title: Genome-wide association summary statistics of chronic musculoskeletal pain at four anatomic sites and their genetically independent components

description: The dataset contains results of a genome-wide association study of distinct chronic musculoskeletal pain conditions: back pain, knee pain, neck pain, and hip pain. Additionally, there are genome-wide association summary statistics for four genetically independent components of pain conditions, listed above. For more details, please, read the paper XXX. All files contain association summary statistics for genome-wide association meta-analysis of the 265,000 white British individuals from the UK Biobank and additional 191,580 individuals of European Ancestry from the UK biobank (total N = 456,580). Cases and controls were defined based on questionnaire responses. First, participants responded to “Pain type(s) experienced in the last months” followed by questions inquiring if the specific pain had been present for more than 3 months. Those who reported back, neck or shoulder, hip, or knee pain lasting more than 3 months were considered chronic back, neck/shoulder, hip, and knee pain cases, respectively. Participants reporting no such pain lasting longer than 3 months were considered controls (regardless of whether they had another regional chronic pain, such as abdominal pain, or not). Individuals who preferred not to answer were excluded from the study. Besides this, we excluded individuals who reported more than 3 months of pain all over the body.
