Effect of Personality and Pain Catastrophizing on Postoperative Analgesia Following Cesarean Section: A Prospective Cohort Study. J Pain Res 2024; 17:11-19. [PMID: 38192365 PMCID: PMC10771724 DOI: 10.2147/jpr.s443230] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to investigate the effects of different psychological personalities and pain catastrophizing levels on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing cesarean section. Patients and Methods Puerperas who underwent cesarean section at our hospital between January and August 2023 were recruited into the study and assessed using the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised Short Scale (EPQRSC) and Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS). Data on the numerical pain intensity at rest and during activity 24 h after surgery, number and dosage of analgesia pumps, and satisfaction with analgesia were recorded. According to the numerical pain score during activity 24 h post-operation, the patients were divided into the analgesia incomplete group (≥4) and control group (<4). Univariate analysis, Spearman correlation analysis, and binary logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the influence of personality characteristics and PCS on postoperative analgesia. Results A total of 778 women were included in the study. The incidence of inadequate analgesia was 89.8%. The satisfaction rate of analgesia was 66.8%. Univariate analysis showed that extraversion; neuroticism; PCS; numbers of previous cesarean delivery; ASA; analgesic satisfaction; and 24-h analgesia pump compressions and dosage were associated with postoperative analgesia after cesarean section (P<0.05). Using binary logistic regression analysis, the first cesarean section (odds ratio [OR]=0.056, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.913-19.174), the number of 24-h analgesic pump compressions (OR=8.464, 95% CI=0.356-0.604), extraversion (OR=0.667, 95% CI=0.513-0.866), neuroticism (OR=1.427, 95% CI=1.104-1.844), and PCS (OR=7.718, 95% CI=0.657-0.783) were factors affecting postoperative analgesia. Conclusion The incidence of inadequate analgesia after a cesarean section was high (89.8% on the first day after surgery). Formulating accurate analgesia programs for women undergoing cesarean section with extraversion, neuroticism personality characteristics, and pain catastrophizing behaviors is necessary for improving their postoperative analgesia effects and satisfaction and promoting postpartum comfort.

Brain Behav Immun Health 2023; 34:100707. [PMID: 38020479 PMCID: PMC10679487 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbih.2023.100707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In this pilot study, a human intravenous injection of low-dose endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) model was used to test if fibromyalgia is associated with altered immune responses to Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) activation. Eight women with moderately-severe fibromyalgia and eight healthy women were administered LPS at 0.1 ng/kg in session one and 0.4 ng/kg in session two. Blood draws were collected hourly to characterize the immune response. The primary analytes of interest, leptin and fractalkine, were assayed via commercial radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits, respectively. Exploratory analyses were performed on 20 secreted cytokine assays by multiplex cytokine panels, collected hourly. Exploratory analyses were also performed on testosterone, estrogen, and cortisol levels, collected hourly. Additionally, standard clinical complete blood counts with differential (CBC-D) were collected before LPS administration and at the end of the session. The fibromyalgia group demonstrated enhanced leptin and suppressed fractalkine responses to LPS administration. In the exploratory analyses, the fibromyalgia group showed a lower release of IFN-γ, CXCL10, IL-17A, and IL-12 and higher release of IL-15, TARC, MDC, and eotaxin than the healthy group. The results of this study suggest that fibromyalgia may involve an altered immune response to TLR4 activation.

