Background contextLow back pain (LBP) is a common and disabling musculoskeletal disorder that often occurs in a working-age population. Determining the precise causation of LBP remains difficult.

Twenty-four studies met the inclusion/exclusion criteria and five were high-quality studies, including two case-controls and three prospective cohorts. Strong, consistent evidence was found for no association between occupational sitting and LBP. A moderate level of evidence was found for the absence of any dose-response trend. Risk estimates evaluating temporality were not statistically significant. Biological plausibility was not discussed in these studies. No evidence was available to assess the experiment criterion.ConclusionsThis review failed to uncover high-quality studies to support any of the Bradford-Hill criteria to establish causality between occupational sitting and LBP. Strong and consistent evidence did not support criteria for association, temporality, and dose response. Based on these results, it is unlikely that occupational sitting is independently causative of LBP in the populations of workers studied. 相似文献

Background ContextLow back pain (LBP) is a disorder that commonly affects the working population, resulting in disability, health-care utilization, and a heavy socioeconomic burden. Although the etiology of LBP remains uncertain, occupational activities have been implicated. Evaluating these potentially causal relationships requires a methodologically rigorous approach. Occupational repetitive and/or heavy lifting is widely thought to be a risk factor for the development of LBP.PurposeTo conduct a systematic review of the scientific literature to evaluate the causal relationship between occupational lifting and LBP.Study DesignSystematic review of the literature.SampleStudies reporting an association between occupational lifting and LBP.Outcome MeasuresNumerical association between different levels of exposure to occupational lifting and the presence or severity of LBP.MethodsA search was conducted using Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, OSH-ROM, gray literature (eg, reports not published in scientific journals), hand-searching occupational health journals, reference lists of included studies, and content experts. Evaluation of study quality was performed using a modified version of the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Levels of evidence were evaluated for specific Bradford-Hill criteria (association, dose-response, temporality, experiment, and biological plausibility).ResultsThis search yielded 2,766 citations, of which 35 studies met eligibility criteria and 9 were considered high methodological quality studies, including four case-controls and five prospective cohorts. Among the high-quality studies, there was conflicting evidence for association with four studies reporting significant associations and five studies reporting nonsignificant results. Two of the three studies that assessed dose-response demonstrated a nonsignificant trend. There were no significant risk estimates that demonstrated temporality. No studies were identified that satisfied the experiment criterion. Subgroup analyses identified certain types of lifting and LBP that had statistically significant results, but there were none that satisfied more than two of the Bradford-Hill criteria.ConclusionsThis review uncovered several high-quality studies examining a relationship between occupational lifting and LBP, but these studies did not consistently support any of the Bradford-Hill criteria for causality. There was moderate evidence of an association for specific types of lifting and LBP. Based on these results, it is unlikely that occupational lifting is independently causative of LBP in the populations of workers studied. Further research in specific subcategories of lifting would further clarify the presence or absence of a causal relationship. 相似文献

Background contextLow back pain (LBP) is a prevalent and costly musculoskeletal disorder that often occurs in the working-age population.

Eight high-quality studies reported on awkward occupational postures and LBP. Three were case-control studies, one was cross-sectional, and four were prospective cohort studies. There was strong evidence for consistency of no association between awkward occupational postures and LBP, with only two studies demonstrating significant associations in most of their risk estimates compared with six studies reported mainly nonsignificant associations. Two studies assessed dose response, with one study demonstrating a nonsignificant dose-response trend. Three studies were able to assess temporality, but all demonstrated nonsignificant risk estimates. Biological plausibility was discussed by two studies. There was no available evidence to assess the experiment criterion for causality.ConclusionsThere was strong evidence from six high-quality studies that there was no association between awkward postures and LBP. Similarly, there was strong evidence from three high-quality studies that there was no temporal relationship. Moreover, subgroup analyses identified only a handful of studies that demonstrated only weak associations and no evidence for other aspects of causality in certain specific subcategories. It is therefore unlikely that awkward occupational postures are independently causative of LBP in the populations of workers studied. 相似文献

Ten high-quality studies reported on bending and LBP. Five were case-control studies and five were prospective cohort studies. There was conflicting evidence for association, with five studies demonstrating significant associations in the majority of their risk estimates, but no evidence for consistency. Seven studies assessed dose response, with four studies demonstrating a nonsignificant dose-response trend. Four studies were able to assess temporality, but only one demonstrated significant risk estimates. Biological plausibility was discussed by two studies.

