Abstract:
Aim: To compare the hematological parameters associated with systemic inflammation between acute and subacute/chronic nonspecific low back pain and to evaluate their diagnostic roles in relation to chronicity in low back pain. Materials & methods: This retrospective case–control study included 150 participants aged 18–65 years with acute nonspecific low back pain, 150 with subacute/chronic nonspecific low back pain, 150 as the control group. Results: Red cell distribution width was significantly higher in the subacute/chronic pain group compared with the acute pain group (p = 0.003), and had a poor diagnostic value for chronicity (cutoff: 11.95, p = 0.003). There were no significant differences in terms of other parameters (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Red cell distribution width has a poor diagnostic value for chronicity in nonspecific low back pain.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates position awareness of the low back, measured using an electrogoniometer, in participants with and without recurrent non-specific low back pain (NSLBP). The ability to appreciate body position and movement makes an essential contribution to control of posture and functional movement. Pain may impair this awareness and initiate or exacerbate joint damage. Impairment of position awareness in the low back has been reported in patients with chronic low back pain. In addition, work-related activities may impair positional awareness, particularly in people experiencing LBP. The accuracy, stability and through range test-retest reliability of the electrogoniometer was assessed. It was found to be a reliable measure of degrees during movement in the sagittal plane between 0 to +/- 60 degrees, when compared to measurements using a calibrated, highly accurate, bevel protractor (mean error differences below 0.5 degrees for all tests). Low back position awareness was measured before and after a shift of work, in sitting and standing, in 61 people with recurrent NSLBP and 40 without a history of LBP. In addition, secondary analysis investigated the effect of occupation (manual workers, sedentary workers, drivers) on position sense. Low back position awareness was also measured in 50 people with recurrent NSLBP and 50 without a history of LBP during mid-range of sagittal plane movement of the low back in sitting; and when trying to return to a "good" sitting posture. There were no differences between participants with and without recurrent NSLBP in repositioning accuracy of the low back during any of the studies. When investigating the effect of occupation however, only sedentary workers achieved the power required for analysis. People with LBP positioned their "good" sitting posture significantly closer to end-range of low back extension, than people without LBP (12.47 SD8.46, v’s 16.51 SD9.41 degrees respectively; P=0.026). Recurrent NSLBP and sedentary work-related activities did not affect accuracy of position awareness in the low back. In people with recurrent NSLBP however, the position of their "good" sitting posture closer to end-range low back extension could lead to greater compressive loading of pain-sensitive spinal tissue, as well as increases in facet joint forces and shear forces on discs. These mechanisms may be aetiologic in the recurrence and maintenance of LBP. This finding may have implications for clinical practice, with consideration perhaps given to assessing the position of "good" sitting posture and its relationship to end-range in patients with LBP. Future research should investigate this further in larger populations of people with and without LBP, including specific sub-groups of LBP.

Abstract:
The Efficacy of Kinesio Taping as an Adjunct Intervention to Traditional Physical Therapy in the Treatment of Nonspecific Acute Low Back Pain: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial Background: Acute low back pain (LBP) is a significant health problem worldwide and is one of the leading causes of disability. Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of Kinesio Taping (KT) on disability, fear-avoidance beliefs, and pain intensity in patients with acute, nonspecific LBP. Research Design and Methods: A prospective, randomized controlled study of consecutive patients referred to physical therapy with a primary complaint of LBP. Seventy-eight patients with acute, nonspecific LBP were randomized to an experimental group that received traditional physical therapy plus KT and a control group that received traditional physical therapy alone. Interventions were administered twice a week for 4 weeks. Assessment tools used were Ronald Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) for disability, Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) for fear-avoidance beliefs, and Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) for pain intensity. Assessments were conducted at baseline, end of week 1, end of week 2, end of week 3, and end of week 4. Analysis: Repeated measures mixed model analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine the effect of treatment on each variable. The group type was the between-subjects variable and the time was the within-subjects variable. A significance level of .05 was used in the analyses. Results: Both groups showed statistically significant lower disability, fear-avoidance beliefs, and pain levels over time compared with baseline scores (p < .0001). The experimental group showed statistically significant lower RMDQ scores at week 2, 3, and 4 (p < .05), statistically significant lower FABQ-physical activity subscale scores at the end of week 1 (p < .01), at the end of week 2 (p < .01), at the end of week 3 (p < .01), and at the end of week 4 (p < .05), statistically significant lower FABQ-work subscale scores at week 3 (p < .05) and week 4 (p < .01), and statistically significant lower NPRS scores at week 1, 2, 3, and 4 (p < .05). Conclusion: Kinesio Taping can be considered a useful adjunct intervention to reduce disability and pain and to modulate fear-avoidance beliefs in patients with acute, nonspecific LBP.

