Summary:This was an observational study. This study aims to explore sociodemographic and regional geographic variations in lower back pain (LBP) incidence, prevalence, and burden in the United States (US from 2000 to 2019). LBP is a major contributor to lost wages and disability in the United States. As LBP is associated with increasing age and sedentary lifestyle, the incidence of LBP is expected to rise. Due to LBP's multifactorial causes, US epidemiological trends lack sufficient data. Descriptive epidemiological data including disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), incidence, and prevalence per 100,000 population from 2000 to 2019 were collected from the Global Burden of Disease database. State-level data regarding poverty, insurance and employment status were obtained from the US Government Census Bureau and US Department of Labor. Statistical significance was indicated by P
