Description
A prospective cohort study of 50 young women with upper trapezius myofascial pain syndrome, comparing interfascial plane injection (IPI) and trigger point injection (TPI). The dataset includes pain intensity, functional disability, muscle stiffness, adverse events, and patient satisfaction scores collected over a 12-week follow-up period. It was authored by Ren Jiang and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.
Use Cases
Compare clinical efficacy between two injection techniques based on pain intensity (NRS) scores.
Analyze patient-reported outcomes based on Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) data.
Evaluate treatment safety profiles based on adverse event incidence rates.
Assess patient satisfaction and procedural comfort levels between treatment groups.
Investigate the correlation between objective muscle stiffness (via shear-wave elastography) and subjective pain reports.
Strengths
Includes data from a prospective cohort study with 50 participants.
Features multiple validated clinical outcome measures (NRS, SF-MPQ, NDI).
Contains objective biomechanical data from shear-wave elastography.
Reports specific adverse event rates (1.3% vs. 10.7%) and statistical significance (p=0.034).
Limitations
Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
The dataset is small in scale (31.0 KB), indicating limited scope.
