Machado L, et al. - Researchers aimed at determining the correlates of a recent history of disabling low back pain (LBP) in older persons in this Pain in the Elderly (PAINEL) Study derived from the Frailty among Brazilian Older Adults (FIBRA) Network Study. A recent history of disabling LBP was more frequently reported in women and under financial strain. The multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that overweight, low physical activity level, fatigue, depression diagnosis, and frequently recurring LBP were independently associated with a recent history of disabling LBP. Findings supported that in a middle-income country with a rapidly aging population, a correlation exists between disabling LBP and other age-related chronic conditions.
