The purpose of the study was to investigate the relationship between personality and ischaemic rest pain. Twenty-four patients wth peripheral vascular disease unsuitable for surgery and suffering from ischaemic rest pain were treated equally with 14 days of bed rest and intravenous naftidrofuryl and their pain analogue scores and personality structures were analysed. There was a general trend of improvement in their analogue pain scores and patients with high neuroticism (N) and extroversion (E) levels had a better response to treatment, but which only became significant on one occasion when both N and E levels were high. Levels of N and E were compared with those of the normal population both before and after treatment and were found to be similar even after amputation.
该研究的目的是调查人格与缺血性静息痛之间的关系。24名患有外周血管疾病、不适于手术且患有缺血性静息痛的患者接受了为期14天的卧床休息和静脉注射奈呋胺酯治疗，治疗方式相同，并对他们的疼痛模拟评分和人格结构进行了分析。他们的模拟疼痛评分总体上有改善趋势，高神经质（N）和外向性（E）水平的患者对治疗反应更好，但只有一次当N和E水平都高时才变得显著。治疗前后将N和E水平与正常人群进行比较，发现即使在截肢后也相似。
