HT2C and 5-HT3 receptor expression, suggesting that SAHA has potential therapeutic value in FMS or comorbid FMS-TMD patients with somatic hyperalgesia.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical outcome of the use of botulinum toxin type A (BTX) intramuscular injections to the head and neck, particularly the masticatory muscles of patients with temporomandibular disorder (TMD). METHODS The medical records of all patients who had received intramuscular BTX injections between 2005 and 2018 at Päijät-Häme Central Hospital, Lahti, Finland were analyzed retrospectively. Gender, age, previous medical history, number of injections, injection areas, and therapeutic results were collected and analyzed. The outcome was divided into three categories based on the patients' subjective reports: not beneficial, beneficial, and highly beneficial. RESULTS A total of 68 patients had received intramuscular BTX injections in our unit for TMD symptoms. Clinical effectiveness could be analyzed from 63 patients. Overall, 87% of them reported favorable outcomes. 8 (13%) reported BTX injections as not beneficial, 15 (24%) as beneficial, and 40 patients (63%) as highly beneficial.Most patients had already received conventional treatment with an occlusal splint (93%) combined with pain medication (60%) in the primary care units before they were referred to our hospital.There were 59 (83%) female patients, and they responded better to BTX therapy than the male patients: 91% versus 57% (P value = 0.04). Average age at the first BTX injection visit was 44.6 years (range 17.8-77.2). Most commonly (65%), BTX was divided bilaterally to the masseter and temporalis muscles. CONCLUSIONS BTX injections had good therapeutic outcomes for our TMD patients. However, most patients require multiple injection visits.

Abstract
Fibromyalgia and small fibre neuropathy are two diseases leading to chronic widespread pain, and it is difficult to differentiate them in order to provide appropriate care. In this review, we will describe the pathophysiological and clinical differences between fibromyalgia and small fibre neuropathy. In fibromyalgia, pain is increased by dysregulation of central pain processing while small fibre neuropathy pain is related to loss or dysfunction of intraepidermal small nerve fibres. Higher pain intensity; stabbing pain and paraesthesia; allodynia; dry eyes/mouth; changed pattern or sweating on body; skin colour alterations/modifications; reduced hair/nail growth on lower extremities; warm or cold hypoesthesia could be more common in small fibre neuropathy whereas headache or temporo-mandibular disorder point toward fibromyalgia. Length-dependent distribution of pain is common in small fibre neuropathy but can also affect the whole body. Anxiety or depression are common in these two diseases, but post-traumatic stress disorder and physical or sexual abuse in childhood or adulthood suggest fibromyalgia. Inflammatory disease or musculoskeletal disease is frequently reported with fibromyalgia whereas metabolic disorders (especially diabetes mellitus), neurotoxic exposure, Sjogren's syndrome, sarcoidosis, HIV are the main diseases associated with small fibre neuropathy. Skin biopsy, quantitative sensory testing, laser evoked potentials, confocal corneal microscopy or electrochemical skin conductance can help to discriminate between fibromyalgia and small fibre neuropathy.

