Observational Study
The duration of chronic low back pain is associated with acute postoperative pain intensity in lumbar fusion surgery: a prospective observational study.
Pre-existing chronic pain has been associated with severe postoperative pain. In this study, we sought to prospectively analyse the association between the duration of chronic low back pain and the intensity of acute postoperative pain after lumbar fusion surgery. ⋯ The longer the duration of chronic pain was, the higher the incidence of moderate to severe acute postoperative pain was and the greater the amount of analgesics required after surgery.

Mean Canal-body Ratio among Specimens of Dried Lumbar Vertebrae in the Department of Anatomy of a Medical College: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.
Lumbar spinal canal stenosis is assumed to be one of the chief causative factors for low back pain. The measurement of lumbar canal and body dimensions has thus become an important tool for the diagnosis and treatment of spinal stenosis. This study aims to find out the mean canal-body ratio among specimens of dried lumbar vertebrae in a medical college. ⋯ anatomy; bones; lumbar vertebrae.

Prospective study. ⋯ Both methods are effective in the treatment of lumbar degenerative disease. Modified MIS-TLIF is a safe and effective procedure that can significantly reduce the occurrence of injury to the dura and nerve root during decompression and the interbody fusion procedure.Level of Evidence: 3.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Changes in Pain Self-Efficacy, Coping Skills and Fear Avoidance Beliefs in a Randomized Controlled Trial of Yoga, Physical Therapy, and Education for Chronic Low Back Pain.
We evaluated exercise interventions for cognitive appraisal of chronic low back pain (cLBP) in an underserved population. ⋯ All three interventions were associated with improvements in self-efficacy and catastrophizing among low-income, racially diverse adults with cLBP.
