Abstract
PURPOSE Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) commonly involves hand dexterity impairment. However, the factors affecting hand dexterity impairment are unknown and there is currently no established treatment. The purpose of the current study was to clarify factors influencing hand dexterity impairment in taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy using subjective and objective assessments. METHODS We assessed patient characteristics, treatment-related factors, subjective symptoms of CIPN (Patient Neurotoxicity Questionnaire [PNQ]), psychological symptoms, and upper limb dysfunction (Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand [Quick DASH]). Quantitative assessments were pinch strength, sensory threshold, hand dexterity impairment, and grip force control. Multiple regression analysis was performed using hand dexterity impairment as the dependent variable and age and PNQ, Quick DASH, and control of grip force as independent variables. RESULTS Forty-three breast cancer patients were included in the analysis. Hand dexterity impairment in taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy patients was significantly correlated with age, grip force control, and PNQ sensory scores (p < 0.008). Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that PNQ sensory scores and grip force control were significantly associated with hand dexterity impairment (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Subjective symptoms (numbness and pain) and grip force control contributed to impaired hand dexterity in taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy.

Abstract
Although the prevalence of cancer pain is 47% after treatment, cancer pain is often underestimated, and many patients are undertreated. The complexity of cancer pain contributes to the lack of its management. Recently, as the mechanism of cancer pain, it has become clear that central sensitization (CS) influences chronic pain conditions and the transition from acute to chronic pain. In this state-of-the-art review, we summarized the association of CS or central sensitivity syndrome with pain and the treatment for pain targeting CS in cancer survivors. The management of patients with CS should not only focus on tissue damage in either the affected body regions or within the central nervous system; rather, it should aim to target the underlying factors that sustain the CS process. Pain neuroscience education (PNE) is gaining popularity for managing chronic musculoskeletal pain and could be effective for pain and CS in breast cancer survivors. However, there is a study that did not demonstrate significant improvements after PNE, so further research is needed. Precision medicine involves the classification of patients into subgroups based on a multifaceted evaluation of disease and the implementation of treatment tailored to the characteristics of each patient, which may play a central role in the treatment of CS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP) is associated with upper limb dysfunction and decreased quality of life and causes long-term suffering for breast cancer survivors after surgery. However, the predictors of PPSP remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to examine predictors of PPSP intensity and interference at 1 year postoperatively, focusing on treatment-related factors, pre- and postoperative central sensitization (CS), CS-related symptoms (e.g., muscle stiffness, fatigue, sleep disturbances), and psychological factors. METHODS Eighty-eight women with planned unilateral breast cancer surgery were included in this longitudinal study. CS, CS-related symptoms, and psychological factors were assessed preoperatively, 1 month postoperatively, and 1 year postoperatively. Analysis of covariance was used to compare the groups with and without PPSP, accounting for treatment-related factors. Multiple regression analysis was performed to identify predictors of PPSP intensity and interference at 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS Even after adjusting for covariates, preoperative and 1-month postoperative Central Sensitization Inventory scores in the PPSP group were significantly higher than scores in the group without PPSP. Multiple regression analysis showed that axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and 1-month postoperative CS-related symptoms were independent predictors of PPSP intensity and interference at 1 year postoperatively (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION We found that ALND and 1-month postoperative CS-related symptoms were predictors of PPSP intensity and interference at 1 year postoperatively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Increased evidence indicates that pain location affects central sensitization (CS)-related symptoms. In addition, pain location and pain duration may be intricately related to CS-related symptoms. However, these factors have been investigated separately. This study aimed to investigate the association between CS-related symptoms and pain location and/or pain duration in patients with musculoskeletal disorders. METHODS Six hundred thirty-five participants with musculoskeletal disorders were included in this cross-sectional study. All participants were assessed for pain location, pain duration, central sensitization inventory (CSI), EuroQol-5 dimension, and brief pain inventory. The participants were categorized into 3 groups based on pain location (spinal, limb, and both spinal and limb pain) and into 2 groups based on pain duration (acute and chronic pain). RESULTS The interaction between pain location and pain duration were not significant on CSI score (P > 0.05). The odds ratio for higher CSI score (≥ 40) in patients with both spinal and limb pain vs. those