The prognosis of acute low back pain is typically favorable; however, there is substantial variability in the clinical course of these patients. The possibility of identifying the probability of individual patients recovering at specific time points may be useful to clinicians in the decision-making process. A clinical prediction model was recently developed to predict the probability of …

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) is a non-pharmacological therapy often used in patients with LBP that decrease release of inflammatory mediators and accelerate muscle repair in different mu…

Meta-epidemiological studies have been performed in a large number of health-care fields. However, there are no studies investigating this issue in physical therapy interventions for low back pain. …