Abstract:
Les lombalgies représentent la principale cause d'invalidité dans le monde depuis 1990. Sa forme chronique (durée supérieure à 3 mois) affecte 10 à 15% des cas et représente 70 à 90% du coût total lié aux lombalgies. De plus, un diagnostic précis ne peut être obtenu que dans 10-15% des cas en raison d'un manque de connaissances de la pathophysiologie catégorisant ces lombalgies comme non-spécifiques. Chercheurs et cliniciens ont mis en avant le besoin d’identifier des sous-groupes au sein de la population lombalgique chronique non-spécifique (NSCLBP) afin d’optimiser la prise en charge thérapeutique. Dans ce contexte, un projet de classification des patients NSCLBP intégrant une approche multifactorielle a été mis en place. En effet, divers facteurs contribuent au développement et à la persistance des NSCLBP. Parmi ces facteurs, on retrouve les altérations de l’activité des muscles lombaires. Ces travaux de thèse se sont intéressés à ces altérations et représentent une partie du projet d’identification des sous-groupes.La littérature met en évidence différentes altérations dans l’activité électromyographique (EMG) des muscles lombaires chez les patients NSCLBP lors de l’exécution de plusieurs tâches fonctionnelles telles que la marche, le soulever de charge, le transfert assis-debout et encore la montée d’escaliers. Parmi ces altérations EMG, l’asymétrie neuromusculaire entre le côté droit et le côté gauche a montré une influence sur l’effet de la réhabilitation, le recrutement musculaire et la persistance de la douleur. Ces éléments font de l’asymétrie neuromusculaire un facteur important pour la compréhension de la pathophysiologie des NSCLBP. Cependant, peu d’études, à ce jour, se sont intéressées à l’asymétrie droite/gauche de l’activité des muscles lombaires. Étudier cette asymétrie pourrait permettre une meilleure compréhension de la pathophysiologie des NSCLBP.L’objectif de cette thèse était donc de caractériser l’asymétrie de l’activité des muscles lombaires lors de différentes tâches motrices et d’évaluer sa pertinence dans le processus d’identification de sous-groupes de patients NSCLBP. Pour répondre à ces objectifs, quatre études complémentaires ont été menées au cours de tâches motrices nécessitant un mouvement synchrone entre droite et gauche.Dans leur ensemble, ces travaux de thèse mettent en évidence une altération globale de l’activité EMG des muscles lombaires au cours des quatre tâches motrices étudiées que sont le test de Sorensen, la flexion antérieure maximale du tronc, le transfert assis-debout et le soulever de charge. Malgré le fait que certaines altérations permettent une augmentation de la stabilité du tronc, elles peuvent toutes avoir des conséquences nocives à long terme. L’asymétrie neuromusculaire est l’une de ces altérations mais elle ne semble présente que lors de la tâche de flexion antérieure maximale du tronc. Considérant que le projet de classification se base principalement sur les altérations observées dans la population NSCLBP, l’intégration de l’asymétrie du phénomène de flexion-relaxation peut représenter un intérêt certain dans le processus d’identification des sous-groupes. Il serait aussi pertinent d’étendre l’analyse aux muscles de l’abdomen et du bassin ainsi que d’évaluer l’influence des paramètres psychologiques pour une compréhension plus complète de ces résultats<br>Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of disability worldwide since 1990. Its chronic form (lasting longer than 3 months) affects 10 to 15% of cases and represents 70 to 90% of the total cost of low back pain. Most LBP is classified as non-specific because the pain’s source cannot be precisely established in 85%–90% of cases. The need to identify subgroups of nonspecific chronic low back pain (NSCLBP) was highlighted by both clinicians and researchers in order to optimize therapeutic management. In this context, a project of NSCLBP subgroup identification based on a multifactorial approach has been established. Indeed, several factors contribute to the development and the persistence of NSCLBP. Alterations in the activity of the lumbar muscles have been suggested as one of these contributing factors. This doctoral work has focused on these alterations and represent a part of the subgroup identification project.Literature reported various alterations in the lumbar muscles activity of the NSCLBP patients during several tasks. Among these alterations, neuromuscular asymmetry between the left and right side was reported to influence muscle recruitment, rehabilitation and persistence of pain. These elements make neuromuscular asymmetry an important factor in understanding the pathophysiology of NSCLBP. However, few studies have investigated right / left asymmetry of lumbar muscle activity during functional tasks of the daily life. Studying this asymmetry would allow a better understanding of the pathophysiology of NSCLBP.This doctoral work aimed to characterise the neuromuscular asymmetry of NSCLBP patients in comparison with asymptomatic participants. To achieve this objective, several complementary studies were successively conducted.As a whole, this doctoral work highlights a global alteration of the activity of the lumbar muscles in NSCLBP patients during the four motor tasks studied. Most of these alterations aimed to enhance the stability of the spine but lead to potential long-term consequences. Neuromuscular asymmetry is one of these alterations but seems to be present only during maximal trunk forward bending. Considering the clustering project is mainly based on the alterations observed in the NSCLBP population, the integration of the asymmetry of the flexion-relaxation phenomenon may represent an interesting parameter in the process of identification of the subgroups. It would also be useful to extend the analysis to the abdominal and pelvis muscles as well as to evaluate the influence of the psychological parameters for a deeper understanding of these results

