Background: Low back pain (LBP) is a common musculoskeletal problem globally. Updating the prevalence and burden of LBP important for researchers policy makers. This paper presents, compares contextualizes global years lived with disability (YLDs) by age, sex region, from 1990 to 2017. Methods: Data were extracted GBD (the Global Burden Disease, Injuries, Risk Factors Study) 2017 Study. Age, region-specific analyses conducted estimate YLDs LBP, uncertainty intervals (UIs). Results: The...

The incidence and etiology of falls in patients following hip fracture remains poorly understood. We prospectively investigated the of, risk factors for, recurrent injurious community-dwelling persons admitted for surgical repair minimal-trauma fracture. Fall surveillance methods included phone calls, medical records, fall calendars. Potential predictors health status, quality life, nutritional body composition, muscle strength, range motion, gait velocity, balance, walking endurance,...

The objective of this paper is to provide an overview methods used for estimating the burden from musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions in Global Burden Diseases 2010 study. It should be read conjunction with disease-specific MSK papers published Annals Rheumatic Diseases. estimates (disability-adjusted life years (DALYs)) were made five specific conditions: hip and/or knee osteoarthritis (OA), low back pain (LBP), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), gout and neck pain, 'other conditions' category. For...
