Journal ArticleDOI
Corticomotor control of deep abdominal muscles in chronic low back pain and anticipatory postural adjustments
TL;DR: LBP patients displayed an important alteration of the control of spine stability that can be explained by altered mechanisms of M1 motor programming, supporting that cortical changes underlie the altered postural control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Domains of Chronic Low Back Pain and Assessing Treatment Effectiveness: A Clinical Perspective.

TL;DR: The aim of this article is to discuss the current scientific understanding of pain and present why additional factors should be considered in conservative CLBP management, including information on how large a change must be for it to be considered “real" in an individual patient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability and minimal detectable change of transcranial magnetic stimulation outcomes in healthy adults: A systematic review.
TL;DR: It is underlined that the evidence about the reliability of TMS outcomes is scarce and affected by several methodological and statistical problems, and recommendations were made to level up the quality of future work in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corticomotor control of lumbar multifidus muscles is impaired in chronic low back pain: concurrent evidence from ultrasound imaging and double-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation
TL;DR: Findings support a plasticity of cortical maps controlling paravertebral muscles and likely including a different motor strategy for the control of MF, which may underlie impaired motor control of lumbopelvic spine and pain persistence in CLBP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic Review and Synthesis of Mechanism-based Classification Systems for Pain Experienced in the Musculoskeletal System.
TL;DR: Some pain categories were defined consistently, and despite the extensive efforts to develop global consensus on pain definitions, disagreement still exists on how each could be defined, subdivided, and their characteristic features that could aid differentiation.