with spinal or limb pain was 2.64 (P < 0.01) and that in patients with chronic pain vs. those with acute pain was 1.31 (P = 0.52). In addition, the prevalence of higher CSI scores in the combination of chronic and "both spinal and limb" pain was high (23.1%, adjusted residual = 4.48). CONCLUSIONS Pain location independently influenced CSI scores, and the combination of both spinal and limb pain and chronic pain indicated high CSI scores. The combination of pain location and pain duration is an important clue that points to CS-related symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Central sensitization (CS)-related symptoms and pain catastrophizing contribute to persistent post-mastectomy pain (PPMP). Pain neuroscience education (PNE) is effective in reducing CS-related symptoms and pain catastrophizing in patients with chronic pain. However, to date, no intervention study of PNE has been conducted to patients with PPMP. This study was aimed to examine whether PNE is more effective than biomedical education (BME) for PPMP. METHODS In this retrospective case-control study, 118 patients were included. We intervened different patients at different times as follows: (1) a BME group (n = 58) of patients who received BME combined with physiotherapy and (2) a PNE group (n = 60) of patients who received PNE combined with physiotherapy. One year after surgery, we assessed pain intensity and interference (brief pain inventory [BPI]), CS-related symptoms (central sensitization inventory [CSI]), and pain catastrophizing (pain catastrophizing scale [PCS]). Propensity score matching was used to reduce or minimize selection bias and confounding biases and to make the number of cases in both groups match 1:1. RESULTS Propensity score matching generated the BME group (n = 51) and the PNE group (n = 51). The BPI score, CSI score, and PCS score were statistically significantly lower in the PNE group than in the BME group (all, p < 0.05). The effect sizes for the BPI intensity (r = 0.31) were moderate. CONCLUSIONS PNE resulted in a better outcome of pain management with less functional disability and CS-related symptoms compared to BME after breast surgery.

Abstract
Purpose: The aims of the present study were to investigate whether the association between the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) score, pain-related symptoms, pain-related disability, and health-related quality of life differed by disease (chronic low back pain [CLBP] vs knee osteoarthritis [KOA]), and to determine optimal cutoff scores for the CSI reflecting disease-specific characteristics. Patients and methods: A total of 104 patients with CLBP and 50 patients with KOA were recruited. Central sensitization-related symptoms (CSI), EuroQol 5-dimension (EQ-5D), Brief Pain Inventory, widespread pain (Widespread Pain Index [WPI]), pressure pain threshold (PPT), and temporal summation (TS) were assessed and compared between the CLBP and KOA groups. Univariate correlation analysis was performed in each group. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to identify 1) presence/absence of central sensitization (CS), 2) presence/absence of central sensitivity syndromes (CSSs), and 3) pain intensity and pain interference in each group. Results: The CSI and WPI scores were significantly higher in the CLBP group than in the KOA group. EQ-5D and pain interference scores significantly correlated with the CSI score in both the CLBP and KOA groups. The WPI score, PPT, and TS did not correlate with the CSI score in either the CLBP or KOA group. The suggested cutoff scores were 28 in the CLBP group and 17 in the KOA group to identify presence or absence of CSSs, and 34 in the CLBP group and 18–19 in the KOA group to identify pain severity. Conclusion: The impact of CS on pain could differ between CLBP and KOA and that cutoff scores differ by each parameter we attempted to identify. Therefore, we should use the appropriate cutoff scores for the purposes and consider the difference in the impact of CS on pain by the patient group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In breast cancer survivors, multiple risk factors for health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and chronic pain, including cancer treatment-related factors, psychosocial factors, and central sensitization (CS), have been suggested; however, there has been no comparative study between breast cancer survivors with and without pain. This study aimed to compare the demographic characteristics, psychological factors, and CS-related symptoms between breast cancer survivors with pain, those without pain, and healthy controls, and to investigate the relationships of these factors with HRQoL. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 218 women, including patients who underwent breast cancer surgery and adjuvant therapy and healthy women. RESULTS Patients were divided into the pain group (n = 42), without-pain group (n = 51), and healthy group (n = 47); thus, among breast cancer survivors, 45% reported chronic pain. The proportion of participants who received breast cancer treatments, such as axillary lymph node dissection and chemotherapy, was higher in the pain group than in the without-pain group (p < 0.05). The Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) and psychosocial factors in the pain group were higher than those in the without-pain group and healthy group (p < 0.01). The CSI and PCS showed larger effect sizes than treatment-related factors. Moreover, HRQoL was significantly correlated with CSI, PCS, Patient Health Questionnaire-2, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-2 scale (all, p < 0.01). On multiple linear regression analysis, CSI accounted for 43% of the variance in HRQoL. CONCLUSIONS CS and pain catastrophizing may be more associated with the development and/or maintenance of persistent pain than treatment-related factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies suggest that life satisfaction assessment using the Life Satisfaction checklist (LiSat-11) is a meaningful outcome measure and may play an important role in setting rehabilitation goals in patients with chronic pain. Until now, there was no Japanese version of this questionnaire, and the psychometric properties of the original version of the LiSat-11 have only been investigated using classical test theory approaches. