Atypical Orofacial Pain Diagnostics and Differentiation.

Visual analog scale

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Patients evaluate their spontaneous episodic pain before assessing self-evaluating questionnaires. Patient pain will be assessed using a visual analogue scale of 0-10, zero being no pain, ten being an unbearable/unimaginable pain. The higher score may lead to a possibilty of developing mood disorders.

Hospital anxiety and depression scale

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

The Hospital anxiety and depression scale is a fourteen-item scale. Seven of the items relate to anxiety and seven relate to depression. The anxiety and depression subscales each range from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating higher anxiety/depression complains. Patients were defined as having anxiety or depression or both if the score was 8 or more in the corresponding subscale.

Pittsburgh sleep quality index

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index contains 19 self-rated questions which measures seven aspects of sleep: (1) subjective sleep quality, (2) sleep latency, (3) sleep duration, (4) habitual sleep efficiency, (5) sleep disturbances, (6) use of sleeping medication, and (7) daytime dysfunction. The 19 self-rated items are combined to form seven component scores, each of which has a range of 0-3 points (0 indicates no difficulty, while 3 indicates severe difficulty). The seven component scores are then summed to yield one global score, with a range of 0-21 points (0 indicating no difficulty, and 21 indicating severe difficulties in all the seven areas of sleep quality).

Big Five personality traits

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Big five personality traits questionnaire is a 25-item questionnaire compiled from Goldberg et al. 1999. Respondent chooses between a pair of adjectives and chooses an according score from one to seven. All personality dimensions are evaluated separately from specific pairs of adjectives and sum of these pairs scores. Lithuanian version is adapted from A.Bunevičius (2006).

Galvanic skin response. Valence

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Galvanic skin response peaks (countable) either total or within positive, negative and neutral condition valence.

Galvanic skin response. Amplitude

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Galvanic skin response is measured in microsiemens. Sudden rise in skin conductivity is called a peak. Peak amplitudes (in microsiemens) will be recorded and analysed. Average amplitude of peaks, either total or within positive, negative and neutral valence.

Galvanic skin response. Peaks/minute

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Peaks/minute (normalized measure) either total or within positive, negative and neutral valence.

Facial expression analysis. Duration of positive valence.

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Facial expression analysis determines the respondents' valence (negative, positive or neutral). The duration of positive valence (more than 30 percent threshold) will be assessed seconds.

Facial expression analysis. Duration of negative valence.

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Facial expression analysis determines the respondents' valence (negative, positive or neutral), the duration of negative valence (less than 30 percent threshold) will be assessed in seconds.

Facial expression analysis. Duration of neutral valence.

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Facial expression analysis determines the respondents' valence (negative, positive or neutral). The duration of neutral valence (from -30 percent to 30 percent threshold) will be assessed in seconds.

Facial expression analysis. Total duration.

时间窗: Assessment score gathered once (Day 1)

Facial expression analysis determines the respondents' valence (negative, positive or neutral). A total duration of the record (measuring time in seconds) will be used.
