Abstract
BACKGROUND Pain is linked to disability, but how multisite musculoskeletal pain leads to disability over time is not well elaborated. OBJECTIVE To examine the associations of multisite musculoskeletal pain with disability among a nationally representative cohort. DESIGN We used data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS) 2015-22. Disability was assessed by basic activities of daily living (ADL) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). PARTICIPANTS A total of 5557 individuals with multisite musculoskeletal pain dwelling in the community were included in this study. METHODS Group-based trajectory models were applied to identify distinct profiles of disability in ADL and IADL. Design-based logistic regressions were used to examine associations among multisite musculoskeletal pain, disability, and dual trajectory group memberships, adjusted for sociodemographic, health status, behavioral, and mental characteristics. RESULTS Persons who experienced multisite musculoskeletal pain were at higher risk of disability in ADL and IADL. We identified five heterogeneous disability trajectories and named them based on baseline levels and rates of increase over time. Approximately, 52.42% of older adults with multisite musculoskeletal pain were in trajectories with ADL and IADL declines, and 33.60% experienced a rapid decline. Multisite musculoskeletal pain was associated with elevated relative risk for the adverse disability trajectories, which generally increases with multisite musculoskeletal pain frequency and number of sites. CONCLUSIONS Persons with multisite musculoskeletal pain had a higher risk of disability. It is essential to adopt effective pain management strategies to maintain the independent living ability of older adults and to realize active aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) is common after stroke. The pain perception may exacerbate changes in the motor behavior of the ipsi-lesional upper limb, contributing to the functional decline of an individual's motor performance. OBJECTIVE This study evaluates the influence of pain perception on the aiming movements performed with the ipsilesional upper limb in individuals with unilateral chronic stroke. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted with 41 participants divided into three groups: 1) stroke with contralesional shoulder pain ≥ 3 by the Visual Numerical Pain Scale (SPSG; n = 13); 2) stroke no shoulder pain (nSPSG; n = 14); and 3) healthy control (CTG; n = 14) matched by sex and age. Individuals with stroke were matched for the severity of sensorimotor impairment by the Fugl-Meyer upper limb subscale and the injured hemisphere side. Stroke groups performed aiming movements with the ipsilesional upper limb and the CTG with the corresponding limb using a pen tip on the sensitive surface of a digitizing tablet. Performance across groups was compared by one-way analysis of variance, considering the time since injury as a covariate. The planning and execution variables of the movement trajectory were analyzed, and the significance was set at 5%. RESULTS Trajectories of the SPSG were slower (p = .010; η2 = 0.22), were less smooth (p = .002; η2 = 0.30), had more directional error (p = .002; η2 = 0.28), and were less accurate (p = .034; η2 = 0.17) than the CTG. The nSPSG and CTG showed similar performance. CONCLUSIONS The perception of pain impairs aiming movements performed with the ipsilesional upper limb in individuals with unilateral chronic stroke.

