Importance of Pain Acceptance in Relation to Headache Disability and Pain Interference in Women With Migraine and Overweight/Obesity
ConclusionsHigher pain willingness, independent of degree of both migraine severity and overweight, is associated with lower headache‐related disability and general pain interference in treatment‐seeking women with migraine and overweight/obesity. Future studies are needed to clarify direction of causality and test whether strategies designed to help women increase pain willingness, or relinquish ineffective efforts to control pain, can improve functional outcomes in women who have migraine and overweight/obesity.

A close association of freedom from pain, migraine-related functional disability, and other outcomes: results of a post hoc analysis of randomized lasmiditan studies SAMURAI and SPARTAN
ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that, at 2  h post treatment, patients who were pain free were more likely to achieve other outcomes including freedom from their MBS, freedom from migraine-related functional disability, and improved PGIC compared to those with mild pain, confirming that 2 h pain freedom is more robustly associated with o ther clinical outcomes than the 2 h mild pain endpoint.Trial RegistrationSAMURAI (NCT02439320); SPARTAN (NCT02605174).

Toll-like Receptor 4 and comorbid pain in Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome: A Multidisciplinary Approach to the Study of Chronic Pelvic Pain research network study.
CONCLUSIONS: TLR-4 inflammatory responses in PBMCs are a marker of widespread pain in IC/BPS, and should be explored in other conditions characterized by medically unexplained pain. PMID: 25771510 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Specific and number of comorbidities are associated with increased levels of temporomandibular pain intensity and duration
Conclusion This study shows that the number of comorbidities is positively associated with TMD pain duration and intensity. The presence of specific conditions, such as migraine and chronic fatigue syndrome, is associated with an increase in TMD intensity and duration.

Capsaicin-sensitive C- and A-fibre nociceptors control long-term potentiation-like pain amplification in humans
In conclusion, all nociceptor subclasses contribute to high frequency stimulation-induced pain (with a relative contribution of C > A fibres, and an equal contribution of TRPV1-positive and TRPV1-negative fibres). TRPV1-positive C-fibres are the main inducers of both homotopic and heterotopic pain–long-term potentiation. TRPV1-positive A-fibres contribute substantially to the induction of heterotopic pain–long-term potentiation. TRPV1-negative C-fibres induce a component of homotopic self-facilitation but not heterotopic pain–long-term potentiation. TRPV1-negative A-fibres are the main afferents mediat...

The Role of Pain-related Fear and Pain Catastrophizing during Acute Spinal Cord Injury (P1.213)
Conclusions:Pain and harm-related psychological variables uniquely predicted pain, perceived disability, and depression in an SCI sample. These results are consistent with evidence from non-SCI samples with a variety of pain conditions. Although current findings are preliminary, they suggest that interventions targeting catastrophizing and pain-related fear may be beneficial following SCI.Disclosure: Dr. Schlitz Fortenberry has nothing to disclose.

CBT and CFT for Chronic Pain
AbstractPurpose of ReviewChronic pain is a widespread public and physical health crisis, as it is one of the most common reasons adults seek medical care and accounts for the largest medical reason for disability in the USA (Glombiewski et al., J Consult Clin Psychol. 86(6):533-545, 2018; Schemer et al., Eur J Pain. 23(3):526-538, 2019). Chronic pain is associated with decreased functional status, opioid dependence and substance abuse disorders, mental health crises, and overall lower perceived quality of life (Korff et al., J Pain. 17(10):1068-1080, 2016). For example, the leading cause of chronic pain and the leading cau...

Imploding and Exploding Migraine Headaches: Comparison of Methods to Diagnose Pain Directionality
ConclusionsThe assignment of headache directionality varied substantially depending upon the method of determination. The concordance between clinician assignment, patient‐self assignment via answering a written question, and patient self‐assignment via choosing a representative picture was weak. Improved methods of determining pain directionality are needed.

ALS : Pain in Addition to Anything Else (S20.002)
CONCLUSION :Pain is very frequent in spinal as well as in bulbar ALS patients, at all stages of disease. Because of all other debilitating symptoms, pain stay an underreported, underestimated and undertreated symptom. Nevertheless, unrelieved pain is a distressing phenomenon and need to be systematically considered.Disclosure: Dr. Guy Renouil has nothing to disclose. Dr. Cornut Chauvinc has nothing to disclose.

Concomitant Persistent Pain in Classical Trigeminal Neuralgia – Evidence for Different Subtypes
ConclusionsConcomitant persistent pain is very prevalent in TN and is not a consequence of paroxysmal pain. Findings support that the 3rd International Classification of Headache Disorders beta division of TN with and without concomitant persistent pain is clinically and scientifically important.

Chronic Temporomandibular Disorders: disability, pain intensity and fear of movement
ConclusionMixed chronic pain patients show greater craniomandibular and neck disability than patients diagnosed with chronic JP or MP. Neck disability predicted the variance of craniofacial pain and disability for patients with MP. Neck disability and kinesiophobia predicted the variance of craniofacial pain and disability for those with chronic mixed pain.

Back Pain with Leg Pain
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe clinical diagnostic dilemma of low back pain that is associated with lower limb pain is very common. In relation to back pain that radiates to the leg, the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) states: “Pain in the lower limb should be described specifically as either referred pain or radicular pain. In cases of doubt no implication should be made and the pain should be described as pain in the lower limb.”Recent FindingsBogduks ’ editorial in the journalPAIN (2009) helps us to differentiate and define the terms somatic referred pain, radicular pain, and radiculopathy. In...