Abstract:
Le but de cette thèse est d’étudier s’il existe une méthode de récolte d’informations, autre que celle couramment utilisée, permettant de mieux décrire l’histoire naturelle des lombalgies non spécifiques. Pour cela, une revue de la littérature a été effectuée et une étude prospective dans la population générale danoise a été analysée. Deux méthodes de récolte d’informations sont utilisées pour caractériser cette évolution : la méthode usuelle par questionnaires, permettant de classer les douleurs lombaires en fonction du nombre total de jours avec douleurs dans une année, et une nouvelle méthode par suivi SMS prenant en compte la durée et le rythme des épisodes douloureux dans une année. Les résultats de la revue de littérature et l’analyse de la population générale danoise vont dans le même sens. L’évolution des douleurs lombaires est relativement stable, notamment pour ceux qui n’ont pas de douleurs en début d’étude. Les deux systèmes de classification, issus respectivement des deux méthodes de récolte, répartissent les individus en groupes non similaires. De plus, les associations de ces groupes avec des variables biopsychosociales ne sont pas les mêmes, différenciant ainsi cliniquement les groupes de chaque classification. Le suivi SMS permet d’apporter des informations plus détaillées sur le rythme des douleurs lombaires dans le temps et semble plus appropriée pour caractériser l’évolution d’une affection récurrente comme la lombalgie non spécifique. Ces résultats permettent maintenant de prévoir l’évolution des douleurs lombaires et vont faciliter l’étude plus précise de profils d’évolutions des individus afin d’améliorer le diagnostic qui, pour l’instant, reste un diagnostic d’exclusion<br>The aim of this thesis is to study if there is information gathering method, other than that commonly used to better describe the natural history of non-specific low back pain. For this, a literature review was performed and a prospective study in the Danish general population was analyzed. Two methods of gathering information are used to characterize this course: the usual method by questionnaires, classifying low back pain based on the total number of days with pain in one year, and a new SMS-Track method taking into account the duration and rhythm of painful episodes in a year. The results of the literature review and analysis of data on the Danish general population go in the same direction. The course of low back pain is fairly stable, especially for those who do not have pain at baseline. Both classification systems, respectively from the two methods of collection, divide individuals into different groups. In addition, associations of these groups with bio-psychosocial variables are not the same, differentiating clinically the groups of each classification. SMS-Track method provide more detailed information on the rhythm of low back pain over time and seems more appropriate to characterize the course of a recurring condition such as non-specific low back pain. These results now predict the natural history of low back pain and will facilitate the study of individual course patterns to improve the diagnosis, which remains, for now, a diagnosis of exclusion

Abstract:
Background: There is currently no access to effective treatment of low back pain (LBP) in rural Nigeria despite its significant burden in this context. This increases disability, deepens poverty, and reinforces rural-urban inequality. Evidence from developed countries suggests that psychosocial factors are associated with chronic low back pain (CLBP) disability, but no research has examined these factors in rural Nigeria. This PhD aims to explore the biopsychosocial factors associated with CLBP disability in rural Nigeria, and then develop and test the feasibility of an intervention to address them. Methods: Six studies were conducted as part of this PhD. Two qualitative studies to explore the experiences of people living with CLBP (Study 1), and the management of CLBP (Study 2) in rural Nigeria. The cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric testing of measures to assess any suggested biopsychosocial factors (Study 3). A cross-sectional survey to investigate the biopsychosocial factors associated with CLBP disability in rural Nigeria (Study 4). A systematic review to assess the intervention components to improve acceptability of exercises and physical activity behaviour in people with chronic non-communicable diseases in Africa (Study 5). The development of an exercise-based self-management programme (SMP) to target biopsychosocial factors associated with CLBP disability in rural Nigeria, and then conduct a feasibility study of this programme (Study 6). Results: Study 1 found maladaptive beliefs and coping strategies, emotional distress and disability among individuals with CLBP. Study 2 showed that CLBP was predominantly managed within a biomedical model. Study 3 found that the adapted measures were reliable and valid for use in rural Nigeria. Study 4 showed that psychosocial factors explained 63% and 49% of the variance in self-reported and performance-based CLBP disability respectively. Study 5 suggested that behavioural rehearsal/practice, habit formation, and restructuring the physical and social environment improved the acceptability of exercises, and physical activity behaviour. Study 6 found that the SMP was feasible and acceptable to participants, and had potential in terms of clinical (biopsychosocial) outcomes. Conclusions: This PhD has enabled the identification of the biopsychosocial factors associated with CLBP disability in rural Nigeria, and the development of a novel intervention that shows promise in addressing them.

