Risk Stratification in a Tertiary Care Spine Centre: Comparison Between STarTBack and OSPRO-YF Screening Tools
CONCLUSIONS: STarTBack and OSPRO-YF are short screening tools with acceptable convergent and known-group construct validity and no floor or ceiling effect of their total score. Both tools could assist with the identification, evaluation, and management of psychological distress in patients presenting to tertiary care spine centres.PMID:37736380 | PMC:PMC10510560 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2021-0026

Does advanced imaging guide therapy
I’m a PMR/spine specialist and was curious if MRIs help you all when treating chronic neck and/ or low back pain? If so can you give specific examples of how it would guide your treatment plan in both the neck and low back.
Appreciate all that you do

Sensors, Vol. 23, Pages 8001: Deep-Learning-Aided Evaluation of Spondylolysis Imaged with Ultrashort Echo Time Magnetic Resonance Imaging
on C. Bae
Isthmic spondylolysis results in fracture of pars interarticularis of the lumbar spine, found in as many as half of adolescent athletes with persistent low back pain. While computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of spondylolysis, the use of ionizing radiation near reproductive organs in young subjects is undesirable. While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is preferable, it has lowered sensitivity for detecting the condition. Recently, it has been shown that ultrashort echo time (UTE) MRI can provide markedly improved bone contrast compared to conventional MRI. To take UTE MRI further,...

Beneficial and harmful effects of physical activity on care-seeking for low back pain: the AUTBACK study
ConclusionPeople who engage in higher baseline volumes of sedentary behaviour or physical activity in the household setting (e.g. housework, gardening, yard work, general household maintenance) utilise 1.6 times more care for LBP over 1 year. Findings suggest that higher volumes of these behaviours may be harmful for LBP. No intensities, volumes, or domains of physical activity demonstrated clear benefits for LBP. Where feasible, patients and clinicians should collaborate to screen and develop strategies to reduce engagement in sedentary behaviour or physical activity in the household setting. Contextual factors (e.g. pati...

Intrinsic variables associated with low back pain and lumbar spine injury in fast bowlers in cricket: a systematic review
ConclusionInconsistencies in results may be related to differences in study design, injury definitions, participant characteristics, measurement parameters, and statistical analyses. Low back pain and lumbar spine injury occurrence in fast bowlers remain high, and this may be due to an absence of low bias studies that have informed recommendations for their prevention. Future research should employ clearly defined injury outcomes, analyse continuous datasets, utilise models that better represent lumbar kinematics and kinetics during fast bowling, and better quantify previous injury, lumbar anatomical features and lumbar ma...

The Relationship between Pain Catastrophizing and Cognitive Function in Chronic Musculoskeletal Pain: A Scoping Review
CONCLUSION: Although evidence exists for the relationship between cognitive function and PC, there is a lack of rigorous research to indicate the strength of this relationship and the specific cognitive functions affected. The literature lacks appropriate populations needed to investigate clinically relevant PC and is limited by heterogeneous neuropsychological test batteries. Future research should include populations demonstrating the behaviors being studied, intentional analysis of outcomes, and appropriate cognitive tests.PMID:37719894 | PMC:PMC10505081 | DOI:10.1155/2023/5851450

The Value of < sup > 18 < /sup > F-FDG PET/MRI in Detecting Lumbar Radiculopathy for Selective Percutaneous Endoscopic Discectomy: a Case Report
Nucl Med Mol Imaging. 2023 Oct;57(5):247-250. doi: 10.1007/s13139-023-00797-3. Epub 2023 Mar 29.ABSTRACTMagnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most popular imaging modality for investigating intervertebral disc herniation. However, it has a high chance for identifying incidental findings that are morphologically or structurally abnormal but not responsible for patients' symptoms. Although a previous study suggested that 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) may help identify neuroinflammation in lumbar radiculopathy, there is currently no direct evidence obtaine...

The effect of the diaphragm stretching technique in the diaphragm contraction rate and trunk muscle activity in back pain patients
CONCLUSION: The diaphragm stretching technique improved the diaphragm contraction rate and trunk muscle activity was lower due to the improved trunk stabilization function of the diaphragm. Therefore, the diaphragm stretching technique can be recommended as a physical therapy intervention to improve pain in patients with low back pain.PMID:37718777 | DOI:10.3233/BMR-230141

Inhibition of PP2A ameliorates intervertebral disc degeneration by reducing annulus fibrosus cells apoptosis via p38/MAPK signal pathway
CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that the downregulation of PP2 A could reduce AF cell apoptosis and degeneration via the p38/MAPK pathway. It also revealed that the inhibition of PP2 A is expected to be a therapeutic target for IVDD.PMID:37722489 | DOI:10.1016/j.bbadis.2023.166888
