Summary

This study looked at 70 elderly women with long-term non-specific low back pain to see how their balance relates to disability, fear of falling, and social participation. Researchers measured balance, disability, and community involvement. The goal is to better understand these connections to improve fall prevention and rehabilitation strategies.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this research could help design better fall-prevention and rehabilitation programs for older women with back pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study, not a treatment trial. The findings may not apply to all elderly women or lead to direct clinical changes.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Inclusion criteria include independent ambulation with or without assistive devices and a clinical diagnosis of non-specific low back pain persisting for at least three months. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants presenting with specific low back pain due to identifiable organic or pathological causes-such as herniated discs, spinal infections, fractures, tumors, inflammatory arthropathies, or neurological disorders affecting balance or gait-will be excluded to maintain sample homogeneity. Additional exclusion criteria include recent lower limb orthopedic surgery (within the past six months), uncontrolled cardiovascular or metabolic diseases, uncorrected visual or vestibular impairments, and severe cognitive impairment (MMSE \< 24).