Abstract:
A research report submitted to the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Witwatersrand, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science in Physiotherapy, 8 September 2017<br>BACKGROUND: Lower back pain (LBP) due to ergonomic exposure in a work environment is wide spread in most countries and is the leading cause of disability affecting quality of life and work performance of an individual suffering from it. LBP is the most common reason for repeated medical consultation and subsequent absenteeism. It is reported that LBP is responsible for a third of work related disability disorders and it is estimated to cause 21.7 million disability adjusted life years (DALY‘s). In addition to the physical impact, lower back pain can influence psychological issues such as anxiety, depression and fear of job loss. Mining is an ancient occupation characterised by intense physical labour such as lifting, carrying, pulling and pushing heavy materials, operating heavy machinery and working in constricted environment. Despite the fact that ergonomics plays a major role in mining, the element of proper ergonomics is currently ignored or applied in a minimal scale in South African mining.LBP continues to have a high prevalence in mining industries. AIM: To profile the disability level of Impala Mine workers presenting with nonspecific lower back pain. METHODS: A cross-sectional quantitative study using a consecutive sampling method was conducted on mine workers employed at Impala platinum mine as rock drill operators (RDOs) and scraper winch operators (SWOs) aged between 20 and 60 years who had been employed in the current occupation for at least a period of one year. Interviews were conducted using the questionnaires based on Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) assessing disability levels, Who Disability Assessment Schedule II (WHODAS II) for activity limitation and participation restriction and Who Quality of life-Bref (WHOQOL-BREF) to measure quality of life. The study received ethical approval from the University of the Witwatersrand Human Research Ethics Committee: (Medical) (Ethical clearance no.M140813). Consent was sort from participants and Impala hospitals granted permission for the study. Data was analysed using Statistica version12.5. Descriptive data was presented as frequencies expressed in percentages. The Spearman correlation test was applied to establish the association among variables. Further analysis was done by fitting bivariate and multivariate linear regression models to quantify the magnitude of relationship between age, job category, disability, activity limitation, participation restriction and quality of life. Finally data was illustrated by means of tables and a scatter graph.RESULTS: From the study sample, 44% (n=151) of the SWOs reported moderate disability while 36% (n=132) of the RDOs reported moderate disability. Results revealed that disability level was significantly associated with job category (p-value 0.04). Activity limitation level was adversely affected and showed a positive correlation with disability(r=0.831). Only a small proportion of participants reported severe participation restrictions RDOs (0. 76%) and SWOs (1. 99%). Majority of participants reported moderate to good Quality of life (QoL) with only a small proportion reporting poor QoL RDOs (4.55%) and SWOs(3.31%).The findings of the study showed no statistical difference between the two job categories in terms of activity limitation (p=0.20), participation restriction (p=0.31) and QoL (p=0.56). There was a negative correlation between QoL and disability (r=-0.536).The result of the bi-variate linear regression showed a statistical significance between age and years of service with disability (P=0.001). DISCUSSIONS: Disability due to nonspecific lower back pain (NSLBP) was significantly associated with job category, suggesting that SWOs were the category mostly affected than the RDOs. The results revealed no statistical difference between two job categories in relation to activity limitation, participation restrictions and QoL. Furthermore, the results showed a strong positive correlation between disability and activity limitation and a moderate positive correlation between disability and participation restriction while a moderate negative correlation between disability and QoL was noted. The results of the linear regression highlighted that increased age and long years of service predisposes the miners to higher levels of disability and activity limitation, resulting in difficulties with participation in work related or societal activities which subsequently leads to poor QoL. CONCLUSION: Results of the current study revealed that the majority of RDOs and SWOs presented with moderate disability due to NSLBP. This study identified that age, job category and length of service were significantly associated with the severity and functional disability of LBP among RDO‘s and SWO‘s.Activity limitation level was adversely affected among RDO‘s and SWO‘s whereas participation restriction levels and QoL levels were less affected.<br>DH2018

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北護理健康大學<br>資訊管理研究所<br>103<br>Many new care services have been developed as the society gets busier and the demand for extending health care services gets greater. Low back pain occurs at a rate that’s second only to the flu and most of it is nonspecific low back pain. The rehabilitation of low back pain needs to be done in medical institutions. For those who are busy and those without accessible transportation, it can be hard to do the rehabilitation regularly. This study mainly uses Motion-Sensing Technology to build a home-based rehabilitation system with nonspecific low back pain. This system allows patients with nonspecific low back pain to do rehabilitation treatment at home, saves health care expenditures, and assists with the shortage of caregivers. The VGB tool that is provided in Kinect for Windows SDK v2 builds a personal rehabilitation gesture database rapidly. This provides a confidence value that shows the similarity of the gesture to archive a personalized rehabilitation system. Physical therapists can check the gestures screenshots through the web and give advice to the patients for the best results.

