BACKGROUND: Low back pain (LBP) is one of the most frequently occurring musculoskeletal disorders, and factors such as lifestyle as well as individual characteristics are associated with LBP.
BACKGROUND: Human Assumed Central Sensitization (HACS) is involved in the development and maintenance of chronic low back pain (CLBP). The Central Sensitization Inventory (CSI) was developed to evaluate the presence of HACS, with a cut-off value of 4...
PURPOSE: Tailored self-management support is recommended as first-line treatment for neck and low back pain, for which mHealth applications could be promising. However, there is limited knowledge about factors influencing the engagement with such app...

BACKGROUND: According to the T1ρ value of nucleus pulposus, our previous study has found that intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) can be divided into three phases based on T1ρ-MR, which is helpful for the selection of biomaterial treatment timing....
BACKGROUND: Self-management is endorsed in clinical practice guidelines for the care of musculoskeletal pain. In a randomized clinical trial, we tested the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-based self-management app (selfBACK) as an adjunct...
This paper presents an analysis of trunk movement in women with postnatal low back pain using machine learning techniques. The study aims to identify the most important features related to low back pain and to develop accurate models for predicting l...

OBJECTIVE: Paraspinal muscle segmentation and reconstruction from MR images are critical to implement quantitative assessment of chronic and recurrent low back pains. Due to unclear muscle boundaries and shape variations, current segmentation methods...
OBJECTIVE: Pain is a complex sensory and emotional experience that significantly impacts individuals' well-being. Lumbar radicular pain (LRP) is a prevalent neuropathic pain affecting 9.9% to 25% of the population annually. Accurate identification of...
