Population-based study of the association of osteoporosis and chronic musculoskeletal pain and locomotive syndrome: the Katashina study

The %YAM of the SOS was associated with the population demonstrating locomotive dysfunction which was identified using the GLFS-25, and the severity of locomotive dysfunction evaluated by the GLFS-25 was found to correlate with the %YAM of the SOS. Furthermore, low back pain, shoulder pain and knee pain were found to be associated with the screening results for locomotive dysfunction by the GLFS-25.
