DOLORisk is a multi-centre observational study that aims to understand the risk factors and determinants for neuropathic pain. Participant recruitment occurred between 2015 and 2019. The main longitudinal branch of the study consisted of 2 existing population cohorts: Generation Scotland (a family-based study) and GoDARTS (Genetics of Diabetes Audit and Research in Tayside Study—focused on diabetes), whose participants were contacted by the University of Dundee to be rephenotyped for neuropathic pain (approximately 9,000 respondents at baseline). Aarhus University and INSERM recruited smaller cohorts of participants scheduled to undergo chemotherapy, thoracic surgery, or breast cancer surgery.
