Article Synopsis
- - The study analyzed the link between lumbar subcutaneous fat tissue thickness (LSFTT) and hernias in patients with low back pain, using data from 174 patients who underwent MRI at a hospital in Mexico.
- - Two radiologists diagnosed the hernias, with a third specialist providing additional validation, and the analysis included various statistical measures such as sensitivity and specificity for LSFTT in predicting hernias.
- - Results showed that higher LSFTT was associated with a greater likelihood of hernias, with the average LSFTT predicting overall presence of hernias, while specific intervertebral levels provided better predictions.