Abstract
Objective This study investigates the effect of the Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire (PSQ) in guiding patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) on postoperative analgesia in women undergoing cesarean section. Methods A total of 160 women who were to undergo a cesarean section under combined spinal and epidural anaesthesia were included in this study. Women with a preoperative PSQ <4 were randomly divided into a low pain-sensitive control group (LC group), and a low pain-sensitive observation group (LO group), and women with preoperative PSQ >6 were randomly divided into a high pain-sensitive control group (HC group) and a high pain-sensitive observation group (HO group). After the surgery, patients received the pump butorphanol concentration was 3.5 µg·kg-1·h-1 in the LC and HC groups, 3.0 µg·kg-1·h-1 in the LO group and 4.0 µg·kg-1·h-1 in the HO group.To compare the analgesic effects of postoperative PCIA and postoperative recovery in women. Results Wound pain and uterine contraction pain VAS scores at rest and activity were significantly lower in the LC group than in the LO group at 4 and 8 h postoperatively (P<0.05). Similarly, wound pain and uterine contraction pain VAS scores at rest and activity were significantly lower in the HO group than in the HC group at 8, 12, and 24 h postoperatively (P<0.05). The Ramsay scores were significantly higher in the LC than in the LO groups at 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h postoperatively (P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference between the Ramsay scores in the HC group and the HO group. There was no statistical difference in any of the post-operative recoveries (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared to the weight-based postoperative PCIA, the PSQ-based postoperative PCIA has better analgesic effects and can improve maternal satisfaction with postoperative analgesia.

Abstract
Pain and obesity, as well as their associated impairments, are major health concerns. Understanding the relationship between the two is the focus of a growing body of research. However, early researches attribute increased mechanical stress from excessive weight as the main factor of obesity-related pain, which not only over-simplify the association, but also fail to explain some controversial outcomes arising from clinical investigations. This review focuses on neuroendocrine and neuroimmune modulators importantly involved in both pain and obesity, analyzing nociceptive and anti-nociceptive mechanisms based on neuroendocrine pathways including galanin, ghrelin, leptin and their interactions with other neuropeptides and hormone systems which have been reported to play roles in pain and obesity. Mechanisms of immune activities and metabolic alterations are also discussed, due to their intense interactions with neuroendocrine system and crucial roles in the development and maintenance of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. These findings have implications for health given rising rates of obesity and pain-related diagnoses, by providing novel weight-control and analgesic therapies targeted on specific pathways.

Abstract
Background: Individualized pain therapy conforms to the concept of precision medicine and contributes to adequate pain management after surgery. Preoperative biomarkers associated with postoperative pain may instruct anesthesiologists to improve personalized suitable analgesia. Therefore, it is essential to explore the association between preoperative proteins and postoperative acute pain using the proteomics platform. Methods: In this study, the 24 hours postoperative sufentanil consumption of 80 male patients with gastric cancer was ranked. Patients with sufentanil consumption in the lowest 12% were included in the sufentanil low consumption group, while patients with sufentanil consumption in the highest 12% were included in the sufentanil high consumption group. The secretion of serum proteins in both groups was analyzed using label-free proteomics technology. The results were validated by ELISA. Results: Proteomics identified 29 proteins that were significantly differentially expressed between groups. ELISA confirmed that secretion of TNC and IGFBP2 was down-regulated in the SLC group. The differential proteins were mainly extracellular and were involved in several terms, including calcium ion binding, laminin-1 binding, and so on. Pathway analysis showed that they were mainly enriched in focal adhesion and extracellular matrix-receptor interaction. The protein-protein interaction network analysis showed 22 proteins that interacted with other proteins. F13B had the strongest correlation with sufentanil consumption and its AUC value was 0.859. Conclusions: Several differential proteins are associated with postoperative acute pain and are involved in ECM-related processes, inflammation, and blood coagulation cascades. F13B may be a novel marker for postoperative acute pain. Our results may benefit postoperative pain management.

Abstract
Although pain has lower mortality rates than cancer, diabetes and stroke, pain is a predominate source of distress and disability. However, the management of pain remains an enormous problem. Many drugs used to pain treatment have more or less side effects. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic target is critical for the treatment of pain. Notably, studies have shown that adipocytokines have a dual role in pain. Growing shreds of evidence shows that the levels of adipocytokines are upregulated or downregulated in the development of pain. In addition, substantial evidence indicates that regulation of adipocytokines levels in models of pain attenuates or promotes pain behaviors. In this review, we summarized and discussed the effect of adipocytokines in pain. These evidence indicates that adipocytokines attenuate or promote pain behaviors through interacting with their receptors, activating serotonin pathway, interacting with μ-opioid receptor, activating microglia, infiltrating macrophage and so on. Overall, adipocytokines have some potential in treating pain, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear and need to be further studied.
