Prescription opioid and benzodiazepine use after road traffic injury
ConclusionsPrescription opioid and benzodiazepine before road traffic injury was substantial: the significance of postinjury prescription drug use cannot be established without taking preinjury use into account. It may be beneficial for pain medication to be managed by a pain treatment coordinator, in this injured population with high rates of pre‐existing opioid and benzodiazepine use.

Familial Contributions to Self‐Reported Sleep and Pain in Female Twins
ConclusionsThese findings support an association between poor sleep quality and pain and suggest that this relationship may be confounded by shared genetic and environmental factors, which could elucidate biological mechanisms that underlie the development and maintenance of pain and sleep problems.

CPM Test–Retest Reliability: “Standard” vs “Single Test‐Stimulus” Protocols
ConclusionsThe newly developed STS‐CPM paradigm was more reliable than other CPM protocols tested here, and should be further investigated for its clinical relevance. It appears that large contact size of the conditioning‐stimulus and use of single rather than dual test‐stimulus pain contribute to augmentation of CPM reliability. (Source: Pain Medicine)

A Brief Mindfulness Meditation Training Increases Pain Threshold and Accelerates Modulation of Response to Tonic Pain in an Experimental Study
ConclusionsA brief MM intervention appears to affect perception of experimental pain both by increasing pain threshold and accelerating modulation of response. Findings may help elucidate mechanisms of MM for chronic pain. (Source: Pain Medicine)
