The Role of Sleep Impairment in Associations Between Pain and Nicotine/Tobacco Dependence in Wave 6 of the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (Path) Study
Objective Tobacco use is a significant national health concern that frequently co-occurs with chronic pain. Both pain and use of nicotine/tobacco have been linked to greater sleep impairments (i.e., trouble initiating and maintaining sleep), and there is reason to believe that more severe pain may indirectly contribute to greater nicotine dependence via sleep impairments. Therefore, the goal of this study was to examine indirect associations betw…
Graded Associations of Tranquilizer Use and Misuse with Suicidal Thoughts and Behaviors in a National Sample of U.S. Veterans
U.S. military veterans face an elevated suicide risk compared to the general population. Both the use and misuse of tranquilizers (i.e. several classes of medications that treat anxiety and muscle spasms via central nervous system action, including benzodiazepines) have been associated with suicidal thoughts and behaviors among veterans. However, it remains unclear whether risk varies across different patterns of tranquilizer use. Participants in…
High levels of patient self advocacy may confound clinical research in understudied patient populations
To examine the levels of patient self-advocacy in a sample of participants with Chiari Malformation (CM) and to explore how they relate to clinical outcomes. As part of a larger clinical trial addressing chronic pain in patients with CM, 111 participants completed the Patient Self Advocacy Scale (PSAS), the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21), and the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). PSAS scores indicated a moderately high level of patient…
Limited effects of phone coaching in an RCT of online self-guided acceptance and commitment therapy for chronic pain
Over 80% of patients with Chiari Malformation (CM) struggle with moderate to severe disability due to neck pain and headaches. Self-guided online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is efficacious in addressing chronic pain. However, it is unclear whether adjunctive weekly phone coaching (a cost- and labor-intensive component of the intervention) contributes to, or provides additional benefit to, ACT's success. This study randomized 112 parti…
