Pain severity, pain interference, and symptoms of depression as a function of fibromyalgia and smoking status

FM+ Current Smoker (n = 213) FM+ Nonsmoker (n = 338) FM– Current Smoker (n = 251) FM– Nonsmoker (n = 764)
Pain severity (range = 0–10) 7.44 ± 1.32 6.80 ± 1.62* 6.65 ± 1.76* 5.77 ± 1.92*
Pain interference (range = 0–10) 8.32 ± 1.38 7.66 ± 1.84* 6.95 ± 2.01* 6.04 ± 2.32*
Depression (% scoring 11 or above) 69.19% 52.10%* 35.10%* 22.19%*

Note: Values are the unadjusted means, SD unless otherwise indicated. FM+ = meets ACR survey criteria for fibromyalgia; FM– = does not meet ACR survey criteria for fibromyalgia. Pain severity and pain interference were measured using the BPI. Symptoms of depression were assessed using the HADS. A score of 11 or higher on the HADS indicates a high probability that depression is present. Ns may vary due to missing data on the criterion variables.

*

indicates that the means or percentages were statistically significantly different from the FM+ smoker reference group at Bonferroni-adjusted P < 0.05 or less.
