<h2>Summary</h2><h3>Background</h3> This study aims to estimate the burden, trends, forecasts, and disparities of early musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders among individuals ages 15 39 years. <h3>Methods</h3> The global prevalence, years lived with disabilities (YLDs), disability-adjusted life (DALYs), projection, inequality were estimated for MSK diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis (OA), low back pain (LBP), neck (NP), gout, other diseases (OMSKDs). <h3>Findings</h3>...
Low back pain is a significant health problem condition due to high prevalence among the general population. Emotions and physical factors are believed play role in chronic low pain. Kinesiophobia one of most extreme forms fear movement or re-injury. The purpose this study was investigate association between kinesiophobia intensity, disability quality life people with pain.The included 132 individuals pain, ages 18 65 years old. assessed using Tampa Scale Kinesiophobia, intensity measured...
Low back pain is a common condition that can be effectively treated by acupuncture. However, several treatment point prescriptions and further electrical needle stimulation (i.e., local acupoints, distal sensitized acupoints) may used. There an implicit yet unexplored assumption about the evidence on manual techniques.The present study aims to identify effectiveness of electroacupuncture (EA) acupuncture (MA) disability in patients with chronic nonspecific low back.This randomized controlled...
Previous studies have shown that acupuncture and electroacupuncture (EA) are effective in the treatment of patients with low back pain.

Patients more than three months duration recruited at Rehabilitation Center Taboao da Serra - SP (Brazil). After examination, sixty-six will be into two groups: group (AG) (n...
Objective The aim of the study was to compare effectiveness motor control training and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in relieving pain, reducing functional disability, improving transversus abdominis activation patients with lumbar disc herniation associated radiculopathy. Design This is a randomized controlled trial. Methods Forty diagnosed were randomly divided into two groups: group ( n = 20) 20). Interventions attended 60 mini sessions twice week for 8 wks, totaling 16...
Abstract Objective To compare the short-term effects of pulsed laser and continuous ultrasound on pain functional disability in women with chronic non-specific low back pain. Methods The sample was composed 100 volunteers randomly allocated into four groups: Pulsed Laser Group ( n = 26) treated 3 J/cm 2 ; Ultrasound 24; MHz) 1 W/cm Continuous (n 26; a Control 24), where patients were still waiting for treatment. Before after 10 sessions treatment, intensity assessed using visual analogue...
Exercise buddies (people to exercise together with) might support people with low back pain (LBP) become active. However, involving in randomised controlled trials (RCT) challenge recruitment, data collection and follow-up.
People experiencing low back pain (LBP) could potentially benefit from multimedia educational resources that integrate self-management strategies and improve awareness of the benefits staying active about medications offer limited benefits, such as paracetamol. Primary care waiting rooms are potential spaces for presenting health promotion to literacy through dissemination easily accessible information. This feasibility study aims explore conducting a large-scale trial investigate delivered...
Neck pain is the fourth worldwide leading cause of disability and represents 22% musculoskeletal disorders. Conservative intervention has been strongly recommended to treat chronic neck Telerehabilitation alternative for treatment conditions. There a lack high-quality research on effects telerehabilitation in patients with functional disability. Therefore, this study aims evaluate effect exercise program versus digital booklet only self-care information individuals non-specific pain.This...
Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions are the leading cause of disability and health costs in Australia worldwide yet MSK research funding continues to be substantially lower than other chronic with similar even overall disease burden. The underfunding musculoskeletal has left sufferers frustrated by increasing burden, worsening outcomes, complete overwhelm. People affected often lack support, certainty care due fundamental gaps slow or no implementation new research. Despite underfunding,...