Abstract
Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are a group of diseases in the oral and maxillofacial region that can manifest as acute or chronic persistent pain, affecting millions of people worldwide. Although hundreds of studies have explored mechanisms and treatments underlying TMD, multiple pathogenic factors and diverse clinical manifestations make it still poorly managed. Appropriate animal models are helpful to study the pathogenesis of TMD and explore effective treatment measures. At present, due to the high cost of obtaining large animals, rodents and rabbits are often used to prepare TMD animal models. Over the past decade, various animal models have been intensively developed to understand neurobiological and molecular mechanisms of TMD, and seek effective treatments. Although these models cannot carry out all clinical features, they are valuable in revealing the mechanisms of TMD and creating curative access. Currently, there are multitudinous animal models of TMD research. They can be constructed in different means and summarized into four ways according to the various causes and symptoms, including chemical induction (intra-articular injection of ovalbumin, collagenase, formalin, vascular endothelial growth factor, intramuscular injection of complete Freund’s adjuvant, etc.), mechanical stress stimulation (passive mouth opening, change of chewing load), surgical operation (partial disc resection, joint disc perforation) and psychological stress induction. Here, we summarize and discuss different approaches of animal models for determining neurophysiological and mechanical mechanisms of TMD and assess their advantages and limitations, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Temporomandibular disorders (TMD) are characterised by complex symptomatology and their assessment can be enhanced using pain drawings (PD). OBJECTIVES To evaluate the location and extent of pain in people TMD using digital PD, and to explore their association with clinical features. Reliability of pain extent and pain location using PD was also assessed. METHODS Forty volunteers with TMD completed two consecutive digital PDs. Clinical features were captured from self-reported questionnaire. Additionally, secondary hyperalgesia was measured using the pressure pain threshold (PPT). The correlation between pain extent and clinical features was investigated using Spearman rank correlation coefficients. Reliability of pain extent was evaluated using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman plots. The Jaccard index was computed to assess the reliability of pain location. RESULTS Analysis of the PDs indicated that people with TMD commonly experience pain in other body regions including the neck, the shoulder and the low back. Except for PPT and pain catastrophising, all other clinical features were significantly correlated with pain extent. The ICCs of pain extent for all body charts were very high (ICCs 95% CI from 0.73 to 0.96), and Bland-Altman plots showed mean biases close to zero with narrow limits of agreement. The reliability of pain location was also supported by Jaccard index mean scores above 0.68. CONCLUSIONS People with TMD showed widespread pain, and pain extent was associated with pain intensity, neck and headache-related disability, depression, anxiety, hyperventilation and central sensitivity. The reliability of measuring pain extent and pain location was confirmed.

Abstract
Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and fibromyalgia (FM) have some clinical characteristics in common, for instance the chronic evolution, the pathophysiology incompletely understood and a multifactorial genesis. The incidence and the relationship between TMD and FM patients are the aims of this review. A MEDLINE and Pubmed search was performed for the key words “temporomandibular disorder” AND “fibromyalgia” from 2000 to present. A total of 19 papers were included in our review, accounting for 5449 patients. Ten studies, reporting a total of 4945 patients with TMD, showed that only 16.5% of these patients had diagnosis of FM, whereas 12 studies, reporting a total of 504 patients with FM, demonstrated that 77.0% of these patients had diagnosis of TMD. A comorbid relationship exists between TMD and FM. The complexity of both diseases shows the importance of a multimodal and interdisciplinary.

Abstract
The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a synovial joint and thus is vulnerable to the afflictions that may affect other joints in the fields of rheumatology and orthopedics. Too often temporomandibular complaints are seen strictly as dental or orofacial concerns. Similarly, patients with known rheumatic disease may not have their TMJs included in routine screening and monitoring protocols. The purpose of this review is to highlight the rheumatic conditions likely to affect the TMJ and outline medical and surgical management in these patients with a focus on the need for continued patient reassessment and monitoring.

Abstract
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic widespread pain condition that overlaps with multiple comorbid health conditions and contributes to considerable patient distress. The aim of this review was to provide a systematic overview of psychiatric and chronic pain comorbidities among patients diagnosed with FM and to inform the development of recommendations for the design of clinical trials. Thirty-one, cross-sectional, clinical epidemiology studies that evaluated patients diagnosed with FM were included for review. None of the reviewed studies reported on the incidence of these comorbidities. Sample size-weighted prevalence estimates were calculated when prevalence data were reported in 2 or more studies for the same comorbid condition. The most prevalent comorbidity across all studies reviewed was depression/major depressive disorder (MDD) with over half of the patients included having this diagnosis in their lifetime (weighted prevalence up to 63%). In addition, nearly one-third of FM patients examined had current or lifetime bipolar disorder, panic disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Less common psychiatric disorders reported included generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and specific phobias (agoraphobia, social phobia). There were fewer studies that examined chronic pain comorbidities among FM patients, but when evaluated, prevalence was also high ranging from 39% to 76% (i.e., chronic tension-type or migraine headache, irritable bowel syndrome, myofascial pain syndrome, and temporomandibular disorders). The results of the review suggest that depression and chronic pain conditions involving head/jaw pain and IBS were elevated among FM patients compared to other conditions in the clinic-based studies. In contrast, anxiety-related disorders were much less common. Addressing the presence of these comorbid health conditions in clinical trials of treatments for FM would increase the generalizability and real-world applicability of FM research.

Is Irritable Bowel Syndrome Considered in Clinical Trials on Physical Therapy Applied to Patients with Temporo-Mandibular Disorders? A Scoping Review. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17228533.