Conflicting evidence in multiple criteria was identified. This suggests that specific subcategories could contribute to LBP. However, the evidence suggests that occupational bending or twisting in general is unlikely to be independently causative of LBP. 相似文献

Background ContextLow back pain (LBP) is a common musculoskeletal disorder associated with a considerable social and economic burden within the working-age population. Despite an unclear etiology, numerous physical activities are suspected of leading to LBP. Declaring a causal relationship between occupational activities and LBP remains challenging and requires a methodologically rigorous approach.PurposeTo conduct a systematic review focused on assessing the potentially causal relationship between workplace manual handling or assisting patients and LBP.Study DesignSystematic review of the literature.SamplesStudies reporting an association between workplace manual handling or assisting patients and LBP.Outcome MeasuresNumerical association between different levels of exposure to manual handling or assisting patients, and the presence or severity of LBP.MethodsA systematic review was conducted using Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Occupational Safety and Health database, gray literature, hand-searching occupational health journals, reference lists of included studies, and content experts. The methodological quality of each study was assessed using a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for observational studies. The overall level of evidence supporting various Bradford-Hill criteria for causality for each category of manual handling or assisting patients and type of LBP was then evaluated. Studies were deemed of higher quality if they received a score of five or more on the modified NOS and used appropriate statistical analysis methods.ResultsThis search yielded 2,766 citations, and 32 studies met the eligibility criteria. Three high-quality studies reported on manual handling and LBP, including two prospective cohorts and one cross-sectional design. None demonstrated a significant association in most of their multivariate risk estimates. One study was able to assess dose-response and temporality, but its results did not support these criteria. Only one study discussed the biological plausibility of this association. Four high-quality studies evaluated assisting patients and LBP, including two case-controls, one cross-sectional, and one prospective cohort design. These studies were consistent in reporting no significant association. Two studies demonstrated a nonsignificant dose-response trend, and two studies discussed the biological plausibility of this association. No studies were able to demonstrate the temporality or experiment criteria.ConclusionsThe studies reviewed did not support a causal association between workplace manual handling or assisting patients and LBP in a Bradford-Hill framework. Conflicting evidence in specific subcategories of assisting patients was identified, suggesting that tasks such as assisting patients with ambulation may possibly contribute to LBP. It appears unlikely that workplace manual handling or assisting patients is independently causative of LBP in the populations of workers studied. 相似文献

Background
Low back pain (LBP) is the most prevalent musculoskeletal condition and one the most common causes of disability in the developed nations. Anecdotally, there is a general assumption that LBP prevalence in Africa is comparatively lower than in developed countries. The aim of this review was to systematically appraise the published prevalence studies conducted on the African continent to establish the prevalence of LBP in Africa. 相似文献13.

Healthcare costs for low back pain (LBP) are increasing rapidly. Hence, it is important to provide treatments that are effective
and cost-effective. The purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the cost-effectiveness of guideline-endorsed
treatments for LBP. We searched nine clinical and economic electronic databases and the reference list of relevant systematic
reviews and included studies for eligible studies. Economic evaluations conducted alongside randomised controlled trials investigating
treatments for LBP endorsed by the guideline of the American College of Physicians and the American Pain Society were included.
Two independent reviewers screened search results and extracted data. Data extracted included the type and perspective of
the economic evaluation, the treatment comparators, and the relative cost-effectiveness of the treatment comparators. Twenty-six
studies were included. Most studies found that interdisciplinary rehabilitation, exercise, acupuncture, spinal manipulation
or cognitive-behavioural therapy were cost-effective in people with sub-acute or chronic LBP. Massage alone was unlikely to
be cost-effective. There were inconsistent results on the cost-effectiveness of advice, insufficient evidence on spinal manipulation
for people with acute LBP, and no evidence on the cost-effectiveness of medications, yoga or relaxation. This review found
evidence supporting the cost-effectiveness of the guideline-endorsed treatments of interdisciplinary rehabilitation, exercise,
acupuncture, spinal manipulation and cognitive-behavioural therapy for sub-acute or chronic LBP. There is little or inconsistent
evidence for other treatments endorsed in the guideline. 相似文献