Abstract:
Submitted in partial compliance with the requirements for the Master’s Degree in Technology: Chiropractic, Durban University of Technology, Durban, South Africa, 2018.<br>Background: Chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP) is a common ailment treated by chiropractors. Most chiropractors focus on the localised lumbar area of pain. Other chiropractors focus on restoring function to compensating articulations in the ‗full kinematic chain‘ by assessing and treating the lower extremity in conjunction to the low back. Patients with LBP often exhibit decreased hip-related ranges of motion that may result in future LBP, relapse and a prolonged recovery time. Studies investigating the effect of treating the kinematic chain in relation to LBP are limited and the literature, although widely taught and practiced, is largely anecdotal. Chiropractic manipulation has shown to be effective in the treatment of LBP and many lower extremity conditions. Objectives: This study set out to determine if a combination of low back and hip manipulation would result in a more beneficial outcome for the participant, suffering with CNSLBP, than low back manipulation alone in terms of objective and subjective outcomes. Method: The study was a randomised controlled clinical trial which, through purposive sampling, consisted of 50 participants with CNSLBP and hip joint dysfunction. The participants were randomly divided into two groups of 25 each [A and B]. Group A received low back manipulation alone and Group B received combined low back and hip manipulation. Subjective data was obtained through the Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index (ODI) and the Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). Objective data was obtained through the use of a Force Dial Algometer and an Inclinometer. Data collection occurred at the first, third and fifth consultations and was coded and analysed using IBM SPSS version 24.0. A p-value value of less than 0.05 was considered to be statistically relevant. Results: Intra-group testing showed that there was a significant difference over time, within both groups, with regards to internal rotation and external rotation of the hip, flexion of the lumbar spine, increased pain tolerance in Algometer tests, decreased NPRS values and decreased ODI scores. Within Group A, the mean scores for hip flexion reflected a more significant increase over time than those of Group B. Within Group B, the mean scores for left and right rotation of the lumbar spine reflected a more significant change over time than those of Group A. Inter-group testing showed no significantly differential treatment effect for any of the subjective and objective outcomes. This means that both treatments were equally effective and the hypothesis, that suggested that Group B would improve more than Group A, was incorrect. Conclusion: Both treatment groups improved subjectively and objectively with regards to CNSLBP. Inter-group testing showed that statistically, and for all outcome measurements, there were no significant differences between the two treatment group‘s results. This suggested that there was no additional benefit in combining hip joint manipulation with low back manipulation in the treatment of CNSLBP.<br>M

Abstract:
碩士<br>高雄醫學大學<br>運動醫學系碩士在職專班<br>105<br>Background: Low back pain becomes the major public health problem of the world. Total body Resistance eXercise (TRX) is a common unstable surface training of suspension system in recent years. The studies have reported that the TRX exercise can improve stabilization, strength, and the electromyogramphyactivation of the core muscles on heathy populations. However, there is no research to investigate the effects of TRX on patients with non-specific low back pain. Purpose: The patients with non-specific low back pain whether after 8-weeks TRX core exercise of unstable surface can improve the quality of life, functional activity, and satisfaction compared to mat exercise therapy of stable surface or modality therapy. Methods: Participants with recurrent pain were recruited and randomly divided into one of the three groups. In the TRX group, they participated in 8-weeks (16 times) TRX core exercise; in the mat exercise group, they participated in 8-weeks (16 times) mat exercise. The TRX group and mat exercise group, using plank, cross curl-ups, hamstring curl, kneeling roll-out of this four core movement as the core exercise; in the modality group, they only received the modality treatments. All participants received the modality treatments and were tested before the experiment, including: Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Questionnaire (ODI), trunk muscle endurance test, Biering-Sorensen test, Sahrmann test core stability test, and post-evaluations after 8 weeks of intevention. Furthermore, the TRX group evaluated the satisfaction questionnaire. Results: After 8 weeks of intevention, overall, in the VAS aspect: the TRX group and the mat exercise group had significantly lowered the pain socores compared to the modality group. In the ODI part: the TRX group had significantly improved diasblity compared with the mat exercise group and modality group. In addition, both TRX group and the mat exercise group have reached the minimal clinically important difference. In the trunk flexor endurance: the TRX group had significantly improved compared with the mat exercise group and the modality group; in the trunk extensor endurance: the TRX group had significantly improved compared to the modality group. Furthermore, in terms of improvement ratio, the TRX group showed the most significant differences in all of evlation items as compared to mat exercise group and modality groups. Regarding satisfaction: all subjects in the TRX group had a significant improvement in physical activity, self-confidence and self-healthy corresponding to 93% health satisfaction, more than 80% satisfaction with symptoms of relief. In the TRX core exercise, the patients felt plank was the most relaxed, but hamstring curl was most difficult. Conclusion: An 8-weeks TRX core exercise of unstable surface on patients with lower back pain provides more postivie effects in improving the quality of life, functional activities and trunk muscle endurance, core stability as compared to the mat exercise of stable surface and only modality use.

