Abstract:
Non-specific low back pain (LBP) is a common condition in the USA, with approximately 80% of adults who will have LBP at some point during their life and roughly 30% of the adult population suffering from LBP at any given time. Although LBP is the most common cause of disability in the USA, it often has no identifiable anatomic or physiologic cause. Many patients seeking care for non-specific LBP receive X-rays and other imaging studies. However, for most acute LBP patients, symptoms resolve within 4 weeks and the use of routine imaging may result in unnecessary radiation exposure and add unne

Abstract:
Non-specific low back pain (LBP) occurs in most people at least once in a lifetime. In city polyclinics, every fourth patient complains of LBP. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the prevalence of acute non-specific LBP and chronic LBP have increased due to physical inactivity, chronic stress, and anxiety. Musculoskeletal LBP is the second most common cause of disability. In this regard, it is important to consider modern principles for the diagnosis and treatment of non-specific LBP. Diagnostic algorithms, “red flags” (dangerous symptoms), “yellow flags” (chronification factors) in LBP are discuss

Introduction: About 40% of people have low back pain (LBP) at some point in their lives. Non specific LBP where precise pathoanatomical diagnosis cannot be given comprises almost 85% of patients with isolated low back pain. Lumbosacral radiograph is preferred by most of the physicians for the initial assessment of the LBP. It is therefore crucial to evaluate patients with LBP and assess for possible relationship between low back pain and patient characteristics.

Abstract:
In patients presenting with low back pain (LBP), once specific causes are excluded (fracture, infection, inflammatory arthritis, cancer, cauda equina and radiculopathy) many clinicians pose a diagnosis of non-specific LBP. Accordingly, current management of non-specific LBP is generic. There is a need for a classification of non-specific LBP that is both data- and evidence-based assessing multi-dimensional pain-related factors in a large sample size.

Methods: Manual workers currently in lifting occupations with and without a history of lifting-related LBP were recruited (21 LBP and 20 noLBP) and took part in a repeated (100) lift task.

Abstract:
The thoracolumbar fascia (TLF) plays an important role in lower back pain (LBP). Recent studies have revealed an association between increases in TLF thickness and reduced TLF gliding in patients with LBP. The purpose of this study was to measure and compare by ultrasound (US) imaging the thickness of the TLF at the bilateral L3 level of the lumbar spine in the longitudinal and transverse axes in chronic non-specific LBP and in healthy subjects. A cross-sectional study was performed using US imaging to measure the longitudinal and transverse axes with a new protocol in a sample of 92 subjects:

Background and Objectives: In patients with non-specific chronic low back pain (LBP), their pain and problem sides can differ. Clinical Pilates assessment provides an approach to identify the problem side, but this approach requires experience and can be subjective. This study aimed to investigate if objective measures of single-leg squat postural control and hamstrings flexibility could identify the problem side in adults with non-specific chronic LBP. Materials and Methods: Forty adults with non-specific chronic LBP were tested on single-leg squat postural control and hamstrings flexibility.

However, gender-specific studies of circulating LBP levels in sepsis patients are scarce.
