Associations of preterm birth and neonatal stress exposure with chronic pain in adulthood – Results from the Gutenberg prematurity study

Although the effect of early childhood stress on central nervous pain processing is well known, studies on the association of prematurity and chronic pain are scarce.

description Although the effect of early childhood stress on central nervous pain processing is well known, studies on the association of prematurity and chronic pain are scarce. This study used data from a single-centre retrospective cohort study followed by a prospective clinical examination and pain assessment. The study was based on data from the local birth registry. Newborns born between 1969 and 2002 who had reached adulthood were eligible .. Using a selection algorithm, a study cohort stratified by gestational age (GA) was recruited. Chronic pain conditions were assessed using questionnaire and standardized pain drawings. Data on the pre-, peri- and postnatal clinical course was assessed from medical records. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to investigate associations between prematurity and chronic pain with adjustment for age, gender, socioeconomic status, and perinatal stress factors. 427 participants born preterm and full-term were included (age 28.5 ± 8.7 years). Chronic pain conditions were similarly common between groups with different levels of prematurity (GA ≥ 37 weeks: 34.5 %, GA33-36 weeks: 37.6 %, GA32-29 weeks: 25.2 %, GA
