Other | Change in the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Short Form Pain Interference questionnaire scores | The PROMIS Short Form Pain Interference questionnaire will be given too those who report chronic pain. The PROMIS short form is a 6-point Likert-type scale, with scores ranging from 1 (had no pain) to 6 (always) over a 7-day recall period. Higher scores suggest more pain interference | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |
Other | Change in Heart Rate Variability (HRV) | Measures of heart rate variability in frequency domain will be derived and measures integrated over specified frequency ranges. | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |
Other | Change in Heart Rate (HR) | Continuous heart rate will be recorded while participant is breathing normally in seated position for 10 minutes using Faros 180 heart rate monitor (Bittium Corporation, Oulu, Finland). Beat to beat intervals (RRI) files will be generated at 1000 Hz via the data acquisition software. Files will be analyzed with Nevrokard HRV software (by Nevrokard Kiauta, d.o.o., Izola, Slovenia). Recordings will be visually inspected to ensure data quality (dropped beats or gross motion artifacts are excluded) and first 5 minutes of usable tracings will be analyzed. | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |
Other | Change in Baroreflex Sensitivity (BRS) | BRS calculated by this method is based on quantification of sequences of at least three beats (n) in which SBP consecutively increases (UP sequence) or decreases (DOWN sequence), which are accompanied by changes in the same direction of the RRI of subsequent beats (n+1). The software scans the RRI and SBP records, identifies sequences, and calculates linear correlation between RRI and SBP for each sequence. The mean of all individual regression coefficients (slopes), a measure of sequence BRS, is calculated for Sequence UP, DOWN and ALL (ms/mmHg). Blood pressure and heart rate are acquired from 10 minute recordings of noninvasive finger arterial pressure measurements and ECG with participants lying quietly, supine. Systolic BP and beat to beat, RR intervals files generated via the data acquisition system (BIOPAC acquisition system and Acknowledge 4.2 software, Santa Barbara, CA), at 1000 Hz, are analyzed using Nevrokard BRS software (Nevrokard BRS, Medistar, Ljubljana, Slovenia). | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |

Primary | Change in Patient Assessment of Gastrointestinal Disorders Symptom Severity Index (PAGY-SYM) scores | The Patient Assessment of Gastrointestinal Disorders Symptom Severity Index (PAGI-SYM) is 20 items. This inventory includes six subscales of related GI distress including heartburn/regurgitation, fullness/early satiety, nausea/vomiting, bloating, upper abdominal pain, and lower abdominal pain. Individual item scores range from 0 (none) to 5 (very severe). The higher the score, the more severe the GI symptoms. | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |
Secondary | Change in Nausea Profile (NP) scores | The Nausea Profile evaluates the experience of 3 dimensions which are involved in the complex feeling of nausea; somatic distress, Gastrointestinal (GI) distress, and emotional distress. The degree to which the patient felt/feels each of the following descriptors during the nauseous period is rated by the patient on a scale of 0 (not at all) to 9 (severely). Higher scores suggest more nausea. | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |
Secondary | Change in Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) scores | The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) is a depression scale, which will help to assess this co-morbidity. CES-D is a 20-item survey assessing affective depressive symptomatology to screen for risk of depression. Scores range from 0-60, with a score of 16 commonly used as a clinically relevant cut-off. The higher the score, the more suggestive of depressive symptoms. | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) | |
Secondary | Change in Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) scores | The Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) is a seven-item screening tool for anxiety that is widely used in primary care. GAD-7 is a brief, reliable and valid measure of assessing generalized anxiety disorder. A score of 10 or greater on the GAD-7 represents a reasonable cut point for identifying cases. Cut points of 5, 10, and 15 might be interpreted as representing mild, moderate, and severe levels of anxiety. | Baseline to V3 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for EI; Baseline to V5 (8-10 weeks following completion of the intervention for DI) |
