Objective. Detection of a lateral shift (LS) in patients with diagnosed disc herniation compared to healthy controls. Summary of Background Data. A specific lateral shift (LS) pattern is observed in patients with disc herniation and low back pain, as shown in earlier studies. Methods. Rasterstereography (RS) was used to investigate the LS. Thirty-nine patients with lumbar disc herniation diagnosed by radiological assessment and low back pain and/or leg pain (mean age 48.2 years, mean BMI 28.5, 28 males and 11 females) and 36 healthy controls (mean age 47.4 years, mean BMI 25.7, 25 males and 11 females) were analysed. LS, pelvic tilt, pelvic inclination, lordotic angle, and trunk torsion were assessed. Results. The patient group showed a nonsignificant increase in LS, that is, 5.6 mm compared to the healthy controls with 5.0 mm (p = 0.693). However, significant differences were found between groups regarding pelvic tilt in degrees (patients 5.9°, healthy controls 2.0°; p = 0.016), trunk torsion (patients 7.5°, controls 4.5°; p = 0.017), and lordotic angle (patients 27.5°, healthy controls 32.7°; p = 0.022). The correlation between pain intensity and the FFbH-R amounted 0.804 (p = < 0.01), and that between pain intensity and the pain disability index was 0.785 (p < 0.01). Discussion. Although some studies have illustrated LS with disc herniation and low back pain, the present findings demonstrate no significant increase in LS in the patient group compared to healthy controls. Conclusion. The patients with lumbar disc herniation did not demonstrate an increased LS compared to healthy controls. Other parameters like pelvic tilt and inclination seemed to be more suitable to identify changes in posture measured by RS in patients with low back pain or disc herniation.

Background- An observational study was conducted on 60 college going students experiencing nonspecific low back pain of mild to moderate range[ on VAS 2-5].  METHOD- Assessment of hamstring and IT band tightness was done by using 90-90 hamstring test and Ober’s test respectively. Participant were checked for tightness and marked whether tightness present or not RESULT- Analysis of outcomes was done by the mean and standard deviation. The result showed that, 58.33% male and 95.85% has female has hamstring muscle tightness.  16.66% Male and 22.91% female has of IT band tightness. 85% population [both male and female] shows of hamstring muscle tightness. While 85 % of male and females both shows hamstring muscle tightness. 21.66% populations [ both M and F] shows of IT band tightness. Conclusion- Study shows the prevalence of hamstring and IT band tightness is present in nonspecific low back pain.  In participant hamstring muscle tightness is more profound (85%) than IT band tightness (21.66%).

Este trabajo analizó la relación entre la posición de flexión mantenida durante la práctica de ciclismo y la posible relación con dolor lumbar. Se llevó a cabo una revisión sistematizada a través del proceso PRISMA® entre 2015-2020, en las bases de datos PubMed, PEDro, Scopus y Web of Science, empleando los términos; “cycling”, “cyclist”, “position”, “positioning”, “overuse injury”, “spinal biomechanic”, “lower back”, “lower back pain”. Se seleccionaron 5 artículos que cumplieron con todos los criterios de inclusión. Los artículos seleccionados mostraron cambios en la inclinación pélvica, ángulos de flexión de tronco en tomadas medias y bajas del manillar de bicicleta de ruta y bicicleta de montaña, variaciones del asiento más arriba o atrás de la posición adecuada según longitud entrepiernas, la posición de rodilla 40º y tronco 35º de manera simultánea cuando el pedal está en 180º, mientras que en posición anatómica se describieron; ángulo máximo de inclinación de pelvis en anteversión, ángulo máximo de inclinación de pelvis en retroversión y ángulo máximo de flexión lumbar se asocian con molestias o dolor lumbar. Sin embargo, es posible establecer que la asociación entre la práctica de ciclismo y el dolor lumbar no ha sido suficientemente estudiada, lo que nos hace inferir que surge la necesidad de actualizar la información con el objetivo de prevenir este tipo de lesiones asociadas a la posición en ciclismo.  Abstract. This article analyzed the relationship between the flexion position maintained during cycling and the possible relationship with low back pain. A systematic review was carried out through the PRISMA process between 2015-2020, in the PubMed, PEDro, Scopus and Web of Science databases, using the terms; "cycling", "cyclist", "position", "positioning", "injury from overuse", "biomechanics of the spine", "lumbar region", "low back pain". Five articles were selected that met all the inclusion criteria. Selected articles showed changes in pelvic tilt, torso flexion angles in medium and low strokes of the handlebars of the road bike and mountain bike, variations of the highest seat or the appropriate backrest according to the groin length, knee position 40 and trunk 35º simultaneously when the pedal is at 180º, while in anatomical position they have been described; The maximum angle of pelvic tilt in anteversion, the maximum angle of pelvic tilt in retroversion and the maximum angle of lumbar flexion are associated with pain or discomfort in the lumbar region. However, it is possible to establish that the association between cycling and low back pain has not been sufficiently studied, which leads us to infer that there is a need to update the information in order to prevent this type of injury associated with the position in cycling.

Background: Lower back pain still occurs in many cyclists. The sitting position is considered to be one of the factors causing complaints of low back pain. This study was conducted to determine the correlation between sitting position and complaints of low back pain in cyclists. Methods: This study employed the narrative review method by collecting ten research articles from the Google Scholar and PubMed databases, identifying keywords using the PEOs format, so that the keywords "Cyclist", "Sitting Position", "Lower Back Pain", and "All Study Design" were used. Results: All articles used were articles published starting in 2010. Seven articles stated that lower back pain occurred more frequently in a sitting position with large lumbar flexion. Six articles stated that the sitting position of a cyclist was affected by the position of the handlebars. Five articles stated that sitting with the lower handlebars resulted in greater lumbar flexion and anterior pelvic tilt. Five articles stated that prolonged lumbar flexion and anterior pelvic tilt resulted in a lower crossed syndrome. Four articles found that lower crossed syndrome contributes to lower back pain. Conclusion: There is a correlation between sitting position and complaints of low back pain in cyclists. However, there are limitations to the article which states that the statistical closeness of the correlation between sitting position and complaints of low back pain in cyclists.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to measure the anterior pelvic tilt for both males and females of low back pain patients.  STUDY DESIGN:  Observational type. PROCEDURE: 120 subjects were approached. In that 70 male and 50 females . Using i@handy application in mobile anterior pelvic tilt was calculated among low back pain patients.RESULTS: Anterior pelvic tilt was increased in low back pain patients . In that correlation between males and Visual analogue scale was not significant. But there was a significant correlation found in female anterior pelvic tilt and Visual analogue scale.CONCLUSION:  This study concluded that there was increase in anterior pelvic tilt among low back pain patients. Anterior pelvic tilt and Visual analogue scale was highly correlated in females not in males.KEYWORDS: i@handy, Anterior pelvic tilt, low back pain.
