“…Along these lines, there is emerging evidence that increasing food intake can reduce psychological distress and alleviate acute pain (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20). Although binge eating may provide acute pain and distress relief in morbidly obese OA patients, increased eating can promote a vicious cycle that results in increased weight, increased pain, increased eating, and so on.…”

“…Converging lines of research indicate that, in morbidly obese patients, eating may serve to temporarily alleviate physical (eg, pain) and psychological discomfort. Ingesting high-fat meals and high levels of sucrose has been shown to increase pain tolerance (11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19), while estimates suggest that up to one-third of individuals increase their food intake during times of stress (12,20). Morbidly obese OA patients who engage in pain catastrophizing may be at a particular risk for overeating.…”

OBJECTIVE: There is limited information about how morbidly obese osteoarthritis (OA) patients cope with the pain they experience. Pain catastrophizing is an important predictor of pain and adjustment in persons with persistent pain. This may be particularly relevant in the morbidly obese (body mass index [BMI] of 40 kg/m 2 or greater) OA population at risk for increased pain. The present study first examined whether borderline morbidly obese and morbidly obese OA patients report higher levels of pain catastrophizing than a sample of OA patients in the overweight and obese category (BMI between 25 kg/m 2 and 34 kg/m 2 ). Next, it examined how pain catastrophizing is related to important indexes of pain and adjustment in borderline morbidly obese and morbidly obese OA patients. METHODS: Participants included 43 individuals with knee OA who were borderline morbidly obese or morbidly obese (BMI of 38 kg/m 2 or greater). Participants completed self-report measures of pain catastrophizing, pain, psychological distress, quality of life, binge eating and eating self-efficacy. RESULTS: The sample of borderline morbidly obese and morbidly obese OA patients reported significantly higher levels of pain catastrophizing (P=0.007) than a comparison sample of overweight and obese OA patients. Results suggested that patients who engaged in a high level of pain catastrophizing reported having much more intense and unpleasant pain, higher levels of binge eating, lower self-efficacy for controlling their eating and lower weight-related quality of life (P<0.05 for all). CONCLUSIONS: Pain catastrophizing is related to pain and adjustment in borderline morbidly obese and morbidly obese OA patients. Clinicians working with this population should consider assessing pain catastrophizing in the patients they treat.Key Words: Morbidly obese; Osteoarthritis; Pain catastrophizing La dramatisation de la douleur chez les personnes à la limite de l'obésité morbide ou présen-tant une morbidité morbide et souffrant de douleurs causées par l'arthrose du genou OBJECTIF : On possède peu d'information sur la manière dont les obèses morbides atteints d'arthrose affrontent les douleurs dont ils souffrent. La dramatisation de la douleur est un important prédicteur de la douleur et de l'adaptation chez les personnes souffrant de douleurs persistantes. Ce peut être particulièrement pertinent chez les patients atteints d'arthrose présentant une obésité morbide (indice de masse corporelle [IMC] d'au moins 40 kg/m 2 ) vulnérables à une douleur plus marquée. Dans la présente étude, les auteurs ont d'abord évalué si les patients atteints d'arthrose à la limite de l'obésité morbide ou présentant une obésité morbide déclaraient un plus fort taux de dramatisation de la douleur qu'un échantillon de patients atteints d'arthrose obèses ou faisant de l'embonpoint (IMC de 25 kg/m 2 à 34 kg/m 2 ). Ils ont ensuite examiné dans quelle mesure la dramatisation de la douleur est reliée aux importants indices de la douleur et de l'adaptation chez les patients atteints d'ar...

“…Several studies have found a social gradient in both work stress and metabolic syndrome (41)(42)(43), suggesting that the social gradient in metabolic syndrome and heart disease may be partly explainable by greater exposure to work stress Table 1 Means, standard deviations, Cronbach's Alpha and interscale correlations (n = 79) among less advantaged social groups. Metabolic syndrome and obesity have also been linked to several other psychological factors: body dissatisfaction, self-esteem, depression (44)(45)(46), stress (47)(48)(49), and positive and negative affect (50)(51). In line with previous reports, our study revealed that, in comparison with controls, overweight participants had significantly higher values of depression (6.75 ± 2.87 vs. 4.93 ± 3.32, P < 0.05) and anxiety (7.33 ± 2.68 vs. 6.03 ± 2.92, P < 0.05), and lower levels of optimism (15.13 ± 3.69 vs. 17.85 ± 3.95, P < 0.01) and satisfaction with life (21.49 ± 5.77 vs. 24.70 ± 6.80, P < 0.05).…”

The present case-control study of 79 subjects (19-69 yr) was designed to assess the relationship of several psychological determinants to periodontal disease and obesity. Periodontal clinical examinations were performed, and the subjects were asked to complete a set of questionnaires measuring Type A personality, anxiety, depression, dental anxiety, hopelessness, emotional intelligence, stress, self-esteem, optimism and satisfaction with life. In a bivariate analysis, overweight individuals presented higher levels of smoking exposure, anxiety and depression and lower levels of optimism and satisfaction with life. They were mainly females, with a higher number of sites and teeth with probing depth (PD) >6 mm and clinical attachment level (CAL) >5 mm. Patients with a mean PD exceeding 3 mm and a bleeding on probing index of >25% presented higher values of dental anxiety and lower levels of self-esteem. Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that dental anxiety was positively associated with the number of teeth with a PD of >6 mm and with reasons for visiting a dentist, while satisfaction with life was associated with flossing frequency. We conclude that there is an association between several psychological determinants, periodontitis, and body mass index. (J Oral Sci 52, 115-124, 2010)

“…Nesse estudo, os autores ressaltam que, se indivíduos pertencentes a uma rede social são capazes de influenciar o aumento de peso de seus contatos, é possível utilizar a rede social de modo positivo, fazendo com que os indivíduos perpassem comportamentos positivos à saúde. Por outro lado, as pessoas mudam seus hábitos alimentares sob estresse, com maior consumo de alimentos ricos em gordura e açúcar, como uma forma de enfrentamento de condições de vida estressantes 16 . Nessa situação, a existência de um apoio social adequado encorajaria um estilo de vida saudável, promovendo um comportamento adaptativo ou respostas neuroendócrinas para estressores agudos ou crônicos 11 .…”
