“…The roster of chronic NCDs that are positively correlated with chronic pain are myriad, [14] including but not limited to diabetes, [15,16] arthritis, [17] depression, [18,19] and asthma, [20] among others. Chronic NCDs account for over 60 percent of the global burden of mortality, [21] with generally increasing epidemiologic trajectories across the globe [22,23].…”

BackgroundPain is an enormous problem globally. Estimates suggest that 20% of adults suffer from pain globally and 10% are newly diagnosed with chronic pain each year. Nevertheless, the problem of pain has primarily been regarded as a medical problem, and has been little addressed by the field of public health.DiscussionDespite the ubiquity of pain, whether acute, chronic or intermittent, public health scholars and practitioners have not addressed this issue as a public health problem. The importance of viewing pain through a public health lens allows one to understand pain as a multifaceted, interdisciplinary problem for which many of the causes are the social determinants of health. Addressing pain as a global public health issue will also aid in priority setting and formulating public health policy to address this problem, which, like most other chronic non-communicable diseases, is growing both in absolute numbers and in its inequitable distribution across the globe.SummaryThe prevalence, incidence, and vast social and health consequences of global pain requires that the public health community give due attention to this issue. Doing so will mean that health care providers and public health professionals will have a more comprehensive understanding of pain and the appropriate public health and social policy responses to this problem.

“…Bei muskuloskelettalen Erkrankungen -insbesondere bei Arthropathien und Rückenschmerzen -ist bekannt, dass eine enge Beziehung zwischen der somatischen Erkrankung und psychischen, insbesondere depressiven Beschwerden und Störungen, besteht [4,5,6,7,8,9,10]. Aufgrund des hohen, stetig steigenden Anteils von Patienten mit muskuloskelettalen Erkrankungen und der resultierenden negativen gesundheitsökonomischen Folgen [11,12] sind ein frühzeitiges Erkennen, eine valide Diagnose und eine adäquate Behandlung komorbider psychischer Störungen notwendig.…”

The present review summarizes the evidence on epidemiology, etiology, and treatment of comorbid mental disorders in patients with musculoskeletal diseases. Epidemiological studies highlight a significantly increased risk of comorbid mental disorders in patients with musculoskeletal diseases compared to patients without musculoskeletal diseases and physically healthy persons. With regard to the question of the causal link between these comorbidities, specific musculoskeletal disease-mental disorder combinations show specific pathogenetic pathways. Using the example of arthritis-depression comorbidity, a causality model is presented. This model describes depression as following arthritis and, in turn, aggravating the course of arthritis. Treatment studies emphasize the effectiveness of both psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacological interventions for the treatment of patients with musculoskeletal diseases and comorbid mental disorders. In particular, collaborative care interventions are promising approaches to improve the routine care of comorbid patients.
