2013, Spine JournalCitation Excerpt :Low back pain has been found to be related to variables such as age, sex, educational level, exercise, and smoking [11,12,29]. Empirically, the association between socioeconomic status and LBP was inconsistent in the existing literature [30–32]. Our basic exploratory analyses did show that persons in the low-income group were more likely to have a more physically heavy workload, to be a smoker, to have a higher BMI, and were less educated than high-income group.
Musculoskeletal problems and ergonomic risk assessment in rubber tappers: A community-based study in southern Thailand
2012, International Journal of Industrial ErgonomicsCitation Excerpt :Social stress or emotions increase pain perception and decrease pain thresholds. Similar to previous reports (Nagi et al., 1973; Reisbord and Greenland, 1985), we found a significant association between lower levels of education and income and low back pain, however, the association of working while in poor general health and low back pain among people of low socioeconomic status remains unknown. Since, we found that abnormal physical ergonomic factors were associated with low back pain.
The Epidemiology of low back pain
2010, Best Practice and Research: Clinical RheumatologyCitation Excerpt :Manahan et al. found in their study of 1685 villagers in the Philippines that low back pain was not related to gender [125], while Anderson found no significant differences in the prevalence of back pain between men and women in Nepal [126]. Low educational status has been shown to be associated with an increased prevalence of low back pain [127–130]. This association is an even stronger predictor of episode duration and poor outcomes from low back pain [128].
