Abstract Background Research suggests that individuals with low back pain (LBP) may have poorer motor control compared to their healthy counterparts. However, the sample population of almost 90% of related articles are young and middle-aged people. There is still a lack of a systematic review about the balance performance of elderly people with low back pain. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to understand the effects of LBP on balance performance in elderly people. Methods This systematic review and meta-analysis included a comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases for full-text articles published before January 2020. We included the articles that 1) investigated the elderly people with LBP; 2) assessed balance performance with any quantifiable clinical assessment or measurement tool and during static or dynamic activity; 3) were original research. Two independent reviewers screened the relevant articles, and disagreements were resolved by a third reviewer. Results Thirteen case-control studies comparing balance performance parameters between LBP and healthy subjects were included. The experimental group (LBP group) was associated with significantly larger area of centre of pressure movement (P < 0.001), higher velocity of centre of pressure sway in the anteroposterior and mediolateral directions (P = 0.01 and P = 0.02, respectively), longer path length in the anteroposterior direction (P < 0.001), slower walking speed (P = 0.05), and longer timed up and go test time (P = 0.004) than the control group. Conclusion The results showed that balance performance was impaired in elderly people with LBP. We should pay more attention to the balance control of elderly people with LBP.

Two independent reviewers screened the relevant articles, and disagreements were resolved by a third reviewer.Results: Thirteen case-control studies comparing balance performance parameters between LBP and healthy subjects and four randomised controlled studies on physical therapy to improve thebalance performance of elderly people with LBP were included. The experimental group (LBP group) was associated with significantly larger area of centre of pressure movement (P < 0.001), higher velocity of centre of pressure sway in the anteroposterior and mediolateral directions(P= 0.01 and P = 0.02, respectively), longer path length in the anteroposterior direction (P < 0.001), slower walking speed (P = 0.05), and longer timed up and go test time (P = 0.004) than the control group.Conclusion: The results showed that balance performance was impaired in elderly people with LBP.

STUDY DESIGN: Systematic review of the literature. OBJECTIVE: To perform a systematic review of the literature to organize, critical appraisal and select the best evidence available about the efficacy and safety of non-fusion fixation and its potential use for patients with degenerative disc, spinal stenosis and low back pain. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Recent reports have increased debate about the role of dynamic stabilization in the treatment of chronic back pain associated with lumbar disc degeneration and spinal stenosis. We conducted a systematic review of randomized trials through a more sensitivity search strategy and rigorous criteria applied for the type of studies. METHODS: An electronic search was made in the databases of the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Medline, Embase, and Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences (Lilacs) extended to November 31, 2008, with no linguistic restrictions. RESULTS: One randomized controlled trial that fulfilled the inclusion criteria described above was included in this review. CONCLUSION: The data included in this review show that the use of non-fusion stabilization could be a suitable alternative to another therapies in well selected patients with spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease. This review highlighted the need for continued research into the use of non-fusion stabilization in the treatment of spinal disorders. There is an urgency need to conduct randomized clinical trials. Long-term efficacy should be evaluated.
