Extending conceptual frameworks: life course epidemiology for the study of back pain (2010)
Journal Article
(2010). Extending conceptual frameworks: life course epidemiology for the study of back pain. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 23 - ?. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2474-11-23

Epidemiological studies have identified important causal and prognostic factors for back pain, but these frequently only identify a proportion of the variance, and new factors add little to these models. Recently, interest has increased in studying d... Read More about Extending conceptual frameworks: life course epidemiology for the study of back pain.