Abstract:
Introdução: A lombalgia é a principal causa de anos vividos com incapacidade, causando mais incapacidade do que qualquer outra condição musculoesquelética. É expectável que o seu impacto funcional continue a aumentar no futuro. Após 6 semanas, a probabilidade de desenvolvimento de lombalgia persistente e incapacitante aumenta para 40% dos utentes. Não existem estudos que descrevam quais as atividades funcionais do Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) mais comprometidas em cada grupo de risco identificado pelo Keele STarT Back Screening Tool (SBST) nem há conhecimento consistente relativamente aos fatores de prognóstico responsáveis pela cronicidade da condição. Objetivo: Identificar as atividades funcionais mais limitadas, verificar se a intensidade dos sintomas está associada à incapacidade funcional e estudar quais os fatores de prognóstico para a dor persistente e incapacitante, em indivíduos com lombalgia que recorrem aos Cuidados de Saúde Primários (CSP). Metodologia: Foi realizado um estudo de coorte prospetivo observacional, com a duração de 6 meses e com uma amostra de 203 indivíduos com lombalgia não específica que recorreram aos CSP. Os instrumentos utilizados foram a Escala Númerica da Dor (END) e as versões portuguesas da SBST e do RMDQ, existindo uma reavaliação aos 2 e 6 meses. Resultados: Uma idade avançada, valores elevados de dor e de incapacidade na avaliação inicial, pontuações elevadas na escala total e na escala psicossocial do SBST, o género feminino e a questão 21 do RMDQ são fatores de mau prognóstico para a lombalgia, aumentando a probabilidade de desenvolvimento de uma condição persistente no tempo. Conclusões: A identificação precoce da presença de fatores de prognóstico deve ser considerada pelos profissionais de saúde que lidam com utentes com lombalgia não específica, promovendo a sua educação em relação ao seu prognóstico de episódio de lombalgia, adequando o tipo de intervenção para cada utente e prevenindo o surgimento de uma condição persistente e incapacitante.<br>Background: Low back pain is the leading cause of years lived with disability, causing more disability than any other musculoskeletal condition. It is expected that its functional impact continues to grow in the future. After 6 weeks, the probability of developing a persistent and disabling low back pain increases for 40% of the patients. There are no studies that describe which functional activities of Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire (RMDQ) are more compromised in each risk group identified by Keele STarT Back Screening Tool (SBST) nor is there consistency about the prognostic factors responsible for the chronicity of the condition. Aim: To identify which functional activities are more limited, to verify if the intensity of symptoms is associated with functional disability and to study the prognostic factors for persistent disability and persistent pain, in patients with low back pain seeking primary healthcare. Methods: A observational, prospective cohort study was conducted within 6 months, with a sample of 203 patients with nonspecific low back pain seeking primary healthcare. Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and the portuguese versions of SBST and RMDQ were used, patients were followed up at 2 and 6 months. Results: An older age, high levels of pain and disability at the baseline, elevated scores in total scale and psychosocial scale of SBST, female gender and item 21 of RMDQ are poor prognostic factors for low back pain, increasing the probability of developing a persistent condition in the future. Conclusions: An early identification of the presence of prognostic factors must be considered by health professionals who deal with non-specific low back pain patients, improving their education related to low back pain prognosis, adjusting intervention for each patient and preventing a persistent and disabling condition.

Abstract:
Abstract We need a better approach to patients with low back pain (LBP). Current care is plagued by variability, over-medicalization of biopsychosocial problems, inequity, and an overemphasis on interventional and surgical care. Guidelines focused on the short-term management of acute LBP are generally not followed and have limited applicability in clinical care. The reality is that LBP is a chronic recurrent problem for most individuals. Care should therefore be directed toward long-term management and optimization of life and function. Importantly for this book, all LBP conditions are also not created equally. “Low back pain” is a symptom, not a diagnosis, and is analogous to symptoms like shortness of breath and abdominal pain. There are many specific conditions that can be related to or causal of LBP, and there are a numerous comorbidities and patient-specific concerns that influence care. As examples, disc herniations, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and scoliosis are all common imaging findings that may or may not be causing pain. When symptomatic, the treatment of all is different, and failing to ascertain their significance leads to inappropriate care and unnecessary suffering. LBP in patients with mental health issues, frailty, or chronic pain requires a different approach to similar symptoms in those without these concerns. Nonspecific and poorly verified diagnoses often confound treatment. The cases in this book reflect common clinical presentations. They provide clarity on specific conditions, explore the effects of inequity, take a critical approach to treatment, and offer practical information on effective front-line care for those with LBP.

