“…They concluded that body awareness and body sensitivity decreased in patients with chronic pain. Erden and colleagues [58] investigated the relationship between body awareness, quality of life, and pain and found that body awareness had a positive effect on quality of life and a negative relationship with pain. This article is the second to explore the link between PD and body awareness.…”

Background and Objective: Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is one of the most common clinical disorders in women of reproductive age. Our aim was to examine whether a twice-weekly thirty-minute Aviva exercise intervention could result in improvements in pain level and body awareness in patients with PD. Materials and Methods: In our prospective observational trial, the observation period included two consecutive menstrual cycles and the period of the next menstrual bleeding. The first menstrual bleeding period was the first measurement time (T1), the second was the second measurement time (T2), and the third was the third measurement time (T3) in a total of 78 volunteers. The primary endpoint was the change in the level of menstrual pain according to the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) questionnaire between the intervention group (IG) and the control group (CG) at T1, T2, and T3. In this study, the secondary outcomes were the differences between the IG and CG regarding the different subscales of the Hungarian version of the Body Awareness Questionnaire (BAQ-H) at T1, T2, and T3; the Borg scale results of the IG; and adherence to the intervention. Statistical tests such as independent-sample t-tests, chi-square tests, Pearson’s linear correlation coefficient, and repeated-measure ANCOVA were used for the analyses. Results: In total, 78 volunteers were enrolled: 40 persons in the IG and 38 in the CG. There was a significant change in the level of menstruation pain according to the NRS questionnaire between the IG and CG (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference between the IG and CG regarding the different subscales of the BAQ-H. Only in the case of the “Note responses or changes in body process” subscale of the BAQ-H was there a trend-like effect from the Aviva exercises (p = 0.086). Conclusions: The Aviva exercise could contribute to pain relief from PD. Regarding body awareness, no significant difference was found between the two groups. Due to the short detection period and prospective observational design, our results are preliminary and need to be confirmed in larger clinical trials.

“…A study involving healthy individuals reported an inverse association between body awareness and pain intensity and emotional state. 14 In older adults, chronic musculoskeletal pain and cognitive impairment are reduced body awareness. 8 Hider et al 25 reported that body totality was associated with disease acceptance in patients with ankylosing spondylitis and that body image, including body totality and body selfconsciousness, was inversely related to depression.…”

“…12 Many cortical areas are interconnected to help the perception of body position, the relationship between body segments and the body itself, and body awareness, which is the ability to recognize one's own body, is formed. 13 Previous studies have suggested a negative relationship between body awareness, pain and emotional mood in healthy individuals 14 and that cognitive impairment and chronic musculoskeletal pain reduce body awareness in older adults. 8 Shifting the focus of attention from pain sensations to different mental tasks may be beneficial in reducing pain, indeed, previous studies on experimental pain or other models of acute pain show such benefits.…”

Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of disease activity on body awareness and central sensitization in patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Methods: This cross-sectional study included patients diagnosed with axSpA. Disease activity was evaluated using the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), and a score of four or higher was considered high disease activity. Patients were divided into two groups according to BASDAI: high disease activity (BASDAI ≥ 4) group (HG) and the low disease activity (BASDAI0.05). The CSI-A score was higher in HG compared to LG (44 (31-54) vs. 31 (21-41), p=0.008). The HG had poorer BAQ scores than the LG (61 (52-85) vs. 85 (64-96), p=0.017). BASDAI was moderately associated with CSI-A (r=0.145, R2=0.172, p=0.001). No significant correlation was found between BASDAI and BAQ (p=0.167). The results of the simple linear regression analysis suggested that CSI-A explained 17.2% of the disease activity. BASDAI (β = 0.415, p=0.001) significantly predicted central sensitization. BASDAI was strongly correlated with VAS (r=0.665, R2= 0.442, p

Background This study aimed to examine the association of physical activity level with body awareness and balance in individuals with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). In addition, the effects of disease-specific parameters on static and dynamic balance functions were investigated. Material and Methods Sixty-four volunteers (36 female, 28 male) were included. AS disease activity, functional level, and spinal mobility were evaluated with disease-specific indexes. Physical activity level was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, body awareness with the Body Awareness Questionnaire, static balance with the Single Leg Stance Test, and dynamic balance with the Timed Up and Go Test and the Four Square Step Test. Results There was a relationship between physical activity level and body awareness (p<0.05), but no correlation was found with the disease-specific assessments and balance measurements (p>0.05). While BASFI was found to be significantly associated with both static and dynamic balance, it was noted that BASMI was just related with FSST (p<0.05), and BASDAI was not correlated with any balance test (p>0.05). Conclusion As a result of our study, we observed that physical activity level was associated with body awareness, but not with balance. Also, it was recorded that the functional status of individuals with AS is closely related with static and dynamic balance and dynamic balance is partially influenced by spinal mobility.
