Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Large-scale epidemiological studies to investigate genetic and environmental influences on disease often have very low participation rates. We aimed to determine the extent of selection bias within one such study, UK Biobank. The focus of the investigation was chronic pain and the extent to which this study replicated information on prevalence and associated factors determined from previous studies.
