Sammendrag
Background: Little is known about the association between parental chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) and

occurrence of CMP in the adult offspring. The main objective of this study was to assess the parent-offspring

association of CMP, and also to examine possible modifying effects of age and sex.

Methods: The study includes 11 248 parent-offspring trios from the Norwegian HUNT Study with information on

parental CMP obtained in 1995–97 and offspring CMP obtained in 2006–08. Logistic regression was used to calculate

adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for offspring CMP associated with parental CMP.

Results: Maternal and paternal CMP was associated with 20-40% increased odds of CMP in sons and daughters. Both

sons and daughters had an OR of 1.6 (95% CI 1.4 to 1.9) when both parents reported CMP, compared to when none of

the parents had CMP. Restricting the analyses to parental CMP that was associated with limited work ability and leisure

time activity did not change the strength of the association. Further, analyses stratified by parental age ±65 years

showed no clear difference in the estimated associations, and there was no evidence of interaction for parental sex

(P ≥ 0.39) or offspring age ±40 years (P ≥ 0.26).

Conclusions: This large family-linkage study show that maternal and paternal CMP are positively associated with CMP

in the adult offspring, irrespective of parental and offspring age, and that the associations are strongest when both

parents have CMP. Although the high prevalence of CMP in both parents and offspring suggests that not all cases are

clinically relevant, the results suggest that chronic pain has a heritable component.
