The Relationship Between Pain, Function, Behavioral, and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia and Quality of Life
2022, Pain Management NursingCitation Excerpt :In this sample those who were older, male, had fewer comorbidities and were black were more likely to demonstrate symptoms indicative of pain. Although findings are inconsistent (Brennan et al., 2019; Ulbricht et al., 2019) there have been prior studies with older adults indicating that those who are black tend to have more pain than their white counterparts (Brennan, 2020; Green & Hart-Johnson, 2010; Wandner et al., 2013). Likewise prior studies have reported that males tend to have higher pain levels across all levels of cognitive status (Cowan et. al., 2017; Romano et. al., 2019; Wadner et al., 2013).
Headache in African Americans: An overlooked disparity
2015, Journal of the National Medical AssociationEthnicity interacts with the OPRM1 gene in experimental pain sensitivity
2012, PainCitation Excerpt :These previous studies of OPRM1 have included little ethnic diversity, despite solid evidence of vast differences in clinical presentation and experience of pain and analgesia across ethnic groups [1,8,14,21,38,39]. Indeed, relative to non-Hispanic whites, African Americans report higher levels of pain and disability associated with several pain conditions [1,3,21–25,64,65,78], including postoperative pain [26,40,50]. In addition, multiple studies have demonstrated greater experimental pain sensitivity among African Americans [6,7,17,27,56–58,66].
Reducing racial disparities in pain treatment: The role of empathy and perspective-taking
2011, PainCitation Excerpt :Together, this evidence provides strong, but not absolute, support for this empathy hypothesis. Recent studies indicate that racial disparities in pain treatment continue to affect the lives of African Americans [20,30]. This problem has not gone away.
