Patients with fibromyalgia in Finnish healthcare center - one-year follow up
CONCLUSION: With these results, we cannot conclude that ÖMPSQ predicts the patient's severity of symptoms. On the contrary, we can conclude that antidepressants and/or psychological therapy might reduce fibromyalgia symptoms for depressed patients with fibromyalgia. Patients with fibromyalgia might benefit from clinical evaluation and modifications to the treatment plan if necessary.PMID:37738389 | DOI:10.1080/02813432.2023.2259960

Widespread pain with nociplastic features is an independent predictor of low physical activity in people with multiple sclerosis
Exploring the relationship between underlying pain mechanism and physical activity could inform interventions to optimize physical activity in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). This cross-sectional nationwide survey examined whether pain phenotype is a significant predictor of self-reported physical activity in PwMS. The study included 938 persons with self-reported diagnosis of MS (93% reported neurologist-diagnosed MS) who completed surveys of demographic, clinical information, pain intensity, indicators of underlying pain mechanisms (Fibromyalgia Survey Criteria and painDETECT), and physical activity (Godin Leisur...

Is low-dose naltrexone effective in chronic pain management?
J Fam Pract. 2023 Sep;72(7):320-321. doi: 10.12788/jfp.0654.ABSTRACTYES. Low-dose naltrexone is as effective as amitriptyline in the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy and has a superior safety profile (strength of recommendation [SOR], B; single randomized controlled trial [RCT]). Low-dose naltrexone significantly reduced pain by 32% in inflammatory conditions and 44% in neuropathic conditions (SOR, B; single retrospective cohort study). Doses as low as 5.4 mg were found to reduce pain in 95% of patients with fibromyalgia (SOR, B; single prospective dose-response study).PMID:37729143 | DOI:10.12788/jfp.0654

A Randomized, Controlled Neuroimaging Trial of Cognitive ‐Behavioral Therapy for Fibromyalgia Pain
ConclusionOur results suggest clinically important and CBT-specific associations between somatosensory/motor- and salience-processing brain regions and the default mode network in chronic pain. These patterns of connectivity may contribute to individual differences (and treatment-related changes) in somatic self-awareness. CBT appears to provide clinical benefits at least partially by reducing pain-related catastrophizing and producing adaptive alterations in default mode network functional connectivity.

Catalogues of EQ-5D-3L Health-Related Quality of Life Scores for 199 Chronic Conditions and Health Risks for Use in the UK and the USA
ConclusionsThis study provides comprehensive catalogues of UK/US EQ-5D-3L HRQoL utilities. Results are relevant in cost-effectiveness analysis, for NICE submissions, and for comparing and identifying facets of disease burden.

Efficacy of a gluten-free diet in reducing the widespread pain index and symptom severity scale in patients affected by fibromyalgia
CONCLUSIONS: A GFD improved FM symptoms evaluated with WPI and SS. This was confirmed for the first time, also with a rechallenge of the GFD that followed a non-restricted gluten-containing diet.PMID:37721353 | DOI:10.4081/reumatismo.2023.1530

Oxidative stress may be a contributing factor in fibromyalgia patients' pain mechanisms
CONCLUSIONS: Reactive oxygen species have several negative impacts on the human body. As a result of the measurements we analyzed, the relationship between FM and oxidative stress should be studied in terms of disease progression and may help improve the treatment process.PMID:37721351 | DOI:10.4081/reumatismo.2023.1550

The Relationship between Pain Catastrophizing and Cognitive Function in Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: Although evidence exists for the relationship between cognitive function and PC, there is a lack of rigorous research to indicate the strength of this relationship and the specific cognitive functions affected. The literature lacks appropriate populations needed to investigate clinically relevant PC and is limited by heterogeneous neuropsychological test batteries. Future research should include populations demonstrating the behaviors being studied, intentional analysis of outcomes, and appropriate cognitive tests.PMID:37719894 | PMC:PMC10505081 | DOI:10.1155/2023/5851450

Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia are indistinguishable by their cerebrospinal fluid proteomes
CONCLUSION: This supports the notion that ME/CFS and fibromyalgia as currently defined are not distinct entities.Key messageME/CFS and fibromyalgia as currently defined are not distinct entities.Unbiased quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics can be used to discover cerebrospinal fluid proteins that are biomarkers for a condition such as we are studying.PMID:37722890 | DOI:10.1080/07853890.2023.2208372

Psychological variables associated with resistance to treatment with serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors in fibromyalgia
CONCLUSIONS: FM T[+] and FM T[-] differ in clinical presentation and psychological features. The levels of affective temperaments, personality and schizotypal traits are associated with lack response to SNRI in FM.PMID:37722212 | DOI:10.1016/j.jpsychores.2023.111493
