Personality Traits and Subjective Health Complaints in Female TMD Patients and Healthy Controls
Open accessAbstract
Background: Personality traits and general health complaints may influence the course of and treatment of chronic pain. However, only few studies compare more than one or two personality characteristics in chronic pain patients and healthy controls. This study compares the comprehensive non-pathological personality structure of female patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and pain-free controls. Moreover, this study controls for the influence of Neuroticism, self-presentation bias, and acute pain sensitivity on the subjective report of general health complaints. Methods: Twenty-five TMD patients were compared to 25 matched controls on personality traits (NEO Personality Inventory- Revised; NEO-PI-R), self-presentation bias (Social Desirability Scale; SDS), psychological distress (Symptom Checklist 90-Revised; SCL-90-R), and general somatic complaints. Experimental pain sensitivity was assessed by electrocutaneous and pressure pain stimulation.Results: Compared to the controls, Extraversion and Openness were lower in the TMD group, and the TMD patients exhibited higher levels of psychological and musculoskeletal complaints also when Neuroticism, self-presentation bias, and acute pain sensitivity were held constant.Conclusions: Low levels of Extraversion and Openness may dispose TMD patients to isolation and negative thought patterns.The elevated levels of psychological distress and general musculoskeletal pain in the TMD group add to previous reports of TMD as a complex condition also involving structures and processes outside of the orofacial region.

Most of the work is in populations suffering from long-term chronic pain such as fibromyalgia or non-specific LBP.
“Most of the work is in populations suffering from long-term chronic pain such as fibromyalgia or non-specific LBP (Conversano et al., 2018;Mohn et al., 2010;Ramírez-Maestre et al., 2004).”

The Introduction identifies this as a study of TMD patients, and the Discussion describes TMD as a chronic pain condition, so the paper is an example of work in a chronic-pain population. It does not establish that most work is in such populations, and its study population had TMD rather than fibromyalgia or non-specific low back pain. The indexed passages provide no page numbers.

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.