Abstract
The aim of the current scoping review was to identify if the presence of irritable bowel syndrome was included as eligibility criteria of participants included in clinical trials investigating the effects of physical therapy in individuals with temporomandibular pain disorders (TMDs). A systematic electronic literature search in the Web of Science database was conducted. Scientifically relevant, randomized clinical trials (those cited in other studies at least 5 times, or clinical trials published in high-impact journals, i.e., first and second quartiles (Q1-Q2) of any category of the Journal Citation Report (JCR)) evaluating the effects of any physical therapy intervention in patients with TMDs were included. The Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the selected trials. Authors affiliated to a clinical or non-clinical institution, total number of citations, objective, sex/gender, age, and eligibility criteria in each article were extracted and analyzed independently by two authors. From a total of 98 identified articles, 12 and 19 clinical trials were included according to the journal citation criterion or JCR criterion, respectively. After removing duplicates, a total of 23 trials were included. The PEDro score ranged from 4 to 8 (mean: 6.26, SD: 1.48). Based on the eligibility criteria of the trials systematically reviewed, none considered the presence of comorbid irritable bowel syndrome in patients with TMDs. The comorbidity between TMDs and irritable bowel syndrome is not considered within the eligibility criteria of participants in highly cited clinical trials, or published in a high-impact journal, investigating the effects of physical therapy in TMDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent survey reported an association between fibromyalgia and overactive bladder. OBJECTIVE To carry out the first systematic case-controlled study to compare the level of overactive bladder symptoms in a group of fibromyalgia patients and a group of matched controls. METHODS The symptom-bother OAB-q8 questionnaire and Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR) were administered to 27 patients who fulfilled the revised diagnostic criteria for fibromyalgia of the American College of Rheumatology and to 26 healthy controls who had no history of suffering from fibromyalgia or any other rheumatological or neurological illness. RESULTS The groups were matched in respect of age, sex and ethnicity. None of the 53 subjects was taking medication, which might cause urinary urgency, none was suffering from, or had recently suffered from, a urinary tract infection and none had undergone a previous operative procedure on the lower urinary tract. Twenty-five (93%) patients had evidence of an overactive bladder during the previous four weeks, compared with five (19%) of the control group (p < 0.001). In terms of symptom severity, the mean (standard error) OAB-q8 score was 24.4 (1.5) in the fibromyalgia patients and 10.8 (4.5) in the controls (p < 0.001). Furthermore, the total OAB-q8 and FIQR scores were positively correlated (rs = 0.727, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This systematic controlled study confirms that fibromyalgia is associated with overactive bladder symptoms. The relatively high prevalence of 93% indicates that overactive bladder is an important urological association of fibromyalgia and should be routinely assessed in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This case-control study aimed to investigate associations between craniofacial pain complaints, somatoform symptoms and chronic diseases. DESIGN 306 subjects were included in this study (174 patients and 132 healthy subjects). The evaluation consisted of demographic data, number of functional and nonfunctional chronic diseases, medications, somatoform symptoms (xerostomia, dry mucosa, numbness, gastrointestinal complaints), and pain complaints with associated characteristics (number of pain areas, sensation of tired face, bruxism, sleep disturbances, masticatory musculoskeletal evaluation). Statistical analysis included descriptive data, tested with chi-square, Fisher's exact, nonparametric Kolmogorov-Smirnoff, Student's t-test, Pearson's coefficient, two-steps cluster classification, multivariate linear and LASSO regressions. RESULTS Functional disorders were prevalent in 111 (63.8 %) patients with facial pain. They were taking more medication (p < 0.001) and had more sleep disturbances (p < 0.001), higher xerostomia scores (p < 0.001) and more gastrointestinal complaints (p < 0.001) than controls. There was a positive correlation between the functional score and the number of cranial areas with headache (R2 = 0.266, <0.001). The regression models for facial pain (R2 = 0.632), craniofacial pain (R2 = 0.623) and headache (R2 = 0.252) showed significant dependency of functional disorders (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION craniofacial pain was associated with functional diseases and somatoform symptoms. This association needs further investigation to understand the role of those disorders in craniofacial pain, considering that pain complaints are common somatoform and functional symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the association between comorbidities and chronic diseases and neuropathic and nonneuropathic orofacial pain diagnoses to suggest subclassifications of disease. STUDY DESIGN This was a cross-sectional, retrospective, case-control study. We evaluated 174 patients with orofacial pain and 132 controls by using a systematic protocol that consisted of medical history and demographic, pain, and orofacial characteristics. Patients were grouped according to their diagnosis-neuropathic or non-neuropathic pain; medical comorbidities; and exclusion criteria. Analyses included Z-score normalization, χ2 test, Fisher's exact test, 1-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Student t test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, 2-step clustering, and logistic regression at 95% confidence level. RESULTS Functional chronic diseases were prevalent and correlated with pain and orofacial features. Three groups were identified in the cluster analysis: neuropathic facial pain, other orofacial pain syndromes, and fibromyalgia/temporomandibular disorders (TMDs). Logistic regression showed that hypothyroidism and gastritis were predictors for nonneuropathic orofacial conditions. Psychiatric diseases and gastritis were more prevalent among patients with generalized pain syndromes and TMDs and less prevalent among patients with neuropathic pain. CONCLUSIONS Functional comorbidities were associated with orofacial and dental features and may correspond to multimorbidity states in patients with chronic orofacial pain. The findings support the hypothesis that nonneuropathic orofacial pain syndromes could be functional disorders.

Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this project was to develop an instructional video that demonstrates a standardized clinical examination on patients with suspected temporomandibular disorders (TMD). After viewing the video, the learner should be knowledgeable about the examination steps and application of the examination techniques. Methods: The instructional video was created by two dentists who are experienced in assessing patients with suspected TMD. Additionally, both examiners were calibrated according to the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD). The instructional video was divided into chapters. Various camera angles, key points, image enlargements, and replays were used to better depict essential aspects of the assessment. Background noise was reduced to a minimum. Results: The instructional video was modified and completed in two phases: the first by an experienced dentist and the second by a dentist specialized in TMD. The final video includes nine chapters and is 26.5 minutes in length (https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.k8r7qc1). Conclusion: Divided into chapters, this German instructional video shows an optimally timed, standardized clinical assessment of patients with suspected TMD.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Background: Diagnostic tools are necessary for the anamnesis and examination of orofacial pain, in order to fulfill diagnostic criteria and to screen potential causes of pain. Objective: To evaluate the Orofacial Pain Clinic Questionnaire (EDOF-HC) in the assessment and diagnosis of orofacial pain. Methods: Overall, 142 patients were evaluated and classified according to the criteria of the International Headache Society and International Association for the Study of Pain. All of them were evaluated with the EDOF-HC questionnaire, which consists of the orofacial and medical history, as well as the orofacial examination. Data were statistically analyzed with chi-square test and Bonferroni correction, one-way ANOVA with Tukey post hoc test, the two-step cluster and decision tree methods. Results: There were diferences in pain descriptors, pain in maximum mouth opening, number of trigger points, and history of previous surgery between the groups, which were classified into trigeminal neuralgia, burning mouth syndrome, temporomandibular disorders and trigeminal posttraumatic neuropathic pain with classification analysis. Conclusions: The EDOF-HC is a clinical supportive tool for the assessment of orofacial pain. The instrument may be used to support data collection from anamnesis and examination of patients according to the diagnostic criteria of most common orofacial conditions. It is also useful in the investigation of local and systemic abnormalities and contributes for the diagnosis of conditions that depend on exclusion criteria.

Abstract
Chronic primary pain (CPP) is a group of diseases with long-term pain and functional disorders but without structural or specific tissue pathologies. CPP is becoming a serious health problem in clinical practice due to the unknown cause of intractable pain and high cost of health care yet has not been satisfactorily addressed. During the past decades, a significant role for the descending pain modulation and alterations due to specific diseases of CPP has been emphasized. It has been widely established that central sensitization and alterations in neuroplasticity induced by the enhancement of descending pain facilitation and/or the impairment of descending pain inhibition can explain many chronic pain states including CPP. The descending serotonergic neurons in the raphe nuclei target receptors along the descending pain circuits and exert either pro- or antinociceptive effects in different pain conditions. In this review, we summarize the possible underlying descending pain regulation mechanisms in CPP and the role of serotonin, thus providing evidence for potential application of analgesic medications based on the serotonergic system in CPP patients.
