| Abstrakt: | The objective was to investigate if age and gender affect the importance of domains of functioning when grading disability related to neck pain. Multi-group confirmatory factor analysis of register-based data on 392 patients undergoing cervical surgery was applied. The main outcome was item loadings on a common factor. The mean age was 55 years and 52% were women. The factor structure was different for both gender and age groups, P < 0.0001. Reading, driving, pain intensity, and recreational activity had the highest loadings while headaches, lifting, and sleep placed the lowest. Reading and pain intensity had bigger weight among men than women, while recreational activity and driving had higher loadings in women. Reading and work were more important for the younger than for the older respondents, while recreational activity was more important for the older respondents. The importance of factors determining disability caused by neck pain may vary by gender and age. (Copyright © 2022 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.) |