Abstract:
Back pain is prevalent in adults, and most often its cause is nonspecific and benign. Imaging and interventions are not always helpful and they are generally expensive and low yield. However, in about 10% or fewer cases, a specific etiology is found. A patient history, physical examination, and testing are the methods for finding the cause. Back pain from malignancy must also be considered. Prolonged survival from better chemotherapy has increased the incidence of metastases to bone, especially the spine. Common sources of spinal metastases are cancers of the prostate, kidneys, thyroid, breast, and lungs. The primary treatment is to address the malignancy. Pain from spinal tumors can be treated with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, radiofrequency, or vertebral augmentation therapy. The chapter reviews the epidemiology of spinal cancer pain, evaluation of malignant spinal pain, and what the interventional pain physician can offer patients to alleviate their pain.

Abstract:
Most people will experience back pain at some point in their lives, but only a few have the resolve to seek answers and find relief. Back Exercise: Stabilize, Mobilize, and Reduce Pain explores the anatomy and movement of the spine and offers exercises that will help you move—and feel—better. Back Exercise goes beyond exercise and rehabilitation to help you understand the why behind spinal conditions and back pain. Throughout the book, unique clay models of the spine reveal each layer of the spinal anatomy, from the spinal vertebrae and discs to the muscle and tissue. These engaging full-color photos make it easy to visualize the structure and biomechanics of the spine and uncover the sources of your pain. You’ll then be guided through an evaluation of your current back health with a self-assessment. Using only the floor, a wall, and a camera, you can check your pain response to several simple exercises and identify postural deviations and muscular imbalances in your body. Once you’ve assessed your back mobility, the book features 60 exercises—complete with instructions and safety tips—that help stabilize, strengthen, and rehabilitate the spine. Create foundational stability for your spine, extend your range of motion, and relieve pain with exercises that build strength, mobility, and flexibility in your back. Finally, Back Exercise explores five common spinal conditions: nonspecific low back pain, disc bulge and herniation, spondylolisthesis, stenosis, and spinal surgeries such as spinal fusion. Six months’ worth of tailored exercise plans are presented for each condition, offering a safe progression of exercises to improve mobility, increase stability, and reduce pain. No one wants to live with back pain or discomfort. With Back Exercise you will understand the sources of your pain and take control of your back health for the long term.

Abstract:
Abstract There is a vast literature on the epidemiology of back pain but this chapter restricts itself to back pain in open populations. It concentrates mainly on investigations that have included both sexes, a broad range of age groups, all types of work (including housework), and work status including schooling, unemployment, and retirement. Thus studies of back pain in patient populations (for example Frymoyer et al. 1980) as well as ‘back pain in workers’ (for example Bombardier et al. 1985; Anderson 1981; Deyo 1988; Carey 1989) are virtually excluded. The subject of occupational back pain is so extensive as to be outside the scope of this book. Another area not considered in detail is that of ‘psychosomatic’ back pain, though many clinicians maintain that nonspecific back pain is often a result of psychological disturbances or conflicts. This neglect is due mostly to the fact that epidemiological studies have only very rarely included psychological variables. There is however sufficient common ground that this review will cover many relevant areas to those who are mainly interested in the epidemiology of occupational and psychosomatic back pain.

Abstract:
Abstract Many with low back pain (LBP) are frustrated with their pain and their care, often noting that they “have tried everything.” Care for LBP centers around treating LBP as a nonspecific, self-limiting problem, or chasing “pain generators” identified on imaging that can be “fixed” by some type of intervention. Both of these are wrong. There is no medication, interventional procedure, or surgery shown to reliably provide long-term relief of LBP. Those with LBP often develop a misunderstanding of their medical evaluation, the role of physical therapy, and the potential for medical/ surgical approaches to “fix” their problem. a Effective treatment requires understanding the complexities of their life, education, and empowerment. Sleep, exercise, diet, social engagement, and goals/ passions are fundamental human needs and care is structured around rebuilding these. The solution lies in helping people to improve their life rather than eliminating their pain.

Abstract:
Abstract Low back pain (LBP) is the second most common reason for short-term disability claims and the most common reason for long-term disability claims in the United States. It is often nonspecific with no red flag symptoms. Absent concerns for significant pathology like fracture or neurologic loss, imaging of the lumbar spine tends to show expected age-related changes and is unlikely to alter an initial recommendation of nonsurgical, noninvasive care. Coping with LBP has more to do with psychosocial confounders inside and/or outside the workplace than the magnitude of pain itself. Most injured workers will improve and return to work, so identifying risk factors for deviation from this expected pattern is important. There are many health-related, work-related, and systems-related factors predicting failure to return to work that should be identified.. While engaged in active treatment including physical therapy, light duty is recommended to promote return to work and mitigate psychosocial comorbidities.

