Article Abstract
Objective: Long-lasting pain is a challenge for pa-tients' everyday lives. The aim of this study was to examine how women and men who have participa-ted in multimodal pain rehabilitation experience its impact in their everyday lives.
Patients And Methods: Individual semi-structured interviews with 5 women and 3 men who had parti-cipated in multimodal pain rehabilitation at a clinic in Sweden, analysed using qualitative content ana-lysis.
Results: Participants perceived that their "sense of control" increased, which had a positive impact in their everyday life. Sense of control consisted of 3 categories: importance of the patient-provider re-lationship, knowledge gained (especially on body functions and medication), and pain in a social con-text. Three results were discussed in particular: () a trustful patient-provider relationship based on confidence in the provider's expertise was a pre-requisite for pain acceptance; () patients were aware of gender norms in healthcare; () social support was not stressed as important to cope with pain.
Conclusion: The importance of patients' confidence in the provider's expertise and patients' awareness about gender norms need consideration in terms of the patient-provider encounter. The value of social support for pain rehabilitation was found to be less important compared with previous research; this should be explored further.

Aim: This study is aims to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) and percutaneous pedicle screw fixation (PPSF) in managing osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) among middle-aged and elderly individuals.
Methods: A total of 142 patients aged 55-65 years were selected retrospectively from the Department of Orthopedics of our hospital from June 2021 to June 2023 and classified into PKP (n = 68) and PPSF (n = 74) groups. General data of patients were collected, and related perioperative indicators, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scores, changes in Cobb angle of the fractured vertebrae, vertebral compression rate, as well as postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.
