Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Purpose: Vocational rehabilitation (VR) is an intervention to improve return to work for patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP). However, a systematic overview of characteristics of referred patients or eligible for VR is lacking, which hinders comparability across studies. Objectives were (1) to describe characteristics of patients with CMP referred to and eligible for VR and (2) to identify factors that contribute to VR eligibility. Methods: This study used a multicenter, cross-sectional design. Data of self-reported questionnaires were obtained between 2013 and 2019 from care as usual of eight Dutch VR centers. Descriptive statistics were performed to describe sociodemographic, pain-related, and work-related characteristics. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors contributing to VR eligibility. Results: Data sets of n = 2970 referred patients were included. The mean age was 46 years and 60% were female. Low back (43%), neck (37%), and shoulder pain (34%) were most reported. 82% Worked in paid employment. The absenteeism rate was 85%, and 44% was partially absent. After multidisciplinary screening, 62.2% were eligible for VR. Persons most likely to be eligible for VR (OR < 1.20) were those having back or neck pain, whereas least eligible (OR < 0.80) were persons having pain in hand/fingers or pain in other regions, unemployed workers, and those referred by a ‘other’ medical specialists. All other factors contributed little or none to the model. Conclusions: An extensive description of sociodemographic, pain-related, and work-related characteristics is presented for patients eligible for VR. Especially having back/neck pain and being an employee were associated with higher chance of eligibility for VR.
