The central sensitization inventory (CSI) evaluates the central sensitization (CS)-related symptoms associated with increased pain sensitivity. However, the CSI includes items that are not directly related to pain. In this study, 146 patients with pain were classified into subgroups by k-means cluster analysis based on the short form of the central sensitization inventory (CSI9) and pain scores. In addition, inter-group and multiple comparisons were performed to examine the characteristics of each group. As a result of this study, there were three subgroups (clusters 1, 2, and 3) in which the CSI9 and pain intensity were both low, moderate, and high, and one subgroup (cluster 4) in which only CSI9 was high and pain intensity was low. Two subgroups with high CSI9 scores but contrasting pain intensities (clusters 3 and 4) were extracted; the pattern of CS-related symptoms in these two groups was very similar, with no differences in most of the non-pain factors. It is necessary to consider these points when interpreting the clinical condition of a patient with pain when using the assessment of CS-related symptoms.
