The goal of this clinical trial is to compare low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) with intra-articular steroid injections in participants suffering from chronic lower back pain as cause of facet joint arthritis (FJA). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Is LDRT non-inferior to intra-articular steroid injections in terms of pain reduction - Is there a difference in long-term pain reduction between LDRT and intra-articular steroid injections Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups.
This research study will help determine whether a medication called duloxetine can improve back pain. It is well documented that many participants who come to the ER with acute low back pain still have low back pain 3 months later. The investigator team will attempt to determine whether duloxetine can help prevent this.
Patients with non-specific low back pain will be compared to healthy, age- and sex-matched controls to determine the most discriminating back muscle characteristics and to delineate possible phenotypes of patients with non-specific low back pain showing impaired proprioceptive postural control. Additionally, the group of patients with non-specific low back pain will receive a 16-week, high-load proprioceptive training program. The effects of this training program on the different back muscle characteristics and proprioceptive postural control will be evaluated.
The biomechanical parameters studied in non-specific chronic low back pain patients in a locomotion task have so far focused on straight line walking. Although locomotion is primarily an automated action composed of repetitive patterns allowing movement from one place to another, walkers must respond to the environmental demands.These modifications show a flexible and adaptive approach to the constraints of the environment. In this study, the investigators are particularly interested in a task of crossing between two pedestrians, which is a standardised task that has shown its interest in the study of perceptual-motor co-ordination. In particular, it allows to study the mutual adaptation of speed and orientation between the two walkers.
This study will be conducted on 44 females with postpartum LBP & pelvic instability, selected from Dar of women hospital in port said to investigate effect of clamshell exercise on lumbo-pelvic stability and low back pain in postpartum women.
The study will be Randomized controlled trail, Subject diagnosed with low back pain meeting predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria will be divided into two groups. Pre assessment will be done using pain and disability as subjective measurement through Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) & modified Oswestry disability index and the lumber range by goniometer as objective measurement. One group is subject will be treated with therapeutic neuroscience education and core stability exercise and second group is core stability exercise. Each subject received 18 sessions with 3 treatments per week. Post treatment values recorded after the session.After data collection from defined study setting,data will be entered and analyzed at Riphah International University,Lahore
Pregnant women may experience pregnancy-related low back pain and this pain may negatively affect function. There are studies in the literature that Kinesiotape applications improve pain. There is no study examining the effect of Kinesiotape application in addition to exercise on pregnancy-related low back pain and function. At the end of our study, we will compare the effects of Kinesiotape application for a total of 8 sessions for 4 weeks on pain and function.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of a digital behavioral therapy for insomnia (dBTi) in people with chronic low back pain and insomnia. The main question it aims to answer is whether a 3 week period of dBTi can improve pain-related interference 6 weeks from commencement. Researchers will compare the treatment (dBTi) to an active control (Sleep health education modules) to see if there is a significant difference in outcomes at baseline and end-of-study (6 weeks).
The goal of this interventional study is to test the effects of trigger point dry needling to the low back in a healthy population. The main aims are to answer: - Is there a change in sensitivity to experimental pain after trigger point dry needling - To determine if there is an association between demographic and psychological factors and immediate changes in pain sensitivity after receiving trigger point dry needling. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups a dry needling group or a sham dry needling group. The dry needling group will receive trigger point dry needling to the lumbar spine. The sham dry needling group will receive needling to the lumbar spine with a sham needle which does not penetrate the skin. In other words, researchers will compare an intervention group and a sham group to see if dry needling has an immediate change in pain sensitivity in response to experimentally induced pain.
