Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) often report chronic pain, which is one of the most complex non-motor symptoms. Therefore, this study aims to review the literature on the characteristics of pain in patients with PD. ⋯ Heterogeneity in data across included studies was observed, highlighting the need for additional research to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of pain in patients with PD and develop effective therapeutic strategies to address this symptom and improve the quality of life for individuals living with the disease.

Review Meta Analysis
Effectiveness of motor imagery in complex regional pain syndrome: A systematic review with meta-analysis.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of motor imagery (MI) on pain intensity and disability in individuals with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). ⋯ Moderate-quality evidence suggests a positive effect of MI for improving pain intensity and disability immediately after and at short-term in individuals with CRPS.

Review Case Reports Meta Analysis Controlled Clinical Trial
Peripheral magnetic stimulation for chronic peripheral neuropathic pain: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
To provide a systematic review of the literature on the effects of peripheral magnetic stimulation (PMS) in the treatment of chronic peripheral neuropathic pain. ⋯ There is limited and low-quality evidence to make definitive recommendations on PMS usage, however, the available data is encouraging, especially for short-term applications of this novel modality. Large high-quality randomized controlled trials are required to establish definitive efficacy and safety effects of PMS.
