Master H, Castillo R, Wegener ST, Pennings JS, Coronado RA, Haug CM, Skolasky RL, Riley LH 3rd, Neuman BJ, Cheng JS, Aaronson OS, Devin CJ, Archer KR. Master H, et al. Among authors: skolasky rl. BMC Musculoskelet Disord. 2021 Oct 18;22(1):883. doi: 10.1186/s12891-021-04622-w. BMC Musculoskelet Disord. 2021. PMID: 34663295 Free PMC article.
However, future research is needed to examine whether promoting physical activity during the early postoperative period may result in improvement of long-term physical function. Since depression and fear of movement had a very small mediating effect, additional work is nee …

The Relationship Between Neighborhood Deprivation and Perceived Changes for Pain-Related Experiences Among US Patients with Chronic Low Back Pain During the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Rassu FS, McFadden M, Aaron RV, Wegener ST, Ephraim PL, Lane E, Brennan G, Minick KI, Fritz JM, Skolasky RL. Rassu FS, et al. Among authors: skolasky rl. Pain Med. 2021 Nov 26;22(11):2550-2565. doi: 10.1093/pm/pnab179. Pain Med. 2021. PMID: 34181008 Free PMC article.
CONCLUSIONS: The current findings offer evidence that changes in pain coping during the pandemic may be disproportionately worse for those living in deprived areas. Considering poorer pain coping may contribute to long-term consequences, the current findings suggest the ne …
