MAZE-ROTHSTEIN, J. The self-insurer appeals from a decision awarding the employee workers’ compensation benefits for mental and chronic pain conditions causally related to a fall at work. The self-insurer is correct that there is inadequate support for the conclusion that the fall at work remained a major cause of the employee’s depression, a non-work-related condition which pre-existed the industrial incident. See G. L. c. 152, §1(7A) . We therefore recommit the case for further findings on the extent of incapacity.
