This first hierarchical umbrella review examined systematic reviews and meta-analyses, also observational studies and randomized controlled trials (where reviews are currently lacking) to report CP prevalence, risk factors, and treatment across mental disorders.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0924933825100746_sec2\" sec-type=\"methods\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We searched MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Embase, Web of Science, and CINAHL, identifying 20 studies on anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, autism, or dementia, and CP.

Risks were elevated, with bidirectional links in depression (OR = 1.26\u20131.88). Risk factors included female gender, symptom severity, and socioeconomic disadvantage, though data were limited beyond PTSD and depression. Treatment evidence was sparse: cognitive behavioral therapy showed small effects on pain (SMD = 0.27, 95% CI -0.08\u20130.61), acupuncture with medication improved pain (MD = -1.06, 95% CI -1.65\u2013-0.47), and transcranial direct current stimulation reduced pain in dementia (d = 0.69\u20131.12). Methodological issues were evident, including heterogeneous designs and inconsistent pain definitions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0924933825100746_sec4\" sec-type=\"conclusions\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review confirms CP as a significant comorbidity in mental disorders. Clinicians should prioritize routine pain screening and multimodal treatments. Researchers need longitudinal studies with standardized assessments to clarify causality and improve interventions. Taken together, this work highlights an urgent need for integrated psychiatric care approaches, emphasizing that addressing CP could enhance mental health outcomes and overall patient
