Back Pain in Adolescents and Young Adults with Idiopathic Scoliosis-Identifying Factors Associated with Significant Pain-A Multivariate Logistic Regression Analysis.

(1) : Previous data show that patients with idiopathic scoliosis (IS) can be classified into two groups according to pain intensity. This paper aims to determine which factors can independently predict the likelihood of belonging to a high-level pain group. (2) : The study used a prospective, multicenter, cross-sectional design.

How back pain intensity relates to clinical and psychosocial factors in patients with idiopathic scoliosis.

Objective: A pain intensity of 3 can reliably distinguish idiopathic scoliosis (IS) patients with acceptable pain or not. This research aims to analyze psychosocial, family and quality of life differences in patients according to their pain status.

Material And Methods: Patients with IS, without previous surgery, Cobb ≥ 30° and age (12-40) were included in the study.

The Relationship of Kinesiophobia with Pain and Quality of Life in Idiopathic Scoliosis.

Study Design: Prospective, multi-centric, cross-sectional study.

Objective: To analyze the construct validity of the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) in a cohort of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).

Summary Of The Background Data: Back pain is not uncommon in AIS.

The association between sleep quality, low back pain and disability: A prospective study in routine practice.

Background: The objective of this study was to estimate the association between sleep quality (SQ) and improvements in low back pain (LBP) and disability, among patients treated for LBP in routine practice.

Methods: This prospective cohort study included 461 subacute and chronic LBP patients treated in 11 specialized centres, 14 primary care centres and eight physical therapy practices across 12 Spanish regions. LBP, leg pain, disability, catastrophizing, depression and SQ were assessed through validated questionnaires upon recruitment and 3 months later.
