Journal ArticleDOI

Discordance between pain and radiographic severity in knee osteoarthritis: Findings from quantitative sensory testing of central sensitization

TL;DR: The results suggest that central sensitization in knee OA is especially apparent among patients with reports of high levels of clinical pain in the absence of moderate-to-severe radiographic evidence of pathologic changes of knee Oa.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SBSM Guide to Actigraphy Monitoring: Clinical and Research Applications

TL;DR: The SBSM Guide to Actigraphy Monitoring: Clinical and Research Applications is a guide to actigraphy monitoring for clinical and research applications that helps clinicians and researchers better understand the role ofigraphy in health and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep disorders and their association with laboratory pain sensitivity in temporomandibular joint disorder.

TL;DR: High rates of PI and sleep apnea highlight the need to refer TMD patients complaining of sleep disturbance for polysomnographic evaluation and suggest that PI may be linked with central sensitivity and could play an etiologic role in idiopathic pain disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Situational Versus Dispositional Measurement of Catastrophizing: Associations With Pain Responses in Multiple Samples

TL;DR: Higher levels of situational catastrophizing were associated with lower pain thresholds and higher pain ratings across all 3 samples, and a role for measuring catastrophize related to specific, definable events is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sleep, Pain Catastrophizing, and Central Sensitization in Knee Osteoarthritis Patients With and Without Insomnia

TL;DR: Osteoarthritis (OA), a chronic degenerative joint disorder, is characterized by joint pain and emerging research demonstrates that a significant number of patients evidence central sensitization (CS), a hyperexcitability in nociceptive pathways, which is known to amplify and maintain clinical pain.