Abstract:
Low back pain is pain in the posterior aspect of the body between the lower margin of the twelfth rib and the lower gluteal folds, and can radiate to the lower limbs. Classified by the American Physical Therapy Association's Clinical Practice Guideline as acute (up to six weeks) or chronic (more than six weeks). Studies show that 41.2% of university students suffer from low back pain exacerbated by biopsychosocial factors, such as catastrophizing, affecting their daily life. Therefore, the aim of this studywas to identify whether there is a relationship between catastrophizing and the intensity of chronic nonspecific low back pain in university students. This is an analytical cross-sectional study, approved by the Human Research Ethics Committee of the State University of Northern Paraná (Opinion: 6,082,631; CAAE 68394522.3.0000.8123). The sample consisted of 40 students from the State University of Northern Paraná (UENP), Jacarezinho campus -PR. All data collection took place in person at the university's physiotherapy clinic. Initially, the intensity of low back pain was measured using the Numerical Pain Scale (NDS) and later the Pain Catastrophizing Scale(PCS) was applied, which would evaluate catastrophizing of university students with the presence of nonspecific chronic low back pain (CLBP). The study included 40 university students with a mean age of 21 years, 70% of whom were women. Previous studies have shown that psychological aspects influence pain intensity and disability more than anatomical factors, corroborating the data found in our study, since there was a significant (moderate) correlation (p≤0.05) between pain intensity andthe B-PCS questionnaire score, suggesting that the higher the pain intensity, the higher the level of catastrophizing of university students. Thus, it is concluded that catastrophizing is related to pain intensity in university students with chronic nonspecific low back pain. These findings highlight the importance of addressing psychosocial factors in the treatment of patients with low back pain

Abstract:
Introduction: Chronic low back pain is the leading cause of disability, which reduces quality of life and increases the healthcare costs. Psychosocial factors (depression, kinesiophobia and somatization) may also have an important role in the appearance and duration of chronic nonspecific low back pain. Depression may predispose low back pain, while the chronicity of pain affects the degree of disability, which is also related to mental health. Many studies suggest the association between depression and low back pain by explaining a significant physiological link. Different types of manual therapy are used in the treatment of chronic low back pain, but recent studies suggest that a rehabilitation models which combine manual therapy and exercise, provide better results compared to individual (separate) applications. The aim of this research was to examine the effects of the rehabilitation program, which in-cludes manual yumeiho therapy and exercise, on depression in people suffering from chronic nonspecific low back pain. Methods: The study included 21 participants, aged 40 to 60 (M=51.1, SD=5.9) who suffer from chronic nonspecific low back pain. The study included the initial and final depression test and the initial and final neuropathic pain test. Between the initial and the final testing, a three-week therapeutic procedure of yumeiho manual therapy and exercise was performed (15 treatments). Repeated estimates of depression and neuropathic pain were tested 30 and 60 days after the implementation of the rehabilitation protocol. Results: Statistically significant improvements were noted between the initial and the final test in both observed variables. Significant improvements (lower depression and neuropathic pain) have also been noted 30 and 60 days after the implementation of the rehabilitation pro-tocol (in relation to the initial state). Conclusion: The findings indicate that the rehabilitation protocol, involving manual yumeiho therapy and exercise, is an effective method for treating depression and neuropathic pain in people suffering from chronic nonspecific low back pain. Considering the lack of research on the effects of manual therapy by yumeiho technique, the results contribute to a better under-standing of technique which, although used in practice, has not been suficiently explored. Further research is required, on comparing this rehabilitation model to other methods, as well as longer follow-up in the post-rehabilitation period.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Chronic low back pain is a common pathology, both in everyday life and in sports also. It impairs daily comfort, quality of life, and physical activity - for amateurs, and professionals. Doctors, physiotherapists, fitness trainers, psychologists, and others see into this issue. The causes of chronic low back pain can be mechanical, biochemical, and psycho-emotional. In 95% of cases, the cause is myofascial structures (Malanga, Cruz, Colon, 2010). A meta-analysis that looks through the treatment of this type of pain indicates exercise as a mandatory tool to address this problem. Specifying the type of motor activity is a condition for managing the pain. (Shipton, 2018) The aim of the study was to establish characteristic pathobiomechanical patterns in the mobility of the spine in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain. Methodology: A cohort study of 60 patients who complained of chronic nonspecific low back pain was performed. The indicators on which they were studied are the measurement of the mobility of the thoracic spine according to Ott, and the measurement of the mobility of the lumbar spine according to Schober. The relationship between the change in mobility in the different parts of the spine and the presence of chronic pain was studied. Conclusion: The results of the study showed statistically significant data that the change(alternate) in the mobility of each of the sections in the spinal column leads to an increase or decrease in mobility in the adjacent parts. In this study, in 2/3 of cases with chronic non-specific low back pain, there is an increase in the mobility of the lumbar region, which leads to instability and overwhelming of soft tissues in the area, and this leads to pain.
