Abstract

OBJECTIVES To conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis of chronic back pain (CBP). METHODS Adults of European ancestry were included from 16 cohorts in Europe and North America. CBP cases were defined as those reporting back pain present for >3–6 months; non-cases were included a...
