  1. *Multilevel mixed-effects and interaction with time variable for the outcomes collected weekly
  2. βIncidence-Rate Ratio (IRR) refer to care-seeking and activity limitation. Pain is presented as coefficient (Coef)
  3. aCare-seeking due to LBP in the last week (yes or no)
  4. bActivity limitation due to LBP in the last week (yes or no)
  5. cLow Back Pain level in the last week measured with the numerical rating scale (0-10); Coef.: coefficient; IRR: Incidence Risk Ratio; CI: Confidence Interval
