چکیده مقاله:
Background: Balance disorder is one of the most-studied fields in low-back pain patients (LBP). However, there isinsufficient information regarding the effect of LBP subgrouping on postural control. The purpose of the present studywas to compare postural control between subgroups of chronic nonspecific LBP and healthy subjects during lifting.Methods: A total of 35 men with chronic LBP (19 active extension pattern [AEP] and 16 flexion pattern [FP]) and 15healthy controls were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Pooled LBP was subdivided based on the O’Sullivan’sclassification system (OCS). The participants were asked to lift a box from the ground to the waist level and hold it for20 seconds. The load was 10% of the subject’s weight. Force plate system was used to record balance parameters,including standard deviations (SDs) of center of pressure (COP) amplitude and COP velocity in anterior-posterior andmedial-lateral directions and mean total velocity. The test was divided into two static and dynamic phases. Data wereanalyzed using one-way analysis of variance and independent t-test.Results: There were no significant differences between pooled LBP and control groups in any of the variables, exceptfor the SD of the anterior-posterior direction velocity in the X-plane in the static phase (P=0.017). After classifying LBP,the results showed that the healthy and AEP groups were significantly different in SD of COP velocity in the frontal plane(P=0.021), mean total velocity (P=0.010), and SD of COP velocity in the sagittal plane (P=0.039).Conclusion: The present study showed that postural control was not different between the pooled LBP and normalgroups. After classifying pooled LBP based on OCS, we found that the AEP showed different postural control ascompared to healthy controls in the dynamic phase. The FP and AEP exhibited different postural control relative to thehealthy controls in the static phase, and COP velocity was lower in those groups compared to the control group. Theresults of this study support the concept of LBP classification.

متن کاملChanges in postural and trunk muscles responses in patients with chronic nonspecific low back pain during sudden upper limb loading
Background: Alterations in the neuromuscular control of the spine were found in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP). Sudden loading of the spine is assumed to be the cause of approximately 12% of lower back injuries. However, some aspects of this problem, such as alterations in the sensory–motor control of the spine, remain questionable. This study investigated postural and neuro–motor...
