The only outcome measure that had an ICC of more than 0.7 was the latency to first fixation (affective pain words ICC=0.73, general threat words ICC=0.72). When compared with pain-free controls, people with acute LBP looked more often at affective pain words relative to neutral control words. This may indicate a form of engagement bias for people with acute LBP. Attentional bias was not consistent across outcome measures or word groups. Further research is needed to investigate the potential role of attentional bias in the development of persistent pain.]]> Wed 05 Apr 2023 14:02:48 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37043 Tue 08 Aug 2023 10:05:37 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53402 Thu 23 Nov 2023 13:43:36 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53395 Thu 23 Nov 2023 13:36:24 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35785 Thu 21 Nov 2019 17:01:58 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49468 Thu 18 May 2023 14:33:56 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49453 Thu 18 May 2023 11:23:00 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35454 Thu 03 Feb 2022 12:18:45 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20056 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:00:13 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:18942 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:58:53 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30098 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:37:55 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38476 n = 2136, 96.4%), low back pain without specific etiology (n = 1,863, 84.1%), and chronic duration (n = 947, 42.8%). The quality of trials improved over time; however, most were at risk of bias. Less than half of the trials concealed allocation to intervention (n = 813, 36.7%), used intention-to-treat principles (n = 778, 35.1%), and blinded assessors (n = 810, 36.6%), participants (n = 174, 7.9%), and therapists (n = 39, 1.8%). These findings did not vary by the type of therapy. Conclusion: Most trials that test physical therapy interventions for low back pain have methodological limitations that could bias treatment effect estimates. Greater attention to methodological features, such as allocation concealment and the reporting of intention-to-treat effects, would improve the quality of trials testing physical therapy interventions for low back pain.]]> Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:05:09 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44793 Mon 24 Oct 2022 09:17:55 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54101 Mon 05 Feb 2024 09:35:39 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51932 Fri 22 Sep 2023 11:06:57 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51903 3 months) nonspecific low back pain from primary care and community settings. A total of 276 adults were randomized (in a 1:1 ratio) to the intervention or sham procedure and attention control groups delivered by clinicians at a medical research institute in Sydney, Australia. The first participant was randomized on December 10, 2015, and the last was randomized on July 25, 2019. Follow-up was completed on February 3, 2020. Interventions: Participants randomized to the intervention group (n = 138) were asked to participate in 12 weekly clinical sessions and home training designed to educate them about and assist them with movement and physical activity while experiencing lower back pain. Participants randomized to the control group (n = 138) were asked to participate in 12 weekly clinical sessions and home training that required similar time as the intervention but did not focus on education, movement, and physical activity. The control group included sham laser and shortwave diathermy applied to the back and sham noninvasive brain stimulation. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcome was pain intensity at 18 weeks, measured on an 11-point numerical rating scale (range, 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst pain imaginable]) for which the between-group minimum clinically important difference is 1.0 point. Results: Among 276 randomized patients (mean [SD] age, 46 [14.3] years; 138 [50%] women), 261 (95%) completed follow-up at 18 weeks. The mean pain intensity was 5.6 at baseline and 3.1 at 18 weeks in the intervention group and 5.8 at baseline and 4.0 at 18 weeks in the control group, with an estimated between-group mean difference at 18 weeks of -1.0 point ([95% CI, -1.5 to -0.4]; P =.001), favoring the intervention group. Conclusions and Relevance: In this randomized clinical trial conducted at a single center among patients with chronic low back pain, graded sensorimotor retraining, compared with a sham procedure and attention control, significantly improved pain intensity at 18 weeks. The improvements in pain intensity were small, and further research is needed to understand the generalizability of the findings.

The ICCs(2, 1) ranged from -.31 to.71. Reliability varied according to the outcome measure and threat word category. Sensory words had a lower mean ICC (.08) than either affective words (.32) or general threat words (.29). A longer exposure time was associated with higher test-retest reliability. All of the outcome measures, except second-run dwell time, demonstrated low measurement error (<6%). Most of the outcome measures reported high internal consistency (α >.93).

The primary outcome was pain intensity measured using an 11-point numerical rating scale, at baseline, 2 weeks, and monthly for 6 months. Data analysis was by intention-to-treat according to a prepublished analysis plan. Between May 13, 2015, and October 27, 2015, 160 patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to the intervention or usual care. We found no difference between groups for pain intensity over 6 months (area under the curve, mean difference = 6.5, 95% confidence interval -8.0 to 21.0; P = 0.38) or any secondary outcome. In the intervention group, 41% (n = 32) of participants reported an adverse event compared with 56% (n = 45) in the control group. Our findings show that providing education and advice and telephone-based healthy lifestyle coaching did not benefit patients with low back pain who were overweight or obese, compared with usual care. The intervention did not influence the targeted healthy lifestyle behaviours proposed to improve pain in this patient group.]]> Fri 03 Dec 2021 10:32:11 AEDT ]]>
