Objective The aim of this study was to assess the correlation of inflammatory and pain genes
polymorphisms with the presence of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) patients and with …

Introduction Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels are significantly upregulated in the
synovial fluid of patients with temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD). The TNF-α influences …

Background Previous evidence indicates significant association between genetic
polymorphisms and phenotypes related to pain sensitivity in patients with …

For reasons unknown, temporomandibular disorder (TMD) can manifest as localized pain or
in conjunction with widespread pain. We evaluated relationships between cytokines and …

Genetic risk factors are believed to combine with environmental exposures and contribute to
the risk of developing temporomandibular disorder (TMD). In this prospective cohort study …

Background Pain related to temporomandibular disorders (TMD) can be linked with multiple
site pain (MSP), and may associate with increased pain sensitivity, more frequently among …

Objectives To investigate frequency of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in pain‐
related temporomandibular disorders (TMDp) and to determine whether specific SNPs …

Abstract Background Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may influence pain
susceptibility and impact treatment response in pain‐related temporomandibular disorders …

Genetic factors play a role in the etiology of persistent pain conditions, putatively by
modulating underlying processes such as nociceptive sensitivity, psychological well-being …

AIMS:(1) To examine the heritability of TMD pain and of neck pain; and (2) to estimate the
potential overlap in genetic and environmental factors influencing TMD pain and neck pain …
