Neural activation changes in response to pain following cognitive behavioral therapy for patients with comorbid fibromyalgia and insomnia: a pilot study
JOURNAL OF CLINICAL SLEEP MEDICINE(2022)
摘要
Study Objectives: To examine whether cognitive behavioral treatments for insomnia (CBT-I) and pain (CBT-P) lead to neural activation changes in response to pain in fibromyalgia. Methods: Thirty-two patients with fibromyalgia (mean age = 55.9, standard deviation =12.2) underwent an experimental pain protocol during functional magnetic resonance imaging and completed 14-day diaries assessing total wake time, total sleep time, and pain intensity before and after CBT-I, CBT-P, or waitlist control. Random effects analysis of covariance identified regions with significant group (CBT-I, CBT-P, waitlist control) by time (baseline, post-treatment) interactions in blood oxygen level-dependent response to pain. Linear regressions using residualized change scores examined how changes in total wake time, total sleep time, and pain intensity were related to activation (blood oxygen level-dependent) changes. Results: Twelve regions exhibited small to moderate effects with significant interactions Ps < .00; right hemisphere: inferior frontal, middle occipital, and superior temporal gyri, insula, lentiform nucleus; left hemisphere: angular, superior temporal, midfrontal, inferior occipital, midtemporal, and inferior frontal gyri. Blood oxygen level-dependent response to pain decreased in 8 regions following CBT-I, and in 3 regions following CBT-P (CBT-I effects > CBT-P). Blood oxygen level-dependent response also increased in 3 regions following CBT-P and in 6 regions following waitlist control. Improved total wake time and/or total sleep time, not pain intensity, predicted decreased blood oxygen level-dependence in 7 regions (Ps < .05), accounting for 18%-47% of the variance. Conclusions: CBT-I prompted greater decreases in neural activation in response to pain across more regions associated with pain and sleep processing than CBT-P. Reported sleep improvements may underlie those decreases. Future research examining the longer-term impact of CBT-I and improved sleep on central pain and sleep mechanisms is warranted.
