简要总结
Self-medication of pain with alcohol is a common, yet risky, behavior among individuals with chronic orofacial pain. Chronic pain status may affect the degree to which alcohol use relieves pain, but the independent contributions of pain chronification and alcohol-related expectations and conditioning have not been previously studied. This project addresses this gap in knowledge and will inform further research and clinical/translational efforts for reducing risk associated with these behaviors.

结局指标
主要结局
Pressure Pain Intensity
时间窗: Day 1; Day 2 (Laboratory sessions will be separated by at least 48 hours.)
Pain ratings associated with 4, 5, or 6 pound-feet (lbf) of pressure applied to the insertion of the masseter. VAS (visual analogue scale) pain intensity ratings anchored from 0 ("no pain at all") to 100 ("most intense imaginable") were collected. Higher values represent higher pain intensity.
Pressure Pain Threshold
时间窗: Day 1; Day 2 (Laboratory sessions will be separated by at least 48 hours.)
Pressure at which stimulation at the masseter insertion becomes painful, in lbf. Positive values represent higher pain thresholds.
Perceived Relief
时间窗: Day 1; Day 2 (Laboratory sessions will be separated by at least 48 hours.)
Ratings of relief from pain associated with consumption of the study beverage following application of 4, 5, or 6 lbf stimuli. VAS (visual analogue scale) assessing perceived relief anchored from 0 ("No relief at all") to 100 ("Most profound relief imaginable"). Higher values represent greater perceived relief.
