School Absenteeism in Pediatric Chronic Pain: Identifying Lessons Learned From the General School Absenteeism Literature
Abstract
Although the high rates of school absenteeism among children and adolescents with chronic pain have been well-documented, school absenteeism among these youths remains a poorly understood phenomenon. Literature focusing on school avoidance or refusal in the general (non-pain) population holds potential for contributing to a better understanding of problematic school absenteeism in the pediatric chronic pain population. This article presents a focused review of what is known about school absenteeism in pediatric chronic pain and how the literature on problematic absenteeism in the general population can inform an understanding of this phenomenon.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
