Abstract

Clinical, psychological and demographic variables have been investigated to determine factors involved in quality of life of patients with chronic pain. It has been stressed that chronic pain is more associated with beliefs about pain, than with pain intensity. The main aim of this retrospective cross-sectional study was to examine differences between postoperative beliefs about pain control, perception of pain and mood disturbances in patients treated operatively due to neck or lumbar discopathy and degenerative spine disease. Forty-four patients treated operatively due to lumbar and forty-one patients treated surgically due to cervical discopathy filled in the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-PL) and Beliefs about Pain Control Questionnaire (BPCQ-PL). Patients with lumbar and cervical discopathy additionally completed disease-specific outcome measures. The patient groups do not differ significantly in regards to BPCQ-PL, BDI-PL or VAS. Both study samples differ in regards to dependencies related to beliefs that pain is controlled by powerful others and about internal control of pain. Cognitive-behavioral interventions, concerning depression and beliefs about pain control, may be appropriate for ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
