Non-specific low back pain

Journal ArticleDOI
Global Alignment and Proportion (GAP) Score: Development and Validation of a New Method of Analyzing Spinopelvic Alignment to Predict Mechanical Complications After Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery.

TL;DR: The GAP score is a new pelvic-incidence-based proportional method of analyzing the sagittal plane that predicts mechanical complications in patients undergoing surgery for adult spinal deformity and may decrease the prevalence of mechanical complications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact on health related quality of life of adult spinal deformity (ASD) compared with other chronic conditions.
Ferran Pellisé,Alba Vila-Casademunt,Montse Ferrer,Montse Domingo-Sabat,Juan Bagó,Francisco Javier Sánchez Pérez-Grueso,Ahmet Alanay,Anne F. Mannion,Emre Acaroglu +8 more
TL;DR: The global burden of ASD was huge compared with other self-reported chronic conditions in the general population of eight industrialized countries and warrants the same research and health policy attention as other important chronic diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pain measurement in patients with low back pain.
TL;DR: For the assessment of pain intensity, categorical scales with verbal descriptors or numerical rating scales seem to be preferable to traditional visual analogue scales, although no single best measure can be recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of low back pain and its effect on health-related quality of life in adolescents.
Ferran Pellisé,Federico Balagué,Luis Rajmil,Christine Cedraschi,M. Aguirre,Cesar G. Fontecha,Maribel Pasarín,Montse Ferrer +7 more
TL;DR: Low back pain in adolescents is a prevalent symptom with overall low associated disability and little effect on health-related quality of life and a subset of adolescents in whom LBP is associated with whole-body pain report significant impairment and deserve more attention.
