Is nociplastic pain, a new pain category, associated with biochemical, hematological, and inflammatory parameters?

CONCLUSION: In our study, it was observed that levels of vitamin D in individuals with nociplastic pain were low, while erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, and Neutrophil/Lymphocyte ratio were high, and hemoglobin and ferritin levels were elevated. Furthermore, these findings were found to be associated with both the presence of pain and the severity of pain assessed using the visual analog scale.PMID:38204412 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2024.2304106