Association between elasticity of tissue and pain pressure threshold in the tender points present in subjects with fibromyalgia: a cross-sectional study. Sci Rep 2023; 13:22003. [PMID: 38086996 PMCID: PMC10716166 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-49550-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a multicomponent illness and despite its worldwide prevalence, a complete understanding of its aetiology and pathogenesis remains unclear. The goal of the study is to analyze the level of association between elastic properties of tissue measured by strain elastography (SEL) and pain pressure threshold (PPT) in the characteristic painful points described in patients suffering from FM. This was a cross-sectional, observational study. A sample comprised of 42 subjects with FM was recruited from a private care centre. The occiput, low cervical, trapezius, supraspinatus, paraspinous, lateral pectoral, second rib, lateral epicondyle, medial epicondyle, gluteus, greater trochanter, knee, and anterior tibial PPTs were bilaterally assessed using a standard pressure algometer and elastic properties of tissue were evaluated by SEL. Linear regression analysis showed significant associations between SEL and dominant trapezius PPT (β = 0.487, 95% CI [0.045, 0.930], p = 0.032) after adjustments for the age, body mass index, and menopause status (higher SEL and higher pain sensitivity). No significant associations between SEL and the other PPTs variables were found in women diagnosed with FM. The PPT of the dominant trapezius is associated with SEL measurements in subjects suffering from FM. More studies are required to fully explain the underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Objectives To investigate the associations between risk factors and depression symptoms in ischemic stroke (IS) survivors and the effect of IS survivors' depression status and functional outcomes on caregiver burden in Chengdu, China. Methods In this cross-sectional study, we recruited a convenience sample of patients with IS and paired caregivers living in Chengdu from February 2022 to May 2022. Depression symptoms were assessed using the 17-item Chinese Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, the social support of patients was assessed using the perceived social support scale (PSSS), caregiver burden was assessed using the Zarit burden interview (ZBI). Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the data between risk factors and depression symptoms, and multiple linear regression models were constructed to examine the depression symptoms and functional outcomes of stroke survivors, and caregiver burden. Results In total, 966 IS survivors and paired caregivers were included in this study. Among IS survivors, 35.51% (343/966) experienced depression. Age [adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 1.02; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.00-1.04; p = 0.036], the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (aOR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.47-1.68; p < 0.001), and PSSS score (aOR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.84-0.89; p < 0.001) were associated with an increased risk of depression. The NIHSS score (b = 2.57, p < 0.001), patients' depression status (b = 2.54, p < 0.001), duration of care (b = 0.359, p = 0.006), and social support of caregivers (b = -0.894, p = 0.038) were significantly associated with the ZBI score. Conclusion The PSSS score was a major risk factor for the development of depression in IS survivors, and patients' depression status and severe functional deficits had a negative impact on the ZBI score of the main caregivers. Social support can reduce the ZBI score.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To longitudinally investigate the relationships between neck/arm disability and pain profile measures in individuals with chronic nonspecific neck pain (NSNP) at baseline, one month, and six months after a standardized physiotherapy intervention. A secondary aim was to compare pain sensitivity of individuals with chronic NSNP at baseline to healthy controls. METHODS A total of sixty-eight individuals with chronic NSNP and healthy controls were recruited. Neck disability index (NDI), the 11-item disabilities of the arm, shoulder, and hand questionnaire (QuickDASH), temporal summation (TS), pressure pain thresholds (PPTs), pain intensity and pain extent were assessed in individuals with chronic NSNP. For the cross-sectional assessment, TS and PPTs were compared to healthy controls. RESULTS After following a standardized physiotherapy intervention, local and distal PPTs to the neck region decreased at one and six month follow-ups, respectively. Pain extent decreased at one and six months. Furthermore, a positive correlation between neck/arm disability and pain intensity was found at baseline, whereas moderate positive correlations (e.g., between NDI and pain extent) at baseline, one and six month follow-ups and negative correlations at six months (e.g., between arm disability and PPTs) were found. DISCUSSION Overall, these findings indicate that pain sensitivity can worsen following treatment despite reduced pain extent and unchanged neck disability and pain intensity scores over a six-month period in individuals with chronic NSNP.

Effect of Electroacupuncture on Shoulder Subluxation in Poststroke Patients with Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain: A Sham-Controlled Study Using Multidimensional Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Assessment. Pain Res Manag 2021; 2021:5329881. [PMID: 34840636 PMCID: PMC8626186 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5329881] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2021] [Revised: 10/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to use multidimensional musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging technique to investigate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on shoulder subluxation in poststroke patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain. METHODS In this prospective single-blind, randomized, sham-controlled study, thirty-four patients with shoulder subluxation and hemiplegic shoulder pain were recruited and randomly assigned into the EA group or the sham EA (SEA) group. In the EA group, EA was applied to the Jian yu (LI15), Bi nao (LI14), Jian zhen (SI9), and Jian liao (TE14) acupoints. In the SEA group, the EA was applied 15 mm away from the Lou gu (SP7), Di ji (SP8), Jiao xin (KI8), and Zhu bin (KI9) acupoints. Both groups underwent treatment 30 minutes/day, five days a week, for two weeks using dense waves with a frequency of 2/100 Hz. A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment in reducing shoulder pain. Musculoskeletal ultrasound was used to evaluate the changes of measures of shoulder subluxation in multidimensions (i.e., the acromiohumeral distance, AHD; acromion-greater tuberosity, AGT; and acromion-lesser tuberosity, ALT). Both the within- and between-groups treatment effects were assessed. RESULTS The pain intensity measured by VAS and shoulder subluxation measured by musculoskeletal ultrasound (i.e., AHD, AGT, and ALT) showed significant (p < 0.05) within-group difference in both groups. The between-group difference appeared in the pain intensity (p < 0.05), while it disappeared in the three measures of shoulder subluxation (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Using VAS for measuring pain intensity and multidimensional musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging technique for measuring shoulder subluxation, this study finds that the hemiplegic shoulder pain can be improved significantly by the EA while the shoulder subluxation cannot be. Our findings further reveal the analgesic mechanism of EA on hemiplegic shoulder pain following stroke.

Abstract
Anxiety and depression are common mental illness in stroke caregivers, resulting in significant stress to the emotion health of caregivers. Caregivers’ emotion can seriously affect the recovery rate of stroke patient, therefore, how to control and affect the caregivers’ anxiety and depression is of great importance. Here three multiple centers observation and validation study were performed to screen out the risk factors for development of anxiety and depression in main family caregiver, and the effect of anxiety and depression of family caregivers on 6-month mortality of patients with moderate-severe stroke. The severity of the stroke, the duration of care time and the medical payment associated with increased risk of anxiety and depression. Anxiety and depression of main family caregivers are associated with increased risk 6-month mortality of patients with moderate-severe stroke. Therefore, the support provided to the family caregivers might have positive effect on prognosis of the patients with stroke.
