AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Objectives: The present study sought to examine associations between the pain-catastrophizing subcomponents and multiple pain-related outcomes in Japanese individuals with chronic pain.
Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed with 213 chronic pain outpatients. The participants were recruited from 3 units at a university hospital and from a pain clinic at a municipal hospital. Study measures were used to assess pain catastrophizing, anxiety, depression, pain interference, and pain severity.
Results: Path analysis with multiple pain-related outcomes while controlling for age and gender revealed that the Helplessness subcomponent was associated with anxiety, depression, pain interference, and pain severity. The Magnification subcomponent was related to anxiety and depression, and the Rumination subcomponent accounted for the variance of pain interference.
Discussion: The present results suggested the important role of helplessness across cultural backgrounds. It also provides guidance on the application of cognitive behavioral techniques for chronic pain management in Japan.

Fenamates are the most crucial non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) used to treat pain-related diseases. The clinically prescribed drugs of the fenamate group include mefenamic acid, tolfenamic acid, meclofenamic acid, flufenamic acid, and niflumic acid. Due to their widespread use, all these drugs are considered as the most common water and sewerage pollutants.

To investigate the relationships among neuropathic pain (NP), pain catastrophizing (PC), and central sensitization (CS) in relation to functional status and radiological damage in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). This cross-sectional study included knee OA patients derived from an observational cohort. The Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the relationship between the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the PainDetect Questionnaire (PDQ), Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI), and Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS).

Cardiovascular Department, Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan, Indonesia.
Background: Post-infarct ventricular septal rupture (PI-VSR) is a rare complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) but has very serious implications. Managing PI-VSR using transcatheter closure (TCC) presents varying challenges depending on the patient's condition. The aim of this study is to present a highly challenging case of multiple VSRs as a complication of AMI.

Background: Pain catastrophizing, or the interpretation of pain as unbearable or intolerable, can increase pain-related anxiety and severity. High levels of pain catastrophizing have also been linked to substance use, particularly for substances with analgesic properties. Importantly, behavioral treatments can reduce pain catastrophizing, making them promising interventions for mitigating pain-related substance use.
