Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for working memory deficits in chronic pain: A systematic review and meta-analysis

TL;DR: A consistent, moderate significant effect is shown in this systematic review and meta‐analysis of 24 studies evaluating behavioural and/or physiological outcomes in a chronic pain group and a control group and high heterogeneity within the field was found.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effects of Graded Motor Imagery and Its Components on Chronic Pain: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: The results suggest thatGMI and mirror therapy alone may be effective, although this conclusion is based on limited evidence, and further rigorous studies are needed to investigate the effects of GMI and its components on a wider chronic pain population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Do people with chronic pain have impaired executive function? A meta-analytical review.

TL;DR: A small to moderate impairment in executive function performance was found in people with chronic pain across cognitive components, although all studies had a high risk of bias.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessing tactile acuity in rheumatology and musculoskeletal medicine - how reliable are two-point discrimination tests at the neck, hand, back and foot?

TL;DR: Individual clinicians are able to reliably assess TPD threshold at the neck, back, hand and foot using mechanical callipers, which suggests clinicians should be cautious when interpreting changes in tactile acuity in individual patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