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the LiSat-11-J using Rasch analysis in a sample of Japanese people with low back pain (LBP). METHODS One hundred and two participants with LBP completed the LiSat-11-J. Concurrent Validity of the LiSat-11-J was investigated by examining the relationships between the LiSat-11-J and clinical valuable. Rasch analysis was used to assess targeting, category ordering, unidimensionality, person fit, internal consistency, and differential item functioning. RESULTS The LiSat-11-J was significantly correlated with disability, pain-related catastrophizing, fear of movement, anxiety, and depression. The LiSat-11-J targeted the participants with low life satisfaction and had unidimensionality, good internal consistency, and good test-retest reliability. Responses to category 1 ("very dissatisfying") and 2 ("dissatisfying") were disordered. After collapsing these two categories into a single new category, targeting function and category order showed a little improvement. CONCLUSION The LiSat-11-J has unidimensionality, acceptable internal consistency, good test-retest reliability, and concurrent validity to the assessment of pain-related disability and psychological factors. However, targeting function and category order were not well. These two components showed improvement by rescoring category, but not sufficient. These results suggest that the LiSat-11-J is not well adequate to apply as an assessment tool of life satisfaction to the patients with LBP.

Abstract
Background The central sensitization inventory (CSI) comprises 25 items and is commonly used to measure somatic and emotional symptoms related to central sensitization symptoms. CSI was developed as an easy-to-administer screening instrument for patients at high risk of developing central sensitization in whom it was essential to quickly evaluate the condition. The purpose of the present study was to develop a short form of CSI and evaluate its psychometric properties using a contemporary approach called Rasch analysis. Methods A total of 505 patients with musculoskeletal disorders were recruited in this study. The CSI, pain intensity, pain interference, and the health-related quality of life (QOL) were evaluated for each participant. The original CSI items were consecutively analyzed using the Rasch model. Successive Rasch analyses were performed until a final set of items satisfied the model fit requirements. We also analyzed the psychometric properties of the original and short forms of CSI. Results Four consecutive Rasch analyses identified the removable items. Finally, the shortest questionnaire obtained that maintained the correct psychometric properties based on the Rasch model contained only 9 items (CSI-9). Rasch analysis showed that the CSI-9 had acceptable internal consistency, exhibited unidimensionality, had no notable differential item functioning, and was functional on the category rating scale. Conclusions The nine-item short form of CSI has acceptable psychometric properties and is suitable for use for patients with musculoskeletal pain. Thus, the CSI-9 can be used as a brief instrument to evaluate central sensitization.

Abstract
Background Many musculoskeletal pain conditions are characterized by hypersensitivity, which is induced by central sensitization (CS). A questionnaire, the Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI), was recently developed to help clinicians identify patients whose presenting symptoms may be related to central sensitivity syndrome (CSS). The aims of the present study were to examine criterion validity and construct validity of the Japanese version of the CSI (CSI-J), and to investigate prevalence rates of CS severity levels in patients with musculoskeletal disorders. Methods Translation of the CSI into Japanese was conducted using a forward-backward method. Two hundred and ninety patients with musculoskeletal pain disorders completed the resultant CSI-J. A subset of the patients (n = 158) completed the CSI-J again one week later. The relationships between CSI and clinical symptoms, EuroQol 5-dimension (EQ-5D) and Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), were examined for criterion validity. EQ-5D assesses Health-related QOL and BPI measures pain intensity and pain interference. The psychometric properties were evaluated with analyses of construct validity, factor structure and internal consistency, and subsequently investigate the prevalence rates of CS severity levels. Results The CSI-J demonstrated high internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.89) and test-retest reliability was excellent value (ICC = 0.85). The CSI-J was significantly correlated with EQ-5D (r = −0.44), pain intensity (r = 0.42), and pain interference (r = 0.48) (p < 0.01 for all). Ten percent of the participants were above the cutoff “40”. The exploratory factor analysis resulted in 5-factor model. Conclusions This study reported that the CSI-J was a useful and psychometrically sound tool to assess CSS in Japanese patients with musculoskeletal disorders. The finding of the prevalence rates of CS severity levels in patients with musculoskeletal disorders may help clinicians to decide strategy of treatment.
