The correlation of trust as part of the therapeutic alliance in physical therapy and their relation to outcomes for patients with chronic low back pain
CONCLUSION: There appears to be a connection between trust and therapeutic alliance along with improved patient outcomes related to higher trust and therapeutic alliance scores in a cohort with chronic low back pain.PMID:38578206 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2024.2338428 (Source: Physiotherapy Theory and Practice)

Comparison of psoas major activation during standing hip flexion between chronic low back pain and healthy populations
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest a potential overactivation of the PM in the cLBP population. This insight may aid in the development of tailored rehabilitation programs.PMID:38578881 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230384 (Source: Journal of Back and Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation)

Impact of bilateral facet joint violation on radiographic degeneration of superior adjacent segments and clinical outcomes
CONCLUSIONS: FJV was associated with postoperative low-back pain and worse functional outcomes. It also aggravated facet joint and intervertebral disc changes in the superior adjacent segment, especially when bilateral violation occurred; this may be part of the mechanisms of adjacent-segment degeneration.PMID:38579351 | DOI:10.3171/2024.1.SPINE23841 (Source: Journal of Neurosurgery.Spine)

Spondylodiscitis after sacral colpopexy: diagnose early to treat earlier
Int J Clin Exp Pathol. 2024 Mar 15;17(3):90-95. doi: 10.62347/RERC7901. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTSpondylodiscitis following sacral colpopexy for Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) represents a rare complication with severe consequences. Authors performed a literature search, from 2000 to 2022, to set a narrative review of literature. Spondylodiscitis is an uncommon but dangerous side effect of a routine surgical treatment that needs to be identified and treated right away to prevent worsening clinical consequences. Suboptimal dissection of the sacral promontory and/or site infection are associated with spondylodiscitis. When spon...

The prevalence, incidence and management of low back pain with radiating leg pain in Dutch general practice: A population ‐based cohort study in the Rijnmond Primary Care Database
ConclusionLBP with radiating leg pain is common in Dutch general practice patients. About 2/3rd were prescribed pain medications. Dutch request few to none diagnostic imaging for these patients which is in line with clinical practice guidelines.SignificanceIn this new study, we have gained insights into the incidence and prevalence of LBP with radiating leg pain in Dutch general practice. Both remained fairly stable over the study period of 9 years (2013–2021). Overall, the care burden regarding seeking contact with the GPs and the requested diagnostics seem not to be that high. In 62% of the care episodes, there were...

Characteristics of electromyographic activity during yoga-applied stabilization exercises
Yoga exercise is widely performed as a treatment of low back pain and performance enhancement. Some yoga exercises are applied from general stabilization exercise (GSE) such as bridge exercises. The purpose of this study was to compare muscle activity during various types of GSE and yoga-applied stabilization exercise (YSE), and clarify characteristics of activity pattern during YSE.

Chronic Low Back Pain in Adults: Evaluation and Management
Am Fam Physician. 2024 Mar;109(3):233-244.ABSTRACTChronic low back pain, defined as lumbar pain persisting for 12 weeks or more, occurs in about 13% of U.S. adults. Patients with chronic low back pain should have a history and physical examination to identify red flags that may indicate serious conditions that warrant immediate intervention or yellow flags (i.e., psychological, environmental, and social factors) that indicate risk of disability. The examination should include an evaluation for radicular symptoms. Routine imaging is not recommended but is indicated when red flags are present, there is a neuromuscular defici...