The objective of the study is to systematically evaluate the available evidence on the association between physical activity
(i.e. occupational load and non-occupational physical activities) and low back pain (LBP). A systematic approach was used
to explore the literature between 1999 and 2009. Studies were selected for inclusion following a comprehensive search of Medline,
Embase and CINAHL. The methodological quality of each study was assessed. Studies were considered to be of ‘high quality’
if they met the cut-off criterion of 60% of the maximum available quality score. Thirty-six cohort or case–control studies
were retrieved. Heavy workload and the accumulation of loads or frequency of lifts were moderate to strong risk factors for
LBP. Strong associations were found for flexed, rotated and the awkward positions of the lumbar spine. Inconsistent results
were found for leisure time physical activities, sports and physical exercise. Studies focusing on daily habitual physical
activities (e.g. domestic activities and commuting) in association with LBP are lacking. In conclusion, the occurrence of
LBP is related to the nature and intensity of the physical activities undertaken. However, physical activities can be subdivided
into separate types and intensities and the ultimate physical load is the sum of all these activities. This makes it difficult
to designate one particular activity as the cause of LBP. 相似文献

To describe the accuracy of clinical features and tests used to screen for malignancy in patients with low back pain. A systematic
review was performed on all available records on MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL electronic databases. Studies were considered
eligible if they investigated a cohort of low back pain patients, used an appropriate reference standard, and reported sufficient
data on the diagnostic accuracy of tests. Two authors independently assessed methodological quality and extracted data to
calculate positive (LR+) and negative (LR−) likelihood ratios. Six studies evaluating 22 different clinical features and tests
were identified. The prevalence of malignancy ranged from 0.1 to 3.5%. A previous history of cancer (LR+ = 23.7), elevated
ESR (LR+ = 18.0), reduced hematocrit (LR+ = 18.2), and overall clinician judgement (LR+ = 12.1) increased the probability
of malignancy when present. A combination of age ≥50 years, a previous history of cancer, unexplained weight loss, and failure
to improve after 1 month had a reported sensitivity of 100%. Overall, there was poor reporting of methodological quality items,
and very few studies were performed in community primary care settings. Malignancy is rare as a cause of low back pain. The
most useful features and tests are a previous history of cancer, elevated ESR, reduced hematocrit, and clinician judgement. 相似文献

Care from a general practitioner (GP) is one of the most frequently utilised healthcare services for people with low back
pain and only a small proportion of those with low back pain who seek care from a GP are referred to other services. The aim
of this systematic review was to evaluate the evidence on cost-effectiveness of GP care in non-specific low back pain. We
searched clinical and economic electronic databases, and the reference list of relevant systematic reviews and included studies
to June 2010. Economic evaluations conducted alongside randomised controlled trials with at least one GP care arm were eligible
for inclusion. Two reviewers independently screened search results and extracted data. Eleven studies were included; the majority
of which conducted a cost-effectiveness or cost-utility analysis. Most studies investigated the cost-effectiveness of usual
GP care. Adding advice, education and exercise, or exercise and behavioural counselling, to usual GP care was more cost-effective
than usual GP care alone. Clinical rehabilitation and/or occupational intervention, and acupuncture were more cost-effective
than usual GP care. One study investigated the cost-effectiveness of guideline-based GP care, and found that adding exercise
and/or spinal manipulation was more cost-effective than guideline-based GP care alone. In conclusion, GP care alone did not
appear to be the most cost-effective treatment option for low back pain. GPs can improve the cost-effectiveness of their treatment
by referring their patients for additional services, such as advice and exercise, or by providing the services themselves. 相似文献

