: Pain in dance may be related to the high specific load on the musculoskeletal system caused by dance techniques. Up to the present, data on pain-relevant aspects considering the dance style as a contributing factor to pain occurrence in dance are still pending. The aim of this study was to analyze and compare dance-style specific pain with regard to prevalence, localization, subjective pain perception, duration, frequency, temporary dynamics and pain evaluation in dancers of the two popular dance styles (ballet and contemporary dance).: The quantitative cross-sectional observation study with descriptive focus was carried out in n = 64 classical (ballet) dancers (B) and n = 81 jazz/modern/contemporary dancers (JMC). All participants were non-professional dancers. The data were collected by using an online questionnaire consisting of existing pain assessments adapted for dance.: Above all, differences were found in the comparison of the dancers' body regions. While the lower extremity was particularly affected in ballet dancers (B) (right calf, p = 0.04; forefoot and toes, p < 0.01), dancers of the JMC were more frequently affected by pain in the head and trunk (neck, p < 0.01; upper back, p < 0.01) and the upper extremity (shoulders, p < 0.01; wrists, p < 0.01; left elbow, p = 0.03). More than 65% of the dancers (B and JMC) reported pain in the context of dancing within the recent 3 and 12 months. Further parallels in the two dance styles could be observed in the subjective sensation of pain, the temporal course and the evaluation of pain.: In the overall view of pain aspects, the parallels between the investigated dance styles prevail, which dominate in the aspects of pain prevalence, subjective perception, temporal progression, and pain evaluation. This allows the careful conclusion that the dance style performed is of limited importance for the pain aspects mentioned. The differences must be taken into account in future prevention measures.
舞蹈相关疼痛可能与舞蹈技术导致的肌肉骨骼系统高特异性负荷有关。到目前为止，关于舞蹈风格作为舞蹈疼痛发生的一个促成因素的相关疼痛方面的数据仍有待研究。本研究旨在分析和比较特定舞蹈风格的疼痛，包括流行的两种舞蹈风格（芭蕾舞和现代舞）的疼痛发生率、定位、主观疼痛感知、持续时间、频率、暂时动态和疼痛评估。
这是一项具有描述性重点的定量横断面观察研究，纳入了 n = 64 名古典（芭蕾舞）舞者（B）和 n = 81 名爵士/现代/当代舞者（JMC）。所有参与者均为非专业舞者。通过使用包含现有舞蹈评估改编的在线问卷收集数据。
在舞者身体部位的比较中发现了差异。芭蕾舞舞者（B）的下肢受影响尤其明显（右小腿，p = 0.04；前足和脚趾，p < 0.01），而 JMC 舞者更多地受到头部和躯干（颈部，p < 0.01；上背部，p < 0.01）以及上肢（肩部，p < 0.01；手腕，p < 0.01；左肘，p = 0.03）疼痛的影响。超过 65%的舞者（B 和 JMC）报告在最近 3 个月和 12 个月内跳舞时出现疼痛。在两种舞蹈风格中还可以观察到疼痛的主观感觉、时间进程和疼痛评估方面的相似之处。
在疼痛方面的总体观点中，调查舞蹈风格之间存在更多的相似之处，这些相似之处在疼痛发生率、主观感知、时间进程和疼痛评估方面占主导地位。这使得我们可以谨慎地得出结论，所进行的舞蹈风格对所提到的疼痛方面的影响有限。在未来的预防措施中，必须考虑到这些差异。
