Racine M, Solé E, Sánchez-Rodríguez E, et al. - Researchers examined differences in pretreatment pain intensity, physical function, psychological function, pain beliefs, kinesiophobia, pain catastrophizing, and activity management patterns by gender in a sample of patients (72 men and 130 women) participating in a 4-week interdisciplinary pain treatment program. Further, they examined differences in treatment response by gender in this sample of patients. As per outcomes, there was a comparable profile with respect to the overall burden of chronic pain among men and women. Before treatment, men vs women reported higher levels of kinesiophobia, were more likely to view their pain as being harmful, and used more activity pacing when doing daily activities. Relative to men, women were more likely to use an overdoing activity pattern than men. The interdisciplinary pain management program seemed to confer more benefit to women than men.
