Pain in ambulatory AIDS patients. I: Pain characteristics and medical correlates
Abstract
The characteristics and impact of pain were evaluated in a prospective cross-sectional survey of 438 ambulatory AIDS patients recruited from health care facilities in New York City. More than 60% of the patients reported 'frequent or persistent pain' during the 2 wks preceding the study. Patients with pain reported an average of 2.5 different pains. On the 0-10 numerical scale of the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), mean pain intensity 'on average' was 5.4 (SD = 2.2; range = 0-10), and mean pain 'at its worst' was 7.4 (SD = 2.0; range = 1-10). The pain-related functional interference index (sum of the seven item BPI subscale) was 42.6 (SD = 17.2; range = 0.70). Demographic variables were not associated with the presence of pain, but the number of current HIV-related symptoms, treatment for HIV-related infections, and the absence of antiretroviral medications were significantly associated with the presence of pain. Female gender, non-Caucasian race, and number of HIV-related physical symptoms were significantly associated with pain intensity. Presence of pain and increasing pain intensity were significantly associated with greater impairment in functional ability (Karnofsky Performance Status, BPI functional interference index) and physical symptom distress (Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale). Results demonstrate high levels of pain and pain-related functional impairment among patients with AIDS. The presence and intensity of pain are associated with more advanced HIV disease and pain intensity is also associated with demographic factors (gender, race).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
