A case-control study of musculoskeletal impairment: association with socio-economic status, time use and quality of life in post-conflict Myanmar.

Adults with MSI in Myanmar who are not in receipt of rehabilitative services may be at increased risk of poverty and lower quality of life in relation to increased health needs and limited opportunities to participate in productive work. This study highlights the need for more comprehensive and appropriate support to persons with physical impairments in Myanmar.
