Prevalence and Association of Neuropathic Pain and Central Sensitization in Participants with Knee Osteoarthritis: Establishing a Cutoff Score for the Central Sensitization Inventory

A cutoff score of ≥26 for CSI demonstrated a high sensitivity in predicting NP in people with knee OA, suggesting its utility as an effective screening tool for guiding an appropriate intervention and measuring response to treatment in this population.
