   Sammanfattning : Manifestation of isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS), with a prevalence of 5% in the general population, varies from totally asymptomatic to severe disability. Although fusion has positive short-term effects, the long-term outcome of such treatment, as well as possible accelerated degeneration of adjacent segment discs (ASD) and its clinical significance, are unknown.

   Författare :Olle Hägg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Chronic low back pain; clinical outcome; global assessment; measurement; ; minimal clinically important difference; pain drawing; physical disability; predictors.;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Outcome of surgery for chronic low back pain should be documented ina standardised and reproducible fashion to establish evidence of its benefit. Measurement of outcome requires validated instruments, which have the ability to detect functionalchanges perceived as beneficial by the patient. LÄS MER

   Nyckelord :chronic musculoskeletal pain; pain intensity; disability; psychological distress; patient compliance; ability to work;

   Sammanfattning : The overall purpose was to assess factors that influence the experience of pain and disability due to acute low back pain (LBP) and chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP). A further purpose was to outline the conceptual framework behind pain—with emphasis on the spine—and its management in primary healthcare. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Background: Neck pain (NP) and low back pain (LBP) are common, disabling and extremely costly health issues in the industrial world, and the problem does not seem to be declining. Previously, it was thought that NP/LBP would resolve within three months; however, it is now well established that NP and LBP are both recurrent and episodic in nature. LÄS MER
