概要	The McGill Pain Questionnaire (MPQ) is a multidimensional pain assessment instrument developed by Ronald Melzack in 1975. It measures pain across sensory, affective, and evaluative dimensions, allowing clinicians and researchers to capture the qualitative experience of pain beyond simple intensity ratings. The MPQ remains one of the most widely used pain assessment tools in clinical and research settings.	The Neuropathic Pain Scale (NPS) is a 10-item self-report instrument developed by Jensen and colleagues to measure the quality and intensity of pain associated with neuropathic conditions (nerve damage, peripheral neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia, spinal cord injury pain). The NPS captures pain descriptors (sharp, cold, burning, sensitive, itching) and sensations characteristic of neuropathic pain, distinguishing them from nociceptive (tissue-damage-related) pain.
