The highest rates were identified in Blacks followed by Whites, Hispanics, and American Indian/Alaskan Native and the lowest rates in Asians/Pacific Islanders. Significant differences in the effect of gender and age were identified between the different racial groups. Knox JB, Orchowski JR, Owens B. Spine (Phila Pa 1976). 2012 Mar 27.