BACKGROUND CONTEXT
About 85% of the patients with low back pain seeking medical care have nonspecific low back pain (NsLBP), implying that no definitive cause can be identified. Nonspecific low back pain is defined as low back pain and disability which cannot be linked to an underlying pathology, such as cancer, spinal osteomyelitis, fracture, spinal stenosis, cauda equine, ankylosing spondylitis, and visceral-referred pain. Many pain conditions are linked with elevated serum levels of pro-inflammatory biomarkers. Outcomes of interest are NsLBP and the level of pro-inflammatory biomarkers.PURPOSE
To unravel the etiology and get better insight in the prognosis of NsLBP, the aim of this study was to assess the association between pro-inflammatory biomarkers and the presence and severity of NsLBP.STUDY DESIGN
A systematic literature search was made in Embase, Medline, Cinahl, Webof-science, and Google scholar up to January 19th 2017.METHODS
Included were cross-sectional and cohort studies reporting on patients aged over 18 years with NsLBP, in which one or more pro-inflammatory biomarkers were measured in blood plasma. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale. A best-evidence synthesis was used to summarize the results from the individual studies, meaning that the included studies were ranked according to the consistency of the findings and according to their methodological quality score using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale.RESULTS
Included were 10 studies which assessed four different pro-inflammatory biomarkers. For the association between the presence of NsLBP and C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α limited, conflicting and moderate evidence, respectively, was found. For the association between the severity of NsLBP and CRP and IL-6, moderate evidence was found. For the association between the severity of NsLBP and TNF-α and RANTES Regulated on Activation, Normal T Cell Expressed and Secreted conflicting and limited evidence, respectively, was found.CONCLUSIONS
This study found moderate evidence for (i) a positive association between the pro-inflammatory biomarkers CRP and IL-6 and the severity of NsLBP, and (ii) a positive association between TNF-α and the presence of NsLBP. Conflicting and limited evidence was found for the association between TNF-α and Regulated on Activation, Normal T Cell Expressed and Secreted and severity of NsLBP, respectively. 相似文献18.
The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of paracetamol (acetaminophen) in the treatment of pain and disability
in patients with non-specific low back pain. We conducted a systematic review of randomized controlled trials to assess the
efficacy of paracetamol in the treatment of pain and disability in patients with non-specific low back pain. A search for
randomized controlled trials was conducted using the Medline, Embase and CINAHL databases. Trials were eligible if they were
randomized controlled trials comparing paracetamol to no treatment, placebo or another treatment in patients with non-specific
low back pain. Two of the authors independently assessed trials for methodological quality on the PEDro Scale and extracted
data. Continuous pain and disability data were converted to a common 0–10 scale; ordinal data were dichotomized (e.g., no
pain, pain). The data was analyzed using the MIX version 1.61 meta-analysis software. Out of 205 unique articles found in
the searches, 7 eligible trials were identified. The trials enrolled a total of 676 participants with 5 investigating acute
low back pain, 1 investigating chronic low back pain and 1 investigating both. No trial provided data comparing paracetamol
to placebo and only one trial compared paracetamol to no treatment. In general the trials were small (only 1 trial had >25
subjects per group) and of low methodological quality (only 2 had a score above 6 on the quality scale). All but one of the
trials provided imprecise estimates of the effects of treatment with confidence intervals spanning clinically important beneficial
and also harmful effects of paracetamol. No trial reported a statistically significant difference in favor of paracetamol.
There is insufficient evidence to assess the efficacy of paracetamol in patients with low back pain. There is a clear need
for large, high quality randomized controlled trials evaluating paracetamol, to provide reliable evidence of paracetamol’s
effectiveness in patients with low back pain and to establish the validity of the recommendations in clinical guidelines. 相似文献

The effect of physical activity on neck and low back pain is still controversial. No systematic review has been conducted on the association between daily physical activity and neck and low back pain. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between physical activity and the incidence/prevalence of neck and low back pain. Publications were systematically searched from 1980 to June 2009 in several databases. The following key words were used: neck pain, back pain, physical activity, leisure time activity, daily activity, everyday activity, lifestyle activity, sedentary, and physical inactivity. A hand search of relevant journals was also carried out. Relevant studies were retrieved and assessed for methodological quality by two independent reviewers. The strength of the evidence was based on methodological quality and consistency of the results. Seventeen studies were included in this review, of which 13 were rated as high-quality studies. Of high-quality studies, there was limited evidence for no association between physical activity and neck pain in workers and strong evidence for no association in school children. Conflicting evidence was found for the association between physical activity and low back pain in both general population and school children. Literature with respect to the effect of physical activity on neck and low back pain was too heterogeneous and more research is needed before any final conclusion can be reached. 相似文献
