Abstract
We begin this letter by acknowledging the European Journal of Pain's commitment to promoting inclusion, diversity and equity in pain research and upholding the pain field to rigorous standards of integrity in research conduct (Palermo et al. 2025; Palermo et al. 2023). In this correspondence, we draw the attention of your readership to the recent publication of our author group in Lancet EClinicalMedicine: ‘Identifying Social Factors that Stratify Health Opportunities and Outcomes (ISSHOOs) in pain research: Consensus recommendations for the collection and reporting of equity-relevant data’ (Karran et al. 2025b). This manuscript details globally relevant, consensus-derived recommendations for use in human pain research that are closely aligned with the principles and values your journals promote.
